National WHS Advisor

Looking to move into a national advisory role and make a real impact - without being on the tools?

This is a fantastic opportunity for a seasoned WHS professional to step into a head office-based position where you'll support the rollout of national safety initiatives, partner with site teams, and help embed a proactive, people-first safety culture across the G.James Group.

About Us
At G.James, safety is not just a priority - it's a core value that underpins everything we do. We're seeking a
National WHS Advisor
to join our Group Support Services team, based at
Head Office in Eagle Farm.
This is an advisory and coordination role, working closely with safety professionals and operational leaders to support the rollout of national safety strategies and initiatives.

While the strategic direction is set by senior leadership, your input will help shape how safety is communicated, understood, and applied at all levels. You'll mostly operate from head office, but some site travel will be required to build relationships and provide support where it matters most.
