- Program Management: Monitor safety metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs) to evaluate effectiveness and report trends to senior leadership.
- Regulatory Reporting: Stay current on emerging industry standards, technologies, and regulatory changes impacting construction safety.
- Field Oversight: Conduct safety inspections and comprehensive audits to identify hazardous conditions or non-compliant behaviors.
- Team Education: Facilitate safety orientations for new hires, and specialized training (e.g., fall protection, scaffolding, or confined spaces).
- Incident Management: Lead the investigation of any accidents or near-misses, perform root-cause analysis, and document findings to prevent future occurrences.
- Compliance: Maintain all required OSHA documentation, including 300 logs, and ensure the project remains in total compliance with safety legislation.
- Stakeholder Coordination: Act as the primary point of contact for insurance carriers, OSHA inspectors, and internal leadership regarding safety metrics.
BACKGROUND & EXPERIENCE EXPECTATIONS:

- Current First Aid/CPR/AED certification.
KEY SKILLS
- Technical Proficiency: Ability to use safety management software (like Procore) for reporting and tracking.
- Communication: Strong ability to relay complex safety protocols clearly to diverse groups, from field laborers to executives.
- Problem Solving: Quick thinking to mitigate immediate hazards without halting project momentum unnecessarily.
Salary Range: $105,000 - $135,000. Individual pay will be based on several factors including experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities of the applicant.
