We are seeking a dedicated Workplace Health & Safety (WHS) Manager to help drive this mission forward. As our next WHS Manager, you'll be more than a safety professional – you'll be a catalyst for change, leading a comprehensive safety program that touches thousands of lives. Working at the intersection of operations and safety, you'll shape the future of workplace health while delivering real-time solutions that protect our most valuable asset: our people.
In this role, you'll serve as the site's safety facilitator, orchestrating our Global WHS Program with precision and passion. You'll partner with Operations leadership to weave safety into the fabric of our daily operations, using data-driven insights to create innovative solutions that reduce risk and enhance productivity. Your ability to build trust, influence change, and drive results will be crucial as you lead comprehensive risk assessments and transform safety data into actionable strategies.
Leadership is at the heart of this role. You'll build and develop a high-performing team of WHS professionals, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and excellence.
