Health & Safety Advisor

About The Company

With multiple sites and lots of moving parts, this will be a challenging but fun environment! With a sustainability focus and having a great employer reputation, you will have the privilege to be part of this down‑to‑earth team and lead ideas and initiatives in the safety space! Having values such as ‘respectful’ and ‘safe’ people who are passionate about what they deliver, and with long tenure throughout – they are genuinely salt of the earth. Be part of it, and part of enabling change.

About The Role

An exciting opportunity for a Health & Safety professional to join a well‑appointed H&S team. Yes, it’s an Advisor title, but we’re looking for someone who knows how to genuinely partner – driving improvements across your region and transforming thinking. You will collaborate closely with operational teams to lead H&S improvement programs, and help foster a culture of safety excellence, enterprise‑wide. The position provides technical safety advice, training, and will be the “go‑to” H&S expert across risk assessment, injury prevention, incident reporting, and monitoring compliance; among other responsibilities. Most importantly, you will influence and build capability through forward‑thinking, people‑centric initiatives.

About You

You have that unique ability to evaluate and critically assess current H&S systems and processes, seeing things no‑one else notices! You can creatively drive change forward – making safety part of everyday language (and a bit of fun!). With charisma and a collaborative style, you’re a natural when it comes to influence – you balance diplomacy and persuasion together, with gusto! You can confidently coach, partner and engage with stakeholders at any level. With excellent communication and influencing skills, you are comfortable having tough conversations and challenging the status quo.

• Minimum of 5+ years of H&S experience from a complex operational environment.
• Solid working knowledge of NZ H&S legislation.
• Evidence of loyalty and tenure throughout your career.
• Formal H&S certification is appealing.
• Experience covering a wide region.
• Examples of identified and implemented changes that led to positive, measurable results for both the people and the business.
