Wanted: A Partner in Safety, Not the Safety Police
At OFI's Carwarp plant, just outside Mildura, we turn a great many almonds into a great deal of product. It's a busy site with processing, logistics, stockpads and plenty of moving machinery. What it needs now is one person who makes sure everyone goes home in the same condition they arrived.
This is the only safety role on site, so there's no hiding behind someone else's clipboard. If you're happiest with your boots on the floor and your eyes on what's actually happening, read on. If you prefer your safety from behind a monitor, this probably isn't your nut to crack.
You'll have the authority to stop the plant when something isn't right, and the backbone to use it. That doesn't make this a policing role, and it isn't a popularity contest either. The right person will be respected rather than everyone's mate: firm when it counts and fair every time. You care about safety because you care about people, and you understand that product quality and OFI's reputation depend on getting it right too.
