Health, Safety and Wellbeing – Senior Advisor

• Hands on HSW opportunity for an established senior practitioner
• Incredibly interesting subject matter/environment
• Two year fixed term – rare part time opportunity!

The role

We’re seeking a Health, Safety and Wellbeing (HSW) expert to drive the next chapter of our HSW programme and bring our refreshed strategy to life.

Following a strategic system enhancement project, we’re ready to put improvements into action. You’ll deliver the programme, drive meaningful changes and ensure all facets of our programme are well embedded and compliant.

You’ll apply your expertise across our work, noting that a specific focus includes the safety of our investigations team who operate in hazardous and emotionally challenging environments.

You’ll be our engaging hands-on expert across our HSW programme – you’ll embed change, deliver training programmes, proactively identify risks, ensure compliance, advise, guide and influence – and operate with a continuous improvement mindset.

This is a two year fixed term, part-time role.

About the organisation

The Transport Accident Investigation Commission (TAIC) investigates significant aviation, rail, and marine accidents and incidents with a view to avoiding similar occurrences in the future. Multi-disciplinary teams investigate and analyse the circumstances of these occurrences, supporting the Commission to consider the facts, and make findings and recommendations to improve transport safety, rather than to ascribe blame.

Skilled investigators, led by an Investigator in Charge attend accident sites, often in remote locations, to gather evidence for each particular investigation within these three transport modes.

The Commission has set a visionary goal of “no repeat accidents – ever!”

Skills and experience

We’re seeking a skilled HSW practitioner who thrives on rolling up their sleeves to run a smart and effective programme, and will be the approachable, trusted voice of HSW in our workplace.

Ideally, you’ll have tertiary qualifications in workplace health and safety, professional membership registration, and HASANZ registration (or working toward it), and coaching/mentoring qualifications and/or experience. We’d love to see mentoring or coaching qualifications or experience too.

In addition, you’ll have:

• at least eight years of practical experience in delivering HSW programmes and initiatives
• contemporary thinking on wellness and psychosocial risk, policy, and strategy development
• the ability to assess complex health and safety issues and make informed decisions
• excellent all round communication, and relationship building abilities
• a strong results orientation
• a high degree of professionalism.

Our work can expose you and the team to traumatic scenes and evidential details, thus strong emotional and psychological maturity is required.

How to apply

If you’re passionate about health, safety and wellbeing and keen to apply your experience and energy to ensure we continue to have a strong, positive HSW culture and practice, then apply now!
