Full-time

Ready to build your career? We want to hear from you.

As a Health & Safety Coordinator working in the Building Operations at Pomerleau Construction, your mission is clear : safeguarding lives, one protocol at a time.

Working on large-scale building and infrastructure projects ranging from $ million to upwards of $1 billion you will ensure that health and safety on our job sites and office spaces isn't simply just a policy, it's a way of life.

What You Will Do

  • Be the pioneer for site health and safety where the project teams look to you for guidance and compliance becomes second nature.
  • You are the leader as it relates to project specific standards, continuously promoting Pomerleau’s H&S standards, OH&S Acts, Regulations and Codes with your teammates and trade partners.
  • You are a key player from day one of project kickoffs; crafting plans, leading meetings, and spotting potential hazards through to project closeouts and team celebrations.

You are a key member of the projects from start to finish.

  • Boots on the ground is your thing, getting active out on the job sites to conduct regular site inspections.
  • Lead the incident investigation processes for your project. Dissecting high-risk elements is what you do best, sharing the information with your Regional H&S Manager.

  • Be the first responder when an emergency strikes, orchestrating safety best practices when the unexpected strikes.
  • Share your passion for training, mentoring, and coaching your team on H&S best practices.
  • You compile statistics like no other, identifying patterns and paving the way for proactive improvements.
  • You will support with the upkeep of Pomerleau’s COR Standards in meticulously ensuring all COR elements are met and maintained on your job sites.

  • An educational background in Occupational H&S, risk management or direct industry experience.
  • Previous experience or familiarity with Certification of Recognition (COR) and Safety Group (IHSA).
