You will have the opportunity to demonstrate your passion and commitment to workplace health and safety by delivering on safety communication and support activities, maintaining safety policy, procedural and data records, and contributing proactively to the maintenance of the DSTG Safety Management System (SMS).
You will be supported to achieve a healthy work life balance with access to flexible work arrangements and well-being initiatives.
In this role you will:
- Contribute to the implementation and continuous improvement of the DSTG Safety Management System (SMS).
- Coordinate statutory consultative functions, such has health and safety committees (HSCs).
- Coordinate and implement safety training activities across DSTG.
- Coordinate and update safety content and materials across a range of platforms including intranet, service desk, and training platforms.
- Coordinate and lead the change management process for the safety team of the centralised safety records ensuring data is easily recalled to meet legislation and Defence policy requirements.
- Develop and coordinate the annual Safety Month program for DSTG.
- Undertake procurement and financial support for the Safety Team.

- Work collaboratively with key stakeholders across DSTG and Defence to build positive relationships and actively participate in team activities.
**About our Team**
WHS is about supporting our people and ensuring their health and safety in the workplace inclusive of physical and psychological health and safety. To achieve this, our DSTG People Pillar in the More Together Strategy commits us to nurturing a respectful, adaptive, safe and inclusive culture where people feel valued and can thrive. The Chief Defence Scientist (CDS) has committed DSTG to creating the right behaviours and culture for safety, “it is what we do that matters”. The Enabling WHS Capability team (Safety team) works collaboratively across DSTG to support the achievement of this commitment.
The Safety team engages with researchers from all areas of DSTG and partner to achieve better safety outcomes for Defence research work through the delivery of professional safety advice and assistance.
In a recent review of our enabling safety capability model, the safety function was divided into two streams comprising Safety Operations, and Safety Strategy and Assurance. The streams work closely and cooperatively together, but with some distinct accountabilities.
Safety Operations is delivered through two regional teams based in Port Melbourne, Victoria and Edinburgh, South Australia. Current vacancies are for safety advisors based in Port Melbourne and Edinburgh, with some necessity for travel to other regional sites in the ACT, NSW and TAS as well as regional Victoria.
The Strategy and Assurance team leads the ongoing development of the DSTG Safety Management System (SMS) and is responsible for the development and implementation of the Group safety assurance framework.
The Operations team is responsible for supporting researchers to implement the SMS in a consistent way across their specific programs of work. It does this through the provision of professional health and safety advice and assistance, through reach back to hazard specialists, and through a continuous improvement approach to the SMS to support a fit for purpose and compliant SMS.
People enjoy working with our team because we share knowledge and grow as a team. We engage with research capabilities and provide the opportunity to share best practice in research safety across multiple capabilities and across many unique hazards and risks not found elsewhere. Our team works strategically to influence safety best practice across Defence.
To be successful in this role, demonstration of the following skills, knowledge and experience will be well regarded:
- A team player with a willingness to share learning and support peers.
- Passionate about Safety.
- Previous experience as a member of a WHS team in a research or novel high risk environment, or government agency.
- Very good written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate with clarity, listen, understand,
