OverviewWe're hiring a Safety Manager for our heavy-industrial manufacturing operation.
You'll own the safety program end to end: OSHA compliance, audits and inspections, accident investigation, and the training records that prove it all happened. You'll run the Safety Department and manage up to two employees - hiring them, directing their work, and appraising them yourself. The work touches 5S, 5Y, VPP certification, and ISO 45001, and you'll sit on the Safety Committee.
This role reports to senior management and briefs them on regulatory changes before those changes land on the floor. A few backgrounds work here: a career safety professional, or a production manager who picked up safety along the way. What doesn't change is the setting - this is a plant floor job, and you need to have worked in an industrial environment.
