Health & Safety Facilitator- Iowa

Red Tree Engineering

7d•Onsite

About The Position

Redtree is seeking Health & Safety Facilitators to support active data center construction projects across our Iowa sites. This role is a day-to-day, field-based presence on the construction site, working alongside the general contractor, trade partners, and the owner's representatives to reinforce safe work practices and help build a strong, visible safety culture. This is a hands-on, in-the-field role rather than a desk-based compliance function, candidates should be comfortable spending the large majority of their time walking the site and engaging directly with crews.

Requirements

Approximately 10 years of relevant construction safety experience.
A strong construction-safety background on large-scale construction projects.
Comfortable being out in the field monitoring active construction, not working primarily from an office or trailer.
Can work effectively and diplomatically with the general contractor, trade partners, and owner's representatives.
Have the presence and communication skills to help build and reinforce a strong safety culture on site.
Bring practical, hands-on field experience — a college degree is not required for this role.

Nice To Haves

Experience on mission-critical projects (data centers, power, or similarly critical facilities) preferred but not required.
Direct experience supporting data center or other mission-critical construction projects.
Relevant safety certifications (e.g., OSHA 30, CHST, or equivalent) are a plus.
Experience working across multiple concurrent sites or with a traveling/multi-site safety role.

Responsibilities

Monitor day-to-day construction activities in the field, observing work in progress and identifying at-risk conditions or behaviors before they become incidents.
Work closely with the general contractor, trade partners, and owner's representatives to align on safety expectations, resolve field-level concerns, and support a coordinated site safety program.
Help build and strengthen the project's safety culture through visible presence, coaching, and consistent reinforcement of safe practices among trade partners and crews.
Support safety orientations, toolbox talks, and onboarding for trade partners new to the site.
Document field observations, near-misses, and safety walk findings, and help drive corrective actions to closure.
Bring an understanding of the heightened safety expectations on large-scale, mission-critical construction projects to daily site activities.
