Go beyond. Leave a legacy. Arafura is developing the Nolans Project, Australia's first ore-to-oxide integrated processing facility in the Northern Territory, a greenfield operation producing the rare earths that will enable the global energy transition and future facing technologies. We are moving into delivery and construction, and we are looking for a Senior Advisor reporting to the Site Manager to own health and safety assurance for the Owner's Team on site. This is a 15/6 FIFO role based at Nolans, on the ground where the work is happening. Nolans is being built under an EPCM model with a small Owner's Team. The Project and its contractors do the work and are responsible for the safety of their own people. This is a second line assurance role where you provide verification and assurance over how our EPCM implements and manages the Project safety systems and processes, and how its contractors work to them. What you'll deliver
• A planned program of field verification, inspections, audits and critical control verification across the Areas, weighted to the highest consequence risks
• Assurance that Hatch's contractor safety management is working in practice, covering prequalification, mobilisation, competency and verification of competency, inductions, permit to work and performance management




• Verification that project contractors are using the agreed Project systems for incident and hazard reporting, action tracking and permit to work
• Assurance over incident investigations, and follow-up on site to confirm the fixes are working
• Compliance registers, evidence and reporting that give the Site Manager and project leadership a clear view of findings, trends and early indicators of emerging risk What you'll bring
• Demonstrated experience verifying compliance and contractor performance on major resources, infrastructure, energy or industrial construction projects
• Experience working within an Owner's Team on EPCM led projects, ideally in a second line assurance role
• Strong knowledge of work health and safety legislation and duties, including Northern Territory requirements and the duties of a Principal Contractor and PCBU
• Experience with critical control verification and high consequence construction risk
• Experience leading or assuring incident investigations using a recognised methodology such as ICAM
• Able to hold a transparent line on standards while leaving the work with the people accountable for it, and to bring people with you through credibility and strong working relationships If this role sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.
