  • Make an immediate impact and gain valuable experience in an engaging, operationally diverse environment
Key Responsibilities
  • Coordinate day-to-day health and safety activities across the site
  • Maintain compliance records, incident registers, and risk assessments
  • Support onboarding processes through Rapid – ensuring training, licences, and PPE are current
  • Conduct safety walks, toolbox talks and contribute to team-based risk management activities
  • Assist in preparation for ISO 45001 and 14001 audits
  • Support the transition to a new site opening later in the year, ensuring safety readiness from day one
  • Work collaboratively with operational, retail and facilities teams to maintain high safety standards
About You
  • Minimum Cert IV in WHS (or working towards it)
  • 2–5 years’ experience in a similar health and safety role
  • Familiarity with ISO management systems (45001/14001) and incident management processes
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build trust and influence across teams
  • Highly organised, detail-oriented and able to work independently with minimal supervision
  • Previous experience using Rapid or similar systems for onboarding and compliance (advantageous)
Next Steps
If you're an up-and-coming safety professional looking to broaden your experience in a hands-on, fast-paced role with genuine career potential, I would love to hear from you.
