We develop, promote, and manage the conduct of thoroughbred horse racing in Victoria to safeguard its integrity. RV also oversees Racing.com Media (RDCM), which creates and distributes racing media content.

About the Role

We are currently seeking a Health & Safety Coordinator who will play a key role in fostering a safe, healthy, and compliant workplace across RVG.

  • Develop, coordinate, and deliver health and safety training to RVG employees.
  • Build strong relationships across business units and the wider industry to promote engagement and accountability in safety practices.
  • Support managers in understanding and complying with their OH&S responsibilities.

About You

  • Knowledge of OH&S legislation, compliance, and management systems.
  • Demonstrated experience coordinating safety committees, training, and emergency procedures.
  • Ability to analyse data and prepare reports on safety performance metrics.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to influence and engage stakeholders at all levels.
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • A collaborative and proactive mindset with a focus on continuous improvement.
