Safety Manager

Full-time

The Sterling Choice

Construction Safety Manager – Heavy Civil & Underground Utilities

Washington, D.C. Region

I'm currently working on an exciting opportunity for an experienced Construction Safety Manager to join a well-established national infrastructure contractor.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a hands-on safety professional to take ownership of regional safety operations, supporting multiple heavy civil construction projects while working closely with project managers, field leadership and operational teams.

The successful candidate will play a key role in driving safety performance, developing preventative strategies and promoting a strong safety-first culture across the business.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Oversee health and safety operations across multiple construction projects.
  • Develop and implement regional safety plans and project-specific H&S procedures.
  • Conduct regular site inspections, safety audits and compliance assessments.
  • Lead accident investigations, root cause analysis and corrective actions.
  • Review Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs) and ensure regulatory compliance.
  • Deliver safety training, toolbox talks and regular safety meetings.
  • Coach and mentor field personnel, supervisors and project teams.
  • Build relationships with clients, subcontractors and operational leadership.

What We're Looking For:

  • 5+ years of construction safety experience.
  • OSHA 500 or OSHA 510/502 certification.
  • CHST certification.
  • Strong knowledge of OSHA regulations and heavy civil construction practices.
  • Experience with incident investigations and safety training.
  • Background in underground utilities, water/wastewater, trenchless or pipeline construction would be highly advantageous.
  • Ability to travel approximately 20% across the region.

This is an opportunity to join an established infrastructure contractor, take on genuine regional responsibility and make a real impact on safety standards across some challenging construction projects.

If you're an experienced safety professional considering your next move, I'd love to have a confidential conversation.
