Commercial HSEQ Advisor

Apply direct
Our client is a well-established commercial builder delivering quality construction projects across Perth.
As the business continues to grow, they're looking to appoint their first dedicated HSEQ professional to establish and lead the company's Health, Safety, Environment and Quality function.
This isn't a role where you'll inherit an existing system—you'll have the opportunity to build it.
Working closely with senior leadership, you'll develop practical HSEQ processes and procedures, implement systems across the business, and help embed a positive safety culture that supports both project delivery and long-term growth.
Initially, the position will focus on developing and implementing the company's HSEQ framework. As the business evolves, the role will become a balanced mix of office-based systems management and site support across active commercial projects.
We're looking for someone who enjoys building relationships just as much as building systems—someone who can influence operational teams, provide practical advice, and become a trusted advisor across the business.
