We are committed to hiring the best, most talented people and empowering them to thrive, grow meaningful careers and to find a place where they belong. Whether you’ve got deep experience in commercial real estate, skilled trades or technology, or you’re looking to apply your relevant experience to a new industry, join our team as we help shape a brighter way forward.

What this job involves: Putting safety first - always

This challenging yet exciting role puts you in the driving seat of our efforts to build and maintain an environmentally sustainable, healthy and safe workplace. You'll provide safety support to all projects, ensuring they all meet our own established standards and that of local safety regulations. Specifically, you'll conduct safety review meetings with project and design team at the initial stage of the project. As well, you'll ensure that all high-risk activities have proper safety work method statement (SWMS). Additionally, you'll promote workplace safety by performing site inspections, risk reports, timely safety-related corrections, and weekly safety meetings. You'll also constantly coordinate with the project manager and operations manager to ensure that everybody will be out of harm's way.

Promoting safety awareness

Getting everyone on board our environment, health and safety initiatives falls on your shoulders. To do this, you need to create awareness and educate our people and stakeholders. You'll achieve this through consistent sharing of success stories and best practices among project JLL teams, and also by doing regular mentoring and coaching of our safety officers and non-safety professionals. Another step would be obtaining the relevant professional licenses and ensuring they stay up-to-date.

Education and experience

• An ideal candidate holds a solid healthy, safety and environmental (HSE) background, and has at least 9 years' experience in construction safety.
• You are also a safety license holder, with a proven track record in providing safety trainings.

An eye for detail

• We'll expect you to be good at identifying, and devising measures to meet, our stakeholders' business needs and requirements.
• Having strong written and spoken communication skills are vital and, of course, you'll be good at building team relationships - that is, listening to your team and being open to suggestions and knowledge exchange - and interacting effectively with business partners.
