The HSE Coordinator is the day-to-day operational backbone of the HSE division and the primary field-level HSE presence across all active job sites. This role is responsible for executing the safety programs, training, documentation, and compliance activities that keep the company's people safe and its records audit-ready. The Coordinator works closely with and reports directly to the HSE Manager, who provides strategic direction, prioritization, and escalation support. This is a predominantly operations-facing position - the Coordinator is expected to be visible, accessible, and present on active job sites and throughout shop facilities as the primary HSE contact for all personnel on a daily basis. The Coordinator also plays an important role in reinforcing the company's shared safety culture, working alongside Operations supervisors and Project Managers who carry their own active responsibility for safety outcomes.KEY RESPONSIBILITIESSafety Compliance - Field & ShopConduct regular walkthroughs, inspections, and hazard observations across both job sites and shop facilities

The Coordinator plays a key role in making that partnership work at the operational level - both on job sites and within shop facilities.Work alongside Operations supervisors and Project Managers daily - not above them or separate from them - to reinforce safety expectations in real time

Support Operations leaders in fulfilling their safety responsibilities: help them understand requirements, prepare for high-risk tasks, and follow through on corrective actions
