Safety Leader

Open to candidates in Sydney or Brisbane or Melbourne

At Compass Group Australia, safety is more than a framework — it’s a shared commitment grounded in care, respect, and strong leadership. We partner with some of the largest and most complex mining, offshore and remote operations in the market, delivering essential services where safety and wellbeing truly matter.

We are seeking an experienced and values-led Safety Leader to help shape safer, healthier and more inclusive workplaces across these environments.

This is a highly influential leadership role, ideal for a safety professional who is passionate about developing leaders, empowering teams, and embedding a strong safety culture across geographically dispersed and operationally complex sites.

About the Role

You will work closely with Executive Directors, General Managers and operational leaders across our Education portfolio to drive sustainable safety outcomes.

You will lead a team of safety professionals and play a pivotal role in strengthening Our Safety Culture, supporting leaders at every level to understand risk, lead with care, and take ownership of safety outcomes.

This role offers a blend of strategic influence and hands-on leadership, with the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on people’s lives every day.

Key Responsibilities

You will:

  • Partner with Executive Directors and General Managers to drive continuous safety improvement
  • Coach leaders at all levels to embed Our Safety Culture and lead safety with care and accountability
  • Lead and develop a high-performing team of safety professionals
  • Strengthen food safety, allergen management, and critical risk controls across operations
  • Support safe mobilisations for new sites and growth initiatives
  • Drive effective hazard identification, risk management, and incident investigations
  • Ensure lessons learned are shared and embedded across the business
  • Contribute to tender and client engagement activities by demonstrating strong safety capability
  • Support ongoing certification to Australian and international HSEQ standards

What You’ll Bring

We’re looking for a leader who balances technical expertise with empathy, influence and strong communication.

You will ideally bring:

  • 10+ years’ experience leading safety in large-scale, remote or complex environments
  • Proven ability to influence senior leaders and build trusted partnerships
  • Experience implementing and improving HSEQ systems across multi-site operations
  • Strong knowledge of WHS legislation and HACCP
  • Demonstrated experience strengthening food safety and allergen controls, with a strong focus on protecting vulnerable populations in education and early learning care settings
  • A people-centred leadership style with a genuine care for wellbeing
  • Relevant WHS qualifications (Degree/Diploma and/or Cert IV WHS)
  • Confidence using data and insights to inform decision-making

Why Join Us?

At Compass Group, you’ll find:

  • A workplace where safety leadership is genuinely valued
  • Strong support for flexibility, balance and wellbeing
  • A culture that welcomes diverse perspectives and inclusive leadership
  • The opportunity to influence safety outcomes at scale

If you don’t meet every requirement but feel aligned with the role and our values, we’d love to hear from you.

Working with a large global company means you can be assured that we have an attractive benefits program! This includes comprehensive learning & development offerings, a variety of recognition programs and company discounts, an excellent salary benchmarking matrix and at this management level also includes an incentive bonus scheme! You can read all about these here: Why work at Compass

We are committed to providing a recruitment process that is fair, equitable and accessible for all. If you require adjustments or alternative methods of communication in the recruitment process, please reach out to us on either 1300TALENT or careers@compass-group.com.au
