- Lead investigations into incidents and near-misses, focusing on learning and prevention
- Coordinate and deliver site safety training, toolbox talks, and briefings
- Analyse data and trends to identify areas for proactive improvement
- Drive behavioural safety initiatives, ensuring safety is part of how work gets done - not just paperwork

- Relevant Health and Safety qualifications (NEBOSH)
- In-depth knowledge of Irish Health & Safety legislation and ISO management standards
- Good communication and influencing skills
