Description

Indigenous Shared Services Group (ISSG)     Multiple WA Sites     FIFO – 8/6 Roster

 

This is a field safety role with genuine variety, real autonomy, and direct impact. You will work across multiple ISSG client businesses and operational sites throughout WA, supporting a diverse portfolio for Tier 1 mining clients. Our business spans passenger transport, mobile plant operations, and other specialist service businesses. No two risks are the same, and no two days look the same.

Reporting to the Perth-based HSEQ Manager, you will plan and manage your own site visit schedule aligned to operational risk and business priorities. If you are a practical, field-focused safety professional who does your best work with people rather than behind a desk, this role was built for you.  You will be working for a company that is genuinely excited about progressing on its journey to safety excellence.

Roster: FIFO 8 on / 6 off (Negotiable)

Location: Roaming across WA – Pilbara and broader operations

Remuneration: Competitive package

  • •Supporting incident investigations including evidence collection, causal analysis and corrective action development.
  • •Assisting with fatigue management, journey management, safe driving compliance and contract-specific client HSE requirements.

  • •Strong working knowledge of WHS legislation, risk management, incident investigation and safety management systems.
  • •The ability to plan and manage a field-based schedule independently, without needing to be directed.
  • •Practical influencing skills – comfortable coaching operational leaders without taking ownership away from the line.
  • •Current driver’s licence and the ability to travel regularly across WA sites.

Highly regarded

  • •Experience with Tier 1 mining contractor environments.
  • •Background in passenger transport, mobile plant, or contractor compliance in Tier 1 mining environments.
  • •Lead auditor, Certificate IV in Training and Assessment, or similar qualifications.
