This well established Tier 2 builder is looking for an experienced, proactive Safety Officer to lead the day-to-day health and safety operations on one of their premier inner-city projects. Located in the heart of Fortitude Valley, this $60M build demands a professional who thrives in high-density, fast-paced commercial construction environments.

As a crucial member of the site leadership team, you will drive a proactive safety culture, ensuring our systems, sub-contractors, and teams operate at the highest standards of compliance.

What We Are Looking For
This role sits squarely within our major projects division. To be successful, you must have a proven track record working directly with an established Tier 2 commercial builder. You know how to manage the pace, paperwork, and physical risks of a mid-to-high-rise commercial site seamlessly.

Key Responsibilities:

- Site Leadership: Oversee daily WHS compliance across the $60M site footprint, conducting regular audits and inspections.
- Culture Driver: Foster an environment where safety is integrated, not just policed—mentoring sub-contractors and site personnel alike.
- Systems Management: Maintain, review, and implement site-specific safety plans in accordance with Kane's strict safety management systems.
- Incident & Risk Management: Lead incident investigations, root-cause analyses, and manage SWMS (Safe Work Method Statements) reviews effectively.
- Stakeholder Management: Work hand-in-hand with the Project Manager and Site Manager to ensure tight construction schedules are met safely.

Your Skills & Experience:

- Minimum 3–5 years of experience as a WHS/Safety Officer in the Australian commercial construction sector.
- Essential:



Demonstrated experience working with a recognized Tier 2 commercial builder.
- Solid understanding of QLD WHS legislation, regulations, and codes of practice.
- Certificate IV or Diploma in Work Health and Safety (WHS) or Occupational Health and Safety (OHS).
- Exceptional communication skills—you can navigate a tough conversation on-site just as smoothly as writing a detailed compliance report for senior stakeholders.
- Experience navigating the logistical and safety constraints of high-density inner-city builds (e.g., traffic management, tight site access).

Why join this thriving business
Our client is a multi-award-winning, privately-owned Tier 2 commercial builder with a footprint spanning over 50 years. They pride themselves on low staff turnover, a flat management structure, and a collaborative work environment.
On this project, you will be given the autonomy to shape site safety while being backed by a highly supportive regional corporate management framework.
