Project Safety Manager

About the team


In Hengelo, The Netherlands, Thales develops advanced radar and combat management systems. The System Engineering department is responsible for the design of new products and for managing software and hardware development. Within this department, specialists from the Product HSE/safety engineering team are involved in all development projects, from bid phase until system setting-to-work.



About your future job


Safety engineering is an important and integral part of the design process of our high-end products and systems-of-systems. In your role as a senior project safety manager you will be responsible for the overall coordination of safety activities in a large development project context.


Your main objective is to manage all necessary activities to meet the project’s contractual and legal safety obligations. You will be the general point of contact for safety matters for the customer, for applicable subcontractors and for the Thales Naval development organization. In the Thales Naval development organization, you will interact with system architects, safety specialists, system engineers and others who are system safety stakeholders.


You will also be interacting with the customer to discuss and align safety matters. Your risk-based project management and communication skills enable you to connect with all stakeholders efficiently, and you feel confident when communicating in the English language.


Your experience allows you to adequately assess and face all safety related challenges that come with a large development project of a technical complex system. Your knowledge of and experience with system engineering principles, (functional) safety methods, standards and legislation in a system safety context have been well developed during your previous assignments in your career.

  • Align safety-related activities for your project in the engineering organization;

  • Report, advise and decide on integral safety issues and safety strategies in the project;

  • Manage the overall project safety case and make sure it gets complete and accepted.


The role allows you to further develop your project management and safety engineering skills. Since Thales in Hengelo is a large organization, future career switches might be possible.
