What they need
Be the WHS expert clients turn to for practical safety and psychosocial risk advice — in the office and on site.
Why you'll love this role:
- Genuine variety — advisory, audits, policy review and training
- Build trusted, long-term relationships with clients nationally
- Psychosocial risk is core to the role, not a bolt-on
What you'll be responsible for
This role sits within our Citation Safety advisory team, and reports to our Head of WHS. Here's what your days will look like:
- Provide accurate, practical WHS and psychosocial risk advice to clients, grounded in current regulatory codes of practice and model WHS laws.
- Review client WHS policies, procedures and psychosocial risk frameworks, identifying gaps and recommending improvements.
- Plan and deliver desktop and on-site WHS audits, including site walk-throughs, worker consultation and hazard identification.
- Prepare clear, actionable audit reports outlining findings, risk ratings and prioritised recommendations.
- Support clients to implement WHS and psychosocial risk management plans, including corrective actions arising from audits.
- Deliver client training and webinars on WHS and psychosocial risk topics.
Who we're looking for
You bring technical rigour to WHS advice and don't wait for problems to escalate before you act. Beyond that, here's what will set you up for success in this role:
- A relevant WHS qualification (e.g. Diploma or Certificate IV in WHS) or equivalent demonstrated experience.
- Sound working knowledge of Australian WHS legislation, Codes of Practice and psychosocial hazard requirements.
- Experience conducting WHS audits and preparing formal audit reports.
- Strong written communication skills, with the ability to produce clear, professional advice and reports.
- Confidence advising clients directly and managing sensitive conversations.
- Willingness and ability to travel interstate to client sites as required.
Why Citation Group?
We're proud to have been named an Employer of Choice for 9 years running. Here's what you can actually expect:
- Flexible/hybrid working — genuine work/life balance, not just a buzzword.
- Parental leave up to 16 weeks paid — because family comes first.
- Birthday leave because nobody should work on their birthday
- Volunteer day leave to give back to causes you care about.
- Reward & recognition program that goes big — yes, including trips to Bali!
- Real growth we’re in a major growth phase, tripling in size through organic growth and acquisitions. Your ceiling is high.
- Autonomy to manage your own caseload and client relationships.
