Senior Construction Safety Manager, WHS Construction Safety

Job description

At Amazon, safety is our top priority. We are looking for a Senior WHS Construction Manager to own construction safety across a region. In this role you set construction-safety standards and programs, hold vendors accountable across multiple concurrent projects, and drive compliance from contractual agreement through project close-out. You develop the standard operating procedures that scale safe construction across the network.

Key job responsibilities

- Own construction-safety standards and programs across a region and multiple concurrent projects.

- Establish and enforce H&S compliance within vendor contractual agreements.

- Develop standard operating procedures that scale safe construction across the network.

- Run vendor business reviews and use data and metrics to drive continuous improvement.

- Present regional construction-safety performance and risk to senior stakeholders.

A day in the life

You own the construction-safety agenda for a region spanning multiple countries and projects. Your day mixes program work - writing standards and SOPs, running vendor business reviews, analysing safety performance - with hands-on judgement on the highest-risk construction activity. You partner with commercial, project and vendor leaders to build safety into contractual agreements, and you present regional safety performance and risk to senior stakeholders.

You set the approach that construction managers and vendors across the region follow.
