**Great things start here**

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**

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

- 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
