Details
:

Events ACT is seeking expressions of interest from existing ACTPS employees for a hands-on work health and safety (WHS) professional with strong administrative skills.

Are you keen to explore working in safety outside of the office environment?

Would you like to be part of delivering Floriade, Australia's biggest celebration of spring? We have a 5-week opportunity available whilst the substantiative occupant is on leave.

You will be part of a close-knit team supporting the safe delivery of Floriade 2024 and other community events delivered by Events ACT.

We are looking for a team player who has a passion for safety and educating internal and external stakeholders in safe work practices to ensure adherence with relevant safety legislation.

Reporting to the Assistant Director WHS, Events ACT, you will help to develop WHS documentation, including risk assessment safety plans, emergency management plans, standard operating procedures and other reporting documentation.

You will also conduct inspections, verifications and investigations as required.

The ideal candidate will have a good understanding of WHS legislation as it applies to the types of contractors we regularly engage with (for example, temporary structure installation, sound and lighting, electrical, plumbing and amusement rides to name a few) as well as a more general understanding and interpretation of WHS legislation in an office environment.

You need to be able to communicate professionally with external contractors and internal government stakeholders in a calm and confident manner.

A solid working knowledge of the Microsoft office suite of software, and the ability to learn quickly other software programs (e.g. SafetyCulture) is critical.

You need to be highly organised as there is a high degree of reporting and administrative work involved with this role.

Chief Minister, Treasury and Economic Development Directorate (CMTEDD) supports workforce diversity and is committed to creating an inclusive workplace.

As part of this commitment, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, people with disability, culturally diverse people and those who identify as LGBTIQ are encouraged to apply.

Eligibility/ Other Requirements: Previous experience operating in a WHS capacity and a qualification in WHS is desirable.
