About this role
Lead safety for the construction and launch of a state of the art manufacturing facility, shaping how safety is built into the operation from the ground up.
Own the journey from construction through Day 1 and beyond—building the programs, culture, and team you’ll ultimately lead as Site Safety Manager.
Key job responsibilities
This role serves as the primary Safety subject matter expert and strategic partner for construction leadership, contractors, engineering teams, operations, and other stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle. The Construction Safety Manager will develop, implement, and continuously improve comprehensive construction safety programs designed to identify hazards early, reduce or eliminate risk, ensure regulatory compliance, and establish a strong safety culture from initial construction through operational readiness.

You’ll influence critical decisions, eliminate hazards before they reach production, and build the programs and mechanisms that will support the facility for years to come. Most importantly, you’ll help build the Safety team and culture you’ll ultimately lead as the facility transitions from construction to full manufacturing operations.
