• Manage field staffing requirements, performance and operational challenges
• Maintain visibility across active projects and ensure appropriate leadership support
• Support safety planning, compliance, audits, incident management and continuous improvement
• Track account performance and contribute to revenue forecasting and growth initiatives

Ideal Background

We are particularly interested in candidates coming from a third-party safety consulting, outsourced EHS or safety staffing environment, rather than purely internal safety positions.

The ideal candidate will bring:

• Significant construction safety / EHS leadership experience
• Experience managing multiple projects and geographically dispersed safety professionals
• Strong client-facing and account-management capabilities
• Experience within a consulting, professional services or outsourced safety organization
• Commercial awareness with the ability to identify and develop additional business within an existing client
• Experience supporting data centers, mission-critical construction or other large-scale complex projects strongly preferred
• Strong understanding of construction safety programs, OSHA requirements, audits, incident management and contractor safety
• Executive-level communication and relationship-building skills
• Ability to collaborate effectively with operations, executive leadership and sales teams
• Willingness to travel approximately 50% nationally

Compensation & Incentives

The position offers a $150,000–$165,000 base salary, together with a monthly bonus tied to billed revenue.

There are also additional financial incentives for account growth and high-growth performance, creating considerable upside for someone capable of expanding the relationship.

Travel & Location

This is a national position supporting projects across multiple markets, with current activity concentrated around:

Dallas, TX | Atlanta, GA | Northern/Central Virginia

Candidates should live within convenient access of a major airport. Dallas is the preferred location, with Atlanta also considered particularly attractive.

Travel is expected to be approximately 50%, with the position structured to allow the successful candidate to return home on weekends.
