Safety Specialist

We keep crews safe on active jobsites — not from behind a desk, but in the field where the work actually happens. Our team supports commercial, institutional, and industrial construction projects with practical, boots-on-the-ground safety leadership. The Role We're hiring a Safety Specialist to run day-to-day safety operations across our active projects. You'll be on jobsites most of the week, working alongside foremen and project managers to spot hazards before they become incidents, coach crews in the moment, and keep our documentation airtight. This isn't a paperwork job with a hard hat on the shelf. If you'd rather be walking scaffold and talking to crews than sitting in an office, this is the right fit. What You'll Do Conduct routine jobsite inspections and audits; document findings and drive corrections to closure Lead toolbox talks, new-hire safety orientations, and ongoing crew training Investigate incidents and near-misses; complete root cause analysis and corrective action plans Maintain OSHA 300 logs, SDS libraries, training records, and project-specific safety plans Develop and review Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs) and pre-task plans Serve as the point of contact for GC safety requirements, prequalification platforms, and third-party audits Manage fall protection, silica, scaffold, aerial lift, and PPE programs in the field Support workers' comp claims management and return-to-work coordination Track leading and lagging indicators and report trends to leadership What You Bring Required 3+ years of safety experience in construction (self-perform trades a strong plus) OSHA 30-Hour Construction Working knowledge of OSHA 1926 standards and how they apply in the real world Valid driver's license and willingness to travel between jobsites daily Ability to communicate credibly with everyone from apprentices to owners Comfort working around active construction: climbing ladders, walking uneven ground, all weather Preferred CHST, STSC, OHST, ASP, or CSP certification OSHA 500 / authorized outreach trainer First Aid/CPR and Competent Person training (fall protection, excavation, scaffold) Experience with masonry, concrete, or structural trades Familiarity with Procore, ISNetworld, Avetta, or similar platforms #J-18808-Ljbffr
