The Opportunity

We are excited to welcome a new Health & Safety (HS) System Coordinator to our National Safety Team based in either our Head Office at Crows Nest or our Ingleburn Manufacturing site (or a mix of both sites).

• Review relevant legislation, codes of practice, organisational policies, Australian Standards and industry best practice to ensure RPF's HS ways of working continuously improve
• Support the implementation of a HS audit program
• Manage HS data collection, analysis and reporting
• Ensure relevant HS information and tools are accessible and maintained in self-service channels to drive employee and manager self-sufficiency where appropriate
• Build and maintain strong working relationships with business managers and staff to promote HS ways of working and to encourage participation in the process.
• Provide advice to line managers and staff on HS ways of working.
• Facilitate discussions with diverse stakeholders in the development and review of ways of working to incorporate key HS controls.
• Support key leaders, business units and functions with HS advice.

You will bring with you the following:

• Demonstrated experience in implementing effective change management projects, particularly across multiple sites within the FMCG/Manufacturing industry. Experience in food manufacturing sites is preferred.
