CMW Geosciences
Date: 11 hours ago
City: Adelaide, South Australia
Contract type: Full time

About Us
Since starting in Perth in 2012, CMW Geosciences has expanded to 22 offices and over 300 employees across Australia and New Zealand. We are hard-working, down-to-earth, and passionate Geotech professionals, providing quality geotechnical site investigation, analysis, and design advice to the construction, infrastructure, and energy sectors.
We are looking for an HSE professional to join our QHSE group who are spread across AUS and NZ. This position is based in our Adelaide (Tonsley) office, and although you work for the wider CMW business, you will predominantly cover the SA, VIC, and WA regions.
Reporting to the Senior HSE Advisor (also based in Adelaide), our HSE team promotes and facilitates a safe, healthy and hazard-free working environment for all staff.
We are seeking a highly effective communicator who can confidently collaborate with diverse teams to promote positive Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) outcomes. While you will receive support and guidance from senior management, you should be prepared to take ownership of your responsibilities and work independently within your region.
