Join One of Austin’s Best Places to Work

We’re proud to share that our company was recently recognized as one of Austin’s Best Places to Work—and we’re continuing to grow.

We are seeking a hands-on Safety Manager to lead, enforce, and elevate safety across our construction operations. This is not a desk-only role—you’ll be equally engaged in the field and in the office, driving real impact where it matters most.

If you’re a construction safety professional who thrives on accountability, leadership, and building a culture where safety comes first—this is your opportunity to step into a high-impact role with a company that truly values its people.

What You’ll Do

Lead Safety Culture

Champion a company-wide commitment to zero injuries and continuous improvement
Serve as the primary safety authority across both field and office operations
Partner with project teams, foremen, and leadership to enforce and elevate safety standards
Promote accountability while recognizing and reinforcing safe work practices
Training & Onboarding
Lead new hire OSHA and safety onboarding, ensuring every employee is jobsite-ready
Develop and deliver safety training programs (fall protection, hazard analysis, equipment safety, etc.)
Maintain accurate records of training, certifications, and compliance documentation

Field Safety (50%)

Conduct routine and unannounced jobsite inspections
Observe crews in real-time and proactively correct unsafe behaviors
Attend preconstruction meetings, job start-ups, and safety briefings
Collaborate with GCs and customer safety teams to ensure alignment
Identify hazards and implement corrective actions on the spot
Office & Administrative Safety (50%)
Prepare and manage safety submittals, site-specific plans, and compliance documentation
Handle jobsite incident reporting, injury claims, and investigations
Conduct root cause analysis and implement corrective action plans
Track safety metrics and report trends to leadership
Ensure OSHA compliance across all projects and operations
Program Oversight & Compliance
Maintain and enforce OSHA standards and company safety policies
Oversee PPE programs, inspections, and distribution
Ensure all jobs meet safety requirements from preconstruction through completion
Stay current on regulatory updates and industry best practices

What We’re Looking For

Required:

Proven experience as a Safety Manager or Safety Professional in a construction environment
Strong working knowledge of OSHA standards and construction safety practices
Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook)
Ability to split time effectively between field and office responsibilities
Strong communication, leadership, and organizational skills

Preferred:

OSHA 500 certification (highly preferred)
OSHA 30 (minimum baseline)
CHST, CSP, or other advanced safety certifications
Experience working on commercial construction jobsites

What You Can Expect

A company recognized as one of Austin’s Best Places to Work
A role where you are visible, respected, and impactful
The opportunity to shape and lead safety culture, not just enforce it
Competitive compensation and long-term career stability
A team that values people, accountability, and doing things the right way

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a true 50/50 leadership role—not stuck behind a desk, and not just walking jobs. You’ll have ownership over both the strategy and execution of safety, making a measurable difference every day.
