Senior WHS Advisor / Consultant
At WCA Solutions, we work alongside organisations to build safer, stronger and more capable workplaces.
As one of Western Australia's leading WHS consulting practices, we write and deliver safety systems and provide trusted advice across a genuinely diverse portfolio, partnering with clients in mining, construction, government, Aboriginal corporations, not-for-profits, professional services and beyond to solve their most complex workforce and safety challenges.
We're looking for a Senior WHS Advisor / Consultant to join our team and play a central role in that work.
A different kind of WHS role
This is not a site-based role, and it isn't an implementation role.
You won't be embedded on a single project managing the day-to-day rollout of someone else's system.
This is a systems design role, you'll be the one architecting the Safety Management Systems, frameworks and solutions our clients rely on.
You'll sit at the front end of the thinking, designing what good looks like and then handing clients a system built to work in their world.
And because you'll do this across a wide range of clients and industries, no two weeks look the same.
Your expertise compounds quickly, your advice genuinely shapes outcomes, and you'll see the difference your work makes across multiple organisations rather than a single site.
For the right consultant, that's the appeal: the intellectual challenge of designing safety systems from the ground up, rather than administering or maintaining them.
