Job Overview

We are seeking a highly motivated and proactive Safety Manager to lead the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of safety programs across a multi-site organization.

This role is ideal for a builder-someone who can create, develop, and scale safety initiatives from the ground up while partnering with operational leaders across multiple locations.

The Safety Manager will spend the majority of their time traveling to field locations, conducting safety assessments, coaching leaders, identifying risks, developing corrective action plans, and driving a culture of safety throughout the organization. This individual must be comfortable creating processes, policies, training programs, and accountability systems rather than simply maintaining existing programs.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the continuous improvement of safety programs, policies, and practices across all locations

  • Travel extensively to field operations to assess safety performance, identify risks, and drive improvement initiatives

  • Conduct safety audits, inspections, and risk assessments to support compliance and operational excellence

  • Partner with operational leaders to strengthen safety accountability and integrate best practices into daily operations

  • Investigate incidents, determine root causes, and implement corrective and preventive actions

  • Develop and deliver safety training programs that increase employee engagement and reinforce a strong safety culture

  • Monitor safety metrics and trends, providing recommendations that reduce risk and enhance performance

  • Ensure compliance with OSHA and other applicable regulatory requirements

  • Serve as a trusted advisor to leadership on safety-related matters and operational risk management

  • Promote a proactive safety culture focused on prevention, accountability, and continuous improvement

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of safety leadership experience in field services, construction, transportation, manufacturing, or other multi-site operational environments

  • Proven track record of improving safety performance, reducing incidents, and driving cultural change

  • Strong knowledge of OSHA regulations, compliance requirements, and safety management systems

  • Experience conducting audits, inspections, investigations, and root cause analyses

  • Ability to influence and coach leaders and employees at all levels of the organization

  • Strong communication, training, and presentation skills

  • Experience leveraging data and performance metrics to identify opportunities and drive improvements

  • Ability and willingness to travel 60-80%

Key Attributes for Success

  • Continuous Improvement Mindset - Actively seeks opportunities to strengthen safety programs and reduce risk

  • Influential Leadership - Builds trust and drives accountability through coaching and collaboration

  • Field & Operational Focus - Engages directly with field teams to understand challenges and implement practical solutions

  • Data-Driven Problem Solver - Uses safety data and trends to prioritize actions and measure success

  • Collaborative & Results-Oriented - Works cross-functionally with operations, HR, and risk management teams to deliver sustainable improvements

Pay Details: $90,000.00 to $100,000.00 per year
