- Undertake HSS risk management activities, playing a key role in advising and coaching on hazard identification, risk assessments, and the development of elimination or control strategies.
- Actively monitor compliance and controls, and participate in verification, assurance, inspection and review activities as required.
- Actively manage self‑insurance and review injury claims, handling tasks such as providing status updates and estimates in collaboration with our insurer and injury management provider.

Qualifications

As a minimum, you will hold a Certificate IV in Work Health & Safety, along with 3 years of experience in an industrial‑based business that includes office/administration areas.

A natural collaborator, you will embody the qualities of a true health and safety business partner. A team player, it is crucial that you can work effectively within both local and remote teams, and make a positive impact on projects and safety cultures.

You should showcase outstanding listening skills, patience, and the ability to influence others while maintaining empathy.
