Build the Future of Data Centers. Lead Safety on Mission-Critical Projects.

Senior Construction Safety Coordinator

Port Washington, WI | Mission Critical / Data Center Projects | Travel-Friendly

This isn’t just another safety job.

You’ll be supporting large-scale, high-profile data center builds for one of the top MEP contractors in the U.S. —projects that demand precision, pace, and strong safety leadership.

If you thrive in fast-moving environments, enjoy being in the field, and want to be part of projects that are shaping the future of infrastructure—this is where you want to be.

What You’ll Get

  • Long-term project stability (12–36+ months)
  • Consistent overtime (50-60 hours/week)
  • Per diem available for travelers
  • Work alongside a strong, collaborative safety team
  • Exposure to complex, high-impact mission-critical builds
  • Opportunity to mentor junior safety professionals and grow your leadership footprint

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Leading jobsite safety efforts on active, large-scale construction projects
  • Conducting site audits, inspections, and hazard assessments
  • Supporting high-risk work planning (JHAs, PTPs, pre-task meetings)
  • Driving a proactive safety culture with field teams and leadership
  • Delivering toolbox talks, orientations, and training
  • Partnering closely with superintendents, subcontractors, and project leaders
  • Mentoring junior safety staff and helping elevate team performance
  • Managing incident investigations, reporting, and safety documentation

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years of construction safety experience (vertical or commercial preferred)
  • OSHA 510 + OSHA 30 (Required)
  • BCSP Certification (CHST, ASP, CSP) – Strongly Preferred
  • Experience working in active jobsite environments
  • Strong communicator who can influence safe behaviors in the field
  • Comfortable using tools like Procore, Excel, Teams

Bonus Points For

  • Data center / mission-critical project experience
  • Background working with MEP contractors or complex trades
  • Experience mentoring or leading other safety professionals

Who This Role Is Perfect For

  • Safety professionals who enjoy being in the field—not behind a desk
  • Candidates open to travel and project-based work
  • Individuals who want to grow into leadership roles on major builds
  • People who take pride in owning safety culture on-site
