RACV Head Office | Melbourne CBD
- Permanent full time
- Competitive Salary | Discounts on RACV products

**Great things start here**

RACV has a strong safety culture and is committed to maintaining a safe and healthy environment for our staff, contractors and customers.

We have an opportunity for a dynamic Health, Safety and Wellbeing leader looking to grow their experience across a wide range of operations including hospitality, roadside services, contact centres, towing & transport, solar installation, and home trades.

Key to your success will be strong stakeholder engagement utilising excellent interpersonal skills and being able to balance strategic thinking with operational execution.

**About the Opportunity**

**This could be just the right role for you**

You will be accountable for the development and implementation of strategies to effectively manage HSW compliance and continuously improve HSW performance within the RACV Group.

Key responsibilities
- Having direct HSW responsibility for RACV whilst ensuring alignment of HSW strategy and culture across the RACV Group
- Ensuring frameworks, policies, systems, and tools are in place to effectively manage HSW risk and comply with regulatory requirements
- Achieving ISO45001 compliance
- Continually improving the RACV safety management system
- Overseeing the HSW internal audit assessment program
- Setting and reporting on HSW metrics and improvement plans
- Provision of advice and assistance to RACV Subsidiaries and Associates
- Overseeing effective Early Intervention, Return-to-Work and Workers Compensation management programs
- Maintaining RACV’s WorkCover self-insurance status in Victoria
- Coordinating the “Healthy Me at RACV” wellbeing program
- Leading a skilled and experienced HSW team

**What you’ll need to be successful**
- Tertiary qualifications in OHS/HR or related discipline
- Demonstrated experience leading a safety team within a medium-large corporate organisation
- Proven track record in achieving outstanding health and safety outcomes
- Strong understanding of relevant OHS legislation, Australian Standards and Codes of Practice
- Strong stakeholder management experience and well-developed communication skills
- Victorian Driver’s license

Given the breadth of RACV’s business, having a demonstrated ability to thrive in different operating environments is more important that specific industry experience. Self-insurance or ISO45001 accreditation experience will be an advantage but is not essential.

**Our Values**

Our values of Innovation, Accountability, Care & Teamwork genuinely define the way we approach Health, Safety & Wellbeing at RACV.

If you are interested in working with People who Care, where there is Room to Grow, and where you can Make a Difference, this could be the job for you
