• Write instructions for the safe and correct use of new equipment and machines.

• Observe and analyse safety issues that occur on a job site, log them correctly through our platform, and follow up on incidents.
• Investigate accidents on site and follow up on safety modifications to avoid similar accidents.
• Facilitate and perform QHSSE audits and inspections.

What You Need

• A bachelor’s or master’s degree in environmental management, safety management, construction, mechanical engineering or a related field. Experience as an environmental coordinator, safety coordinator or prevention consultant is a plus.
• At least eight years of experience as a prevention consultant.
• Good knowledge of French and Dutch.
• Strong communication and social skills. Ability to coach and guide, and to talk to anyone appropriately.
• Team player who also works independently.
• Ability to prioritise and plan effectively to meet deadlines.
• Enjoys variety; schedule can change at short notice.
• Strong character; speaks up on unsafe situations, investigates thoroughly, and persists when faced with resistance.
• Flexibility to adapt to changing circumstances on the site.
• Can work closely with site management while keeping a practical and critical eye.
