We’re pleased to be partnering with this ASX listed construction and manufacturing business during a significant transformation and growth phase. With operations nationally and a strong footprint across high-risk operational environments, the organisation is investing heavily in leadership capability, systems, culture and operational excellence.

An opportunity has arisen for an experienced Safety Manager to join the Victorian operations team, supporting three key sites in Melbourne’s western suburbs and regional Victoria. Reporting to the General Manager HSEQ, this role will play a critical part in uplifting safety culture, strengthening leadership capability and driving a more connected, engagement-led approach to safety across the business.

This is a highly visible, site-based leadership role suited to someone who enjoys partnering closely with operational leaders, building trust with frontline teams and influencing cultural change. A fully maintained company vehicle is included due to regular travel requirements between the three sites.
 
What we’re looking for:

• Demonstrated safety leadership experience within heavy industry, manufacturing, construction or similarly high-risk operational environments;

• Strong engagement and influencing capability with the ability to build credibility across both site-based and corporate stakeholders;

• A coaching approach to safety leadership rather than a purely compliance-driven style;

• Experience working across multi-site operations;

• Practical understanding of contractor management, high-risk work environments and operational risk reduction; and

• Relevant safety qualifications and a contemporary understanding of workplace health and safety legislation.

Benefits on offer:

• Join a well-known ASX listed business during a major transformation phase;

• Opportunity to shape safety culture and influence long-term operational change;

• Partner directly with operational leadership and report to a highly regarded leader in HSEQ;

• Competitive remuneration package including company vehicle;

• Genuine autonomy and opportunity to make a measurable impact across Victorian operations; and

• Flexible working arrangements available.
