Role requirements
Work closely with supervisors, general foremen and works managers at the point of work. Support daily briefings, task briefings and POWRA quality. Challenge poor standards and unsafe behaviours in a constructive but firm way. Support stop work decisions where controls are not in place or the work has changed. Check that teams understand the task, the controls, the permits and the emergency arrangements. Identify interface risks between trades, plant, lifting operations, access routes and adjacent works. Coach supervisors and gangs on setting people to work, rather than simply reporting issues. Escalate weak signals, repeated poor practice and unresolved actions. Maintain simple, clear records of observations, interventions and follow-up actions.
Candidate behaviours
We are not looking for people who simply walk around with a clipboard. We need credible, practical and confident individuals who can work with delivery teams, influence behaviours and help improve standards quickly.
The Right Candidates Will Be
Visible and proactive. Confident but not confrontational. Practical and delivery-aware. Clear and concise in their reporting. Comfortable challenging supervisors, managers and subcontractors where required. Able to work at pace without losing control of detail. Focused on improving standards, not just recording non-compliance.
