• Risk Analysis: Review contractor JSAs (Job Safety Analysis) for accuracy and depth. You will be expected to "challenge the status quo" through deep data analysis and Kaizen (continuous improvement) thinking.
• Communication & Reporting: Manage KPIs and develop high-level PowerPoint presentations for local, regional, and global leadership regarding incident reports and plant status.
• Standardization: Translate complex safety regulations into standardized, technically accurate policies.

• Experience: 5+ years of experience leading safety on multi-trade construction projects.
• Certifications: Active OSHA 510 , OSHA 30 (Construction), and deep knowledge of NFPA 70E standards.
• Analytical Skills: Proven ability to manage projects requiring critical thinking, data verification, and problem-solving.

• Training Mastery: OSHA 500 (Train the Trainer) certification.

Position Logistics

• Travel: Minimal (primarily limited to occasional training).
• Schedule: Early morning start (6:30 AM). Must be flexible for weekend work (approx. 25% overtime) based on project demand.
• Work Environment: This is an on-site role at TMMMO in Troy, MO.
