- Strong knowledge of WHS legislation, regulations, codes, and standards.
- Experience in a similar role (experience in food manufacturing is an advantage).
- Confidence in leading or supporting incident investigations (ICAM, STAMP, CAST or equivalent).
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills – able to connect with all levels of the workforce.
- Strong attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and the ability to juggle competing priorities.
- Proficiency in MS Office and solid administrative skills.
- A collaborative team player with a genuine commitment to safety.

Why Join Us?

- Play a vital role in keeping our people safe and supported.
- Be part of a collaborative team that values respect and continuous improvement.
- Gain exposure to a fast-paced environment with opportunities to grow your experience.
