HSE Coordinator
Our client is a leading, privately owned infrastructure and construction company with over 10,000 people across North America and internationally. In Canada, they deliver energy, infrastructure and construction projects, and their Eastern Division is growing, with a strong pipeline of pipe services work ahead.
Safety sits at the heart of everything they do. Every employee, whatever their role, is empowered and expected to stop work if they see something unsafe. They are now looking for an experienced HSE Coordinator to lead health, safety and environment for the Eastern Division. You will be the go-to safety person across the project sites, the office and the shop/yard.
This is a permanent role with real ownership. You will plan your own week, work closely with site leadership, and be backed by an established HSE team in Western Canada. There is also room to grow across a wide range of work, including pipeline, heavy civil, deep foundations and tunnelling.

- Delivering orientation and training, such as WHMIS, Confined Space and PPE
- Making sure subcontractors meet safety requirements
- Supporting the alcohol and drug testing programme
- Keeping safety statistics, records and training files up to date
What you’ll bring
- 5+ years of hands-on HSE experience in construction or industrial environments
- Confidence working independently, prioritising your own workload and knowing when to escalate
- The ability to influence and build trust with crews and site leadership
- Strong communication skills, both on site and in writing
- A valid driver’s licence
- NCSO, CRST, CRSP, CSO or a diploma in OH&S would be a strong advantage
What’s on offer
