  • Experience leading safety initiatives, programs, or cross-functional teams.
  • Strong communication, presentation, and report-writing skills.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications, including Word and Excel.
  • Valid CPR/First Aid certification.
  • Valid driver's licence and access to a vehicle for travel between offices and construction sites.
