Health and Safety Business Partner

About The Opportunity

With safety prioritised above all else at Boral, we look out for each other and are committed to zero harm across our vast, vertically-integrated national business. An opportunity exists for a proactive and energetic Health & Safety Business Partner to join our national Health and Safety team, supporting our NSW Southern Region Concrete and Quarries business.

Reporting to a Business Unit General Manager and Head of Business Partnering Health and Safety, your primary focus is to support our Southern Region NSW Concrete and Quarries Business ensuring that business unit level issues are understood, controls are implemented and compliance and assurance measures reviewed. Working closely with the frontline, this is a key role in delivering strong alignment between operational risks and health and safety controls and will enable safety improvements and standardisation of processes across our network of NSW Quarries and Concrete Plants.

Operating as a true business partner, you will enjoy the opportunity to travel to various Quarries and Concrete Plants regularly to engage with leaders and employees on site, gaining a deep understanding of their challenges. This role involves creating learning opportunities from issues and incidents to enable more effective performance. Building strong relationships with stakeholders to deliver positive safety outcomes is essential.

This is a permanent, full-time role requiring flexibility to travel within Southern NSW, including the South Coast, Canberra, and Southern Highlands. A motor vehicle allowance will be provided. This is not a FIFO role, allowing you to enjoy weekends with your family.
