Description du poste

Description

BLOX is creating the tools to convert a resistant Architecture Engineering and Construction Industry into a smart and efficient machine. For those motivated to play a part in that change, this is an exciting time at BLOX. In short, BLOX takes the most complicated parts of a hospital – headwalls, surgery ceilings, MEP racks, Central Energy Plants, exam rooms, bathrooms, etc. - designs them so that they can be removed from conventional construction, manufactures them as modules, transports and inserts them into the construction process to yield higher quality buildings that open significantly faster than those conventionally constructed. BLOX is both service and product that includes architecture, engineering, manufacturing, logistics and construction.

BLOX is a modular construction manufacturer running heavy industrial processes at scale — structural steel fabrication, welding, crane and rigging operations, powered industrial trucks, straddle carriers, module assembly lines, and finish trades, all under one roof in Bessemer, AL. Our EHS program operates under both OSHA 1910 and 1926, and nearly everything is done in-house: incident investigation, training delivery, industrial hygiene, program development, inspections, and workers' compensation case management. We do not outsource our safety program to consultants.

As the EHS Manager, you will own day-to-day execution of the manufacturing EHS program, reporting to the VP of Environmental, Health, Safety & Sustainability. The VP sets strategy and direction across manufacturing, field construction, and logistics; you make the program run on the floor every day — managing the manufacturing EHS team, keeping the corrective-action cascade moving, closing incidents with real root causes, and holding the standard when production pressure pushes against it. This is a floor-based leadership role, not an office job.

Responsibilities:

• Run daily EHS operations across the manufacturing campus, including inspections, walks, hazard correction, area release decisions, and response.
• Lead in-house investigations for injuries, near misses, and property damage — scene control, evidence, witness statements, root-cause analysis, corrective actions, and verified closure — and brief leadership on findings without sugarcoating them.
• Own the training system end to end: training matrix, delivery, competency verification, and records retrievable on demand for any employee, any topic, any time, including equipment qualification (forklift, aerial lift, crane and hoist support) and bilingual delivery where the workforce requires it.
• Maintain and enforce core safety programs — LOTO, electrical safety, fall protection, machine guarding, hot work, confined space, HazCom, powered industrial trucks and heavy equipment, walking-working surfaces, and PPE — and keep written programs aligned with what actually happens in the field.
• Run the in-house industrial hygiene program: exposure characterization and monitoring for noise, silica, welding fume, and chemical hazards; sampling coordination; medical surveillance scheduling; and controls follow-through.
• Manage the corrective-action tracker with named owners, due dates, and field-verified closure, and report weekly status to the VP and site leadership.
• Oversee injury response, workers' compensation coordination, and OSHA 1904 recordkeeping through the EHS Supervisor, keeping the OSHA 300 log accurate and defensible.
• Develop the EHS Supervisor and Lead Inspector, set their priorities, and remove obstacles, while coordinating cross-support with the Field Construction EHS organization and the Crane & Rigging Lead in Digital Fab.
• Support safety-committee leadership and supervisor accountability so that every employee uses stop-work authority without hesitation, and every use gets a response.
• Partner with Operations, Facilities Maintenance, and Warehousing to implement EHS programs, standards, and training in their areas.
• Manage contractor and temporary-workforce safety requirements, orientation, and oversight on site.

What Success Looks Like:

• The corrective-action tracker is current, owned, and closing on schedule, and leadership trusts it.
• Every investigation produces a root cause and a verified fix, not paperwork.
• Training records are complete and retrievable on demand; no employee operates equipment without documented qualification.
• Inspections and industrial hygiene monitoring run on cadence without being pushed.
• The VP is out of the day-to-day because the day-to-day doesn't need him.

Required Job Skills & Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Occupational Safety, Health, Environmental Science, Engineering, or a closely related field.
• 7+ years of progressive EHS experience in heavy manufacturing, fabrication, or industrial construction, including at least 2 years supervising EHS staff.
• Hands-on experience leading incident investigations and root-cause analysis in-house, including serious injuries.
• Working command of OSHA 1910 with practical exposure to 1926, applied in a mixed manufacturing and construction environment.
• Experience building and delivering training programs internally, including hands-on equipment qualification, without relying on outside vendors.
• Working knowledge of industrial hygiene fundamentals: exposure assessment, sampling logistics, and interpreting results into controls.
• Demonstrated ability to hold the line with operations leadership under production pressure without burning relationships.
• Strong documentation habits — if it's not written down and retrievable, it didn't happen.

Preferred:

• ASP, CSP, or documented progress toward certification.
• Experience in modular construction, structural steel, or crane-intensive manufacturing.
• Direct industrial hygiene sampling experience (noise dosimetry, silica, welding fume).
• Bilingual English/Spanish.
• Experience managing workers' compensation cases and OSHA recordkeeping.

Benefits:

BLOX offers the full spectrum of comprehensive benefits including health, dental, and vision insurance. We also offer flexible spending accounts, paid time off, short term disability, long term disability, life insurance and a 401k plan.
