About the Role

An exciting opportunity has become available for a Safety Manager to lead health, safety and wellbeing initiatives across a diverse, multi-site portfolio. Working within a well-regarded not-for-profit organisation, you will play a pivotal role in creating safe, inclusive and proactive working environments.

Reporting to the Head of Health and Safety, as a trusted advisor, you will be instrumental in delivering the organisation's safety strategy, partnering closely with operational teams and leaders to embed a strong safety culture. You will focus on practical risk management, behavioural change, and injury prevention—especially in high-risk activities such as manual handling, mobility, and lifting.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the implementation of WHS strategies, policies and programs
  • Provide coaching and support to leaders and teams to enhance safety performance
  • Identify risk areas and implement proactive mitigation strategies
  • Monitor and drive continuous improvement through safety data, audits, and reviews
  • Be a visible and active presence across sites to build engagement and awareness
  • Support incident investigations and ensure compliance with legislation

About You

  • A hands-on WHS professional with strong interpersonal and communication skills
  • Proven experience in a similar role within complex or dispersed organisations
  • Able to build trust and influence at all levels – from the frontline to the executive
  • Comfortable presenting to leadership and engaging staff through clear, confident communication
  • Passionate about improving systems, processes and culture in safety and wellbeing
  • Relevant qualifications in WHS or a related discipline

Experience within disability services, aged care, health, emergency services or other high-care industries is highly regarded but not essential.

Why Apply?

  • Make a genuine impact in a values-driven organisation.
  • Be a key player in shaping a proactive, people-first safety culture.
  • Enjoy a supportive team and leadership group committed to change.
  • Opportunity to lead and influence safety across a growing regional footprint.
