Job Description
This is an opportunity to grow your SHE career inside one of the world's leading infrastructure consultancies. As a SHE Advisor within AECOM's ANZ team, you will join us on a 12‐month fixed‐term basis, working alongside experienced practitioners on a diverse range of projects and programmes, building the practical knowledge and confidence to become a trusted safety professional.
Responsibilities
* Serve as the go‐to SHE resource for frontline teams and leaders, providing practical, timely advice on safety, health and environment matters that helps people work confidently and safely every day.
* Play an active role in the fundamentals that keep a safety management system strong by contributing to audits, inspections, incident investigations, risk assessments and the continuous improvement of SHE processes and tools.
* Bring critical risk programmes and SHE initiatives to life by coordinating committee meetings, supporting injury prevention and return‐to‐work activities, and helping embed safe work practices across the business.
* Partner with project teams to provide SHE input across planning, design reviews and field activities, ensuring work is set up safely and that AECOM's standards are reflected at every stage of delivery.
* Produce clear, well‐structured written materials including reports, training content, investigation summaries and bid submissions that communicate important safety information in a way people can actually use.
Qualifications
* A relevant tertiary qualification in safety, health, environment or a related discipline with around 3‐4 years of experience in a comparable role — however we will consider people with less experience. Exposure to an operational or construction setting is a bonus, though what we value most is genuine curiosity and a real commitment to growing in the profession.
* Confident, clear communication across all levels – someone who writes with purpose, listens to understand, asks thoughtful questions and knows how to make complex requirements feel simple and actionable for the people who need to apply them.
* Solid organisational ability and a strong sense of personal accountability, with the capability to juggle a varied workload, deliver on commitments and exercise good judgement about when to elevate or seek guidance.
* A genuine ability to connect with people and build trust over time, working comfortably alongside colleagues, clients and contractors and earning respect through reliability and a sincere interest in shared outcomes.
* An appetite for growth and a healthy openness to feedback, with the kind of initiative and care for quality that comes from wanting to do the work well – not just wanting it finished.
* Ability to work flexibly in the office, at home or in the field.
Benefits
* Flexible work arrangements, including alternative start/finish times, part‐time, job‐sharing and hybrid work options.
* Purchase up to 6 weeks additional annual leave per year.
* Flex public holidays – swap Easter or other holidays for ones that suit you better.
* Continuous learning and growth – lunch and learns, professional development courses, financial study assistance, 5 days paid study leave, global career opportunities.
