Travel Energy Marshal-Mission Critical

Layton Construction Company•Eagle Mountain, UT

About The Position

The Energy Marshal is a safety professional responsible for ensuring the safe execution of energization and isolation activities, with a focus on energy isolation procedures, auditing practices, and providing expert guidance on energy isolation standards. This role requires a strong safety background and technical expertise in energy isolation, particularly within a data center environment. The Energy Marshal manages the commissioning process during construction from pre-energization through project completion and turnover, including managing electrical room access permits and attendance, ensuring compliance with safe work practices, verifying commission plans, reviewing quality reports, and completing pre-energization inspections. They are responsible for the LOTO program on site, auditing energy isolation procedures, and acting as a subject matter expert. The role involves attending High Risk Activity (HRA) / Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) meetings, supporting procedure preparation, partnering with project teams for continuous improvement, and communicating complex technical solutions. The Energy Marshal audits site practices against established standards and interprets line drawings to ensure effective Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) system implementation. They provide expert guidance on energy isolation in environments with multiple energy sources, especially electrical systems, and serve as an independent authority to stop unsafe work practices.
