Job Description

The road construction project in Prospecton needs a safety officer who is on the site, not stuck in the container office. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

This post is Prospecton-based, with most of your time spent at a road construction project. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

The work, day to day

  • Compile and maintain the site health and safety file under the Construction Regulations 2014
  • Write and review risk assessments and safe work method statements
  • Run site inductions for every new worker and visitor
  • Hold toolbox talks on topics that match the week's work
  • Track PPE issues and replace damaged equipment
  • Inspect scaffolds, excavations and edge protection daily

Must-haves

  • SAMTRAC or an NQF-accredited health and safety qualification
  • You write clear reports in English
  • At least 2 years as a safety officer on construction sites
  • Confident enough to stop unsafe work, even when the programme is tight

Nice if you have

  • Fall protection planner training
  • Experience on renewable energy or high-rise projects
  • ISO 45001 internal auditor course

On offer

  • Laptop and data for reporting
  • Paid SACPCMP renewal and CPD
  • Clear growth path to a construction health and safety agent role
  • Travel and site allowances
