About the Role

We’re partnering with a growing construction and industrial contractor to hire a Safety Manager who will play a key role in building and maintaining a strong safety culture across job sites and plant operations.

  • Comfortable developing and enforcing safety policies and emergency response plans
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to influence field crews and leadership
  • Experience in steel erection or industrial construction is a plus but not required
  • Trainable, adaptable mindset suited to a small-to-medium company environment

Perks & Benefits

  • Competitive base salary with performance-based bonus
  • Company vehicle and all travel expenses covered
  • Profit-sharing opportunities
  • Healthcare benefits and 401(k) plan
  • Supportive leadership and long-term growth potential
