About Them
We are partnering with a well-established workplace consultancy to recruit a Health and Safety Advisor to join their Sydney-based team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone early in their WHS career who is ready to take the next step into a specialist role with a focus on technical content, documentation, and practical application.
About the Role
This role sits within a collaborative team that supports both internal colleagues and external clients. You’ll help develop high-quality WHS documentation, translate legislation into user-friendly resources, and play a part in shaping the safety content that supports organisations across Australia and New Zealand.

You’re an emerging WHS professional with a strong foundation and a desire to grow. You’re detail-oriented, enjoy writing, and have a knack for making complex information easy to understand. You’re collaborative, proactive, and keen to build a long-term career in health and safety.
To be considered, you’ll have:
- A Bachelor’s degree in Work Health & Safety (or related discipline), no prior WHS experience required, or
- A Diploma or Cert IV in WHS plus 2–3 years’ experience in a WHS administration, coordination, or support role.
- Strong written communication skills and attention to detail
