- 10+ years of experience in a safety management or leadership role, with significant experience at the Safety Director, Corporate Safety Manager, EHS Director, or comparable level.
- OSHA 500 – Trainer Course in OSHA Standards for Construction.
- CHST (Construction Health and Safety Technician) certification.
- Strong working knowledge of OSHA regulations and construction safety practices.
- Demonstrated experience developing, implementing, and managing comprehensive safety programs.
- Proven ability to work directly with company leadership, field management, supervisors, and employees.

- Ability to work independently and exercise sound professional judgment.
- Must be based in the Charlotte, NC area.
- Must be willing and able to travel to support clients.
- Must be a collaborative, flexible team player who is comfortable responding to changing client needs.
- CSP (Certified Safety Professional) strongly preferred.
