IKAD Engineering is a proudly owned Western Australian private company with a national and international footprint. We provide a broad range of Project Management and Engineering solutions across a wide variety of Industry Sectors including Defence, Industrial, Mining, Marine, Oil & Gas, and Water Technology.

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced and motivated HSEQ Coordinator to join our growing team. This is a diverse and rewarding role that will see you take ownership of the day-to-day coordination of our Business Management System (BMS) and play a key role in driving Health, Safety, Workplace and Quality excellence across the business.

A clear pathway to HSEQ Manager

This role is deliberately structured as a stepping stone. As you build your track record in the Coordinator position, there is a genuine and supported pathway to progress into the HSEQ Manager role — moving from coordinating and supporting the system to owning, leading and setting the strategic direction of HSEQ across the business.

The Coordinator role is about doing and supporting — coordinating the system day to day, gathering the evidence, and keeping things running. The Manager role is about owning and leading — setting direction, holding strategic accountability, and answering directly to the Directors. We want to hear from people who see this Coordinator role not as a ceiling, but as the first step.

Key Responsibilities

As our HSEQ Coordinator, you will be responsible for:

- Coordinating the company's Business Management System (BMS) and supporting ongoing compliance with ISO Standards and client requirements.
- Providing technical, legislative and regulatory advice to operational teams and senior management on HSEQ matters.




- Coordinating project and site-specific competency verification requirements.
- Coordinating internal audit schedules and supporting third-party certification and surveillance audits.
- Conducting surveillance audits across operational business sectors.
- Managing System Improvement Requests (SIRs) and Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs), including timely close-out and reporting.
- Monitoring, analysing and reporting HSEQ performance against established objectives and KPIs.
- Identifying opportunities for continual improvement across business operations.
- Maintaining the company's Technical Standards Library.
- Coordinating the development and maintenance of HSEQ Management Plans.
- Facilitating risk assessments and hazard identification activities.
- Coordinating incident investigations involving employees, contractors, clients and visitors.
- Supporting injury management and workers compensation processes.
- Promoting awareness of customer and compliance requirements throughout the company.
- Supporting the implementation and maintenance of HSEQ system requirements.
- Auditing external providers to ensure compliance with company and ISO requirements.
- Managing document control systems and associated registers.
- Supporting organisational change management activities to ensure the integrity of the BMS.
- Participating in and promoting a positive safety culture across the business.
