About The Position

The Safety Advisor IV provides senior-level safety oversight for new construction and renovation projects throughout the Auburn, Massachusetts region. Projects may include commercial, industrial, institutional, energy, infrastructure, and wastewater facilities. The role is approximately 80% field-based and 20% office-based, with visits to an average of five to eight sites per week. Larger or more complex projects may require concentrated support at one or two locations. The advisor serves as an experienced coach and trusted safety resource for project teams. Success requires influencing safe behavior, building credibility with field personnel, supporting investigations, and promoting accountability through strong relationships rather than a policing approach. The role involves travel between regional project sites and on-site work, with no remote-work arrangement. A full benefits package, company vehicle, and fuel card are provided.
