Job Description

The Opportunity

At Veolia, safety isn't a checkbox — it's a culture. And we need someone like you to help us live it. If you're the kind of safety professional who'd rather be out in the field coaching teams than sitting behind a desk, and you genuinely believe that every person deserves to go home safe, keep reading.

We're looking for an experienced Health and Safety Advisor to join our SHEQ team and become a trusted partner to our operational leaders in Kurnell 2231. This is a predominantly field based role (80% of your time), meaning you'll be where it matters most — on site, building relationships, influencing behaviours, and driving real safety outcomes.

This isn't a tick and flick compliance role. It's a genuine opportunity to shape safety culture, mentor frontline teams, and make a measurable difference across our operations.

What's on offer

• Drive safety excellence & protect people in a vital, field based role at Sydney's Deslination Plant in Kurnell
• Generous paid parental leave, super contributions, and bonus programs
• Be part of a team that believes every person deserves to go home safe

What you'll be responsible for

• Conducting inspections, audits and walk-throughs to monitor compliance with company, client and legislative requirements
• Coaching and supporting operational teams to identify, address and close out safety findings
• Facilitating incident investigations and risk assessments
• Delivering SHEQ training and toolbox talks
• Supporting the development and maintenance of site safety management plans
• Implementing drug & alcohol testing programs
• Monitoring and reporting on safety performance and key risk factors
• Collaborating with operations on the safe installation and use of new equipment

What you'll need to be successful

• Formal qualification in OH&S or significant hands-on experience in a comparable safety role
• Solid working knowledge of relevant safety legislation, including Chain of Responsibility
• Demonstrated experience implementing safety management systems
