Descrição da oferta de emprego

Travel: Regular travel throughout Upstate New York

Industry: Civil Construction / Utility Infrastructure

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to join a rapidly growing civil and utility contractor that is continuing to expand its presence across Upstate New York and the broader Northeast.

The company specializes in major electrical utility and civil infrastructure projects, including transmission, distribution, substations, duct banks, renewable energy, and related infrastructure. Backed by a much larger national organization, they offer the resources and stability of a major contractor while maintaining the accessibility and career opportunities of a growing regional business.

For someone who wants to be in the field, take ownership of safety across meaningful infrastructure projects, and grow with an expanding operation, this is a strong long-term opportunity.

The Opportunity

The Safety Manager will support a portfolio of projects throughout Upstate New York, working directly with project leadership and field teams to maintain a strong, proactive safety culture.

This is not a desk-based safety position. You will spend the majority of your time in the field and need to be flexible depending on where the work is happening.

At times, you may be assigned full-time to a major project, including Monday-Friday assignments in areas such as Syracuse. At other times, you may support several projects throughout the region that require part-time safety coverage.

You do not need to live in Syracuse, but you must be comfortable traveling throughout Upstate New York and staying near projects during the week when required.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead safety efforts across civil, utility, electrical, and infrastructure projects
• Conduct site inspections, audits, observations, and safety meetings
• Work directly with PMs, Superintendents, Foremen, and field crews
• Support JHAs, JSAs, site-specific safety plans, orientations, and training
• Investigate incidents and near misses and implement corrective actions
• Maintain compliance with OSHA, client requirements, and company safety standards
• Provide dedicated onsite coverage for larger projects when required
• Help maintain a consistent safety culture across a growing Upstate New York operation

What They’re Looking For

• Construction safety experience, ideally within utility, civil, electrical, heavy construction, or infrastructure
• Strong knowledge of OSHA and construction safety practices
• Someone comfortable working directly with field crews and project leadership
• Ability to independently support multiple active projects
• Strong communication skills and the confidence to hold people accountable
• Relevant safety certifications are preferred
• Willingness to travel extensively throughout Upstate New York, including Monday-Friday project assignments when required

What’s Being Offered

You’ll be joining a company that is actively investing in its Upstate New York operation, with significant infrastructure and energy work underway and additional growth ahead.

The position offers competitive compensation, strong organizational resources, exposure to major projects, and the opportunity to take on greater responsibility as the regional operation continues to expand.
