Melbourne, Australia Thales Full time

At Thales, we know technology has the ability to make our world more secure, sustainable, and inclusive - and that it’s all driven by human intelligence.

Because it takes human intelligence to build and power the systems and solutions that people depend on every day. So we stay curious and make space for diverse points of view. We share what we know and we challenge what’s possible.

From manufacturing and engineering to cybersecurity and space, we’re driving progress in some of the world’s most important industries - and working together to build a future we can all trust.

Join us as we pave the path to safety and innovation across our key businesses within our Vehicle and Tactical System (VTS) segment that encompasses 4 units: Protected Mobility Vehicles, Australian Munitions, Integrated Weapon Systems, and Explosive Ordinance Services.

As a pivotal figure within our organisation, you'll spearhead the execution of our Australian HSE strategy within VTS, ensuring alignment with Thales' overarching vision.

Working either from our Melbourne Office in the World Trade Centre on Wurundjeri land or working from our Sydney HQ, Sydney Olympic Park, on Wann-gal land reporting to the Vice President HSE and supporting the Vice President Land, your role will
- Provide thought leadership and insight on HSE matters and considered advice, guidance and direction to the VTS leadership team consistent with leading industry practice, safety theory and the Thales ANZ HSE strategy

- Engaging proactively with our various State and Commonwealth regulators
- Collaborating with stakeholders to realise the Thales HSE vision
- Implementing and refining the Thales HSE Management System for continual improvement
- Championing HSE capability development programs for our leaders and teams
- Serving as the primary point of contact in VTS for HSE related regulatory matters
- Assuring compliance with statutory obligations and management system accreditations
- Managing HSE audit requirements and stakeholder reporting obligations

On day one in this role, we'll expect you to bring the following skills, experience and behaviours:

- Proven success in executing HSE strategy within complex organizations
- Experience in explosives, chemical industries or large-scale high-risk environments
- An understanding of Injury Management, Workers Compensation, and Health Promotion within the self-insurance environment
- Demonstrated capability in building strong working relationships and achieving outcomes through collaboration
- Proficiency in Major Hazard Facility regulation; 5+ years preferred.
- An understanding of environment sustainability topics in a European context is an advantage (REACH, CSRD & CDP)
- Demonstrated ability to influence stakeholders at all levels, from senior leaders to frontline staff
- OHS qualifications at AQF level 7 or above, environment credentials desirable
- Minimum 10 years of HSE experience, including 5 years in senior national roles
- Flexibility in work schedule, hours, and location (some work outside of traditional Australian business hours may be required)
- Ability to hold a Baseline Clearance

**As part of our commitment, we offer**:

- Competitive remuneration + Super + Bonus + Medical Insurance
- ThalesFlex - Hybrid work environment
- Recognised leader in reservist employee support
- Veterans Leave
- Fitness Passport Discount - Access to a network of Gyms across AUS
- Employee discounts with a number of affiliates (Travel, Car hire, Tech, Medical Insurance)
- Modernised Paid Parental Leave
- Novated Lease options
- Family support through our partnership with Parents at Work
- Personal & professional training development opportunities
- Sonder - Wellbeing & Support Partner
- Access to a network of the best people (A Noble Prize winner on our staff list)
- And much more

**Good to Know**

Prior to being offered employment, you will need to complete pre-employment police and (role dependent) medical checks.

It’s easy to dismiss the perfect opportunity if you don’t see yourself as the perfect fit. If this role feels right - no matter your background or personal circumstances - please introduce yourself or join our community. We’re committed to supporting a diverse workplace, and that starts here.

We’re proud to be endorsed by WORK180 as an Employer for All Women, but we know there’s always more we can do. We’ll continue to foster industry partnerships, employee resource groups (ERGs) and development opportunities to make Thales a genuinely equitable employer, for everyone.
