About The Position

Spreetail is seeking an EHS Manager for its fulfillment center in Lincoln, Nebraska. This is an onsite role, five days per week, and an individual-contributor position responsible for both the strategy and hands-on execution of safety programs.

The position owns injury metrics, OSHA recordkeeping and investigations, safety training completion, monthly audits, emergency preparedness, and workers’ compensation processes. It partners with Operations and P&C to identify root causes, complete corrective and preventive actions, maintain training and emergency readiness across shifts, and reduce claim costs.
