EHS Safety Specialist

$31.21 - $47.61 per hour

SPEROS

  • # EHS Safety SpecialistApplyremote type: Onsitelocations: Moffitt Discovery Centertime type: Full timeposted on: Posted Todayjob requisition id: R-2298### Working at Moffitt is both a career and a mission: to contribute to the prevention and cure of cancer.### As the only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center based in Florida, Moffitt employs some of the best and brightest minds from around the world. Join a dedicated team of nearly 11,000 who are shaping the future we envision. Moffitt has been recognized as a Best and Brightest Company to Work For in the Nation and is continually named one of the Tampa Bay Times’ Top Workplaces.**Summary**Moffitt is opening a new chapter at the **Moffitt Discovery and Innovation Research Center (MDI)** at SPEROS in Pasco County — a brand-new, state-of-the-art research campus built to advance the future of cancer science. We are seeking a motivated Environmental, Health & Safety (EHS) professional to join the Research EHS team as the plank-owning EHS Specialist for this facility.The position will initially be based **at our Magnolia** Campus. Ultimately, the position will be located at **Moffitt at Speros in Land O’Lakes, FL** once the facility opens mid-August 2026.Position Highlights:This is a rare ground-floor opportunity — the founding, on-site EHS Specialist for Moffitt’s newest research campus. The EHS Specialist will:* Serve as the on-site EHS presence at SPEROS, working independently to run day-to-day EHS operations at a campus located away from the main Tampa campus.* Own one or more institutional EHS Program elements on behalf of the entire Research enterprise (such as Inspections, Safety Equipment, Incident Investigations, Ergonomics, Respiratory Protection, Emergency Preparedness, or Training).* Implement and manage the day-to-day effectiveness of all other Research EHS Programs at SPEROS — chemical hygiene, hazardous waste, biosafety, training, emergency preparedness — coordinating with the program owners on the main campus.* Help establish the safety culture, standards, and operating rhythm from day one in a brand-new building supporting cutting-edge cancer research.* Operate with full backing from the established Research EHS team at the main campus, including the Hazardous Materials Manager, the Biosafety Officer, and the Research Safety Officer.The Ideal Candidate:The ideal EHS Specialist for SPEROS is a self-directed safety professional who thrives operating with autonomy at a remote site while remaining tightly coordinated with a home team. They should have:* A Bachelor’s degree or higher in an appropriate scientific or safety field — microbiology, virology, molecular biology, public health, biochemistry, industrial hygiene, occupational safety, or a closely related degree.* Experience in safety and environmental compliance working with faculty and staff in a research or educational institution.* Demonstrated ability to perform audits and inspections and to drive corrective actions to closure with minimal day-to-day oversight.* Working knowledge of federal, state, and local health and safety regulations governing laboratory safety, biological safety, chemical safety, and animal use operations.* Certification in a recognized safety-related program (e.g., CSP, CIH, RBP, CBSP, CHMM) — held or actively in progress.* Experience managing hazardous waste from a generator, shipper, and/or treatment-and-disposal perspective.* Proficiency with Microsoft Office and common safety-related applications.* Strong communication skills across a variety of methods (verbal, email, announcements, presentations) and comfort being the visible safety presence in a new building.Responsibilities:* Serve as the on-site EHS lead for the Moffitt Discovery and Innovation Research Center at SPEROS.* Lead one or more institutional EHS Programs for the Research enterprise (Inspections, Safety Equipment, Incident Investigations, Ergonomics, Respiratory Protection, Emergency Preparedness, or Training).* Implement and manage all Research EHS program activities at SPEROS, including SAA inspections, biosafety annual inspections, annual chemical inspections, training delivery (RSMART, HWGRT, PPE), and major and minor lab consultations.* Conduct safety audits and routine inspections of safety-related systems; document findings and drive corrective actions to completion.* Investigate incidents, near misses, and other identified safety concerns; perform follow-up and root-cause analysis.* Process hazardous waste at SPEROS — milk runs, characterization, storage, and preparation for shipment — in coordination with the Hazardous Materials Manager.* Support biosafety oversight at the site, partnering with the Biosafety Officer and Research Safety Officer. Because USF does not provide biosafety program support at SPEROS, on-site EHS coverage is essential to maintain compliance and reduce regulatory risk.* Prepare for and support Joint Commission surveys, DEP inspections, and Fire Marshal walkthroughs at SPEROS.* Assist in annual reviews of EHS policies and SOPs, including the Biosafety Program and Lab Inspection Program.* Participate in Research On-Call rotation (approximately 8 weeks per year as Primary On-Call).* Participate in institutional preparation, response, and recovery for hurricane events and other disasters across an expanded research footprint.Credentials and Qualifications:* Bachelor’s degree in science, engineering or occupational safety and at least 3 years of hands-on experience in an EHS Department or a University setting is required.* The degree requirement may be waived if the candidate has at least 7 years of hands-on relevant experience.* FL Driver’s License in good standing is required.* Knowledge of safety and environmental compliance in a research or educational institution.* Working knowledge of OSHA regulations required.* Recognized safety certification (CSP, CIH, RBP, CBSP, CHMM, or similar) preferred.Moffitt Team Members are eligible for Medical, Dental, Vision, Paid Time Off, Retirement, Parental Leave and more. Tampa is a thriving metropolitan city, which has become a hub for ground-breaking research, welcoming individuals from around the globe. This diverse city is engulfed with rich culture, year-round activities, amazing cuisine and so much more. We strive for work/life balance.If you have the vision, passion, and dedication to contribute to our mission,then we have a place for you**Salary Range**$31.21 - $47.61*Salary ranges posted for this position represent the expected base pay range for the role.
