Job description

Pavement Maintenance Group (PMG) is the largest franchisee of the SealMaster® and GemSeal® brands, with operations spanning 31 locations including 8 manufacturing facilities nationwide. As we continue to grow, we are focused on strengthening safety, consistency, and compliance across all operations. This role is a key part of that effort.

About the Role

Reporting to the COO and based in Allentown, PA, this role sits at the intersection of Operations and HR. You will be responsible for building and maintaining a consistent, company-wide EHS program that aligns with how the business operates.

This is not a purely administrative safety role. Success requires a strong presence in the field, sound judgment, and the ability to identify risk, ask the right questions, and drive practical solutions. As PMG continues to grow, this role will focus on creating structure, standardizing processes, and improving overall safety performance across all locations.

• Conduct audits, inspections, and risk assessments; identify hazards and drive corrective action
• Lead accident investigation, root cause analysis, and follow-through to resolution
• Standardize safety policies, procedures, and training across all locations
• Partner with Operations and HR to ensure consistent execution of safety programs
• Oversee fleet safety, contractor safety, and environmental compliance requirements
• Support and guide regional safety committees and local safety ownership
• Track, analyze, and report EHS metrics to support data-driven decisions

What We're Looking For

• 3–5 years of experience in a manufacturing or safety-related role with progressive responsibility
• Strong working knowledge of federal, state, and local safety regulations
• Experience building or improving safety programs in operational environments
• Exceptional relationship builder with ability to communicate clearly across all levels
• Strong attention to detail with ability to identify risk and drive root cause resolution
• Ability to recognize normal vs. abnormal conditions and take appropriate action
• Comfortable working independently in the field and managing multiple priorities
• High level of ownership, judgment, and integrity
• Frequent travel required (up to 35%); must maintain valid driver's license and remain insurable under company policy
