EHS Supervisor

EHS Supervisor

Safety leadership that powers the clean energy future. We're looking for a hands-on Site Construction Safety Supervisor to be the boots-on-the-ground safety champion at our BESS and PV construction sites. You'll take ownership of EHS programs where it matters most - in the field, every day - enforcing compliance, mitigating the unique hazards of battery storage and solar installations, and building a safety culture that sticks.

Working closely with the Site Construction Safety Manager, you'll be a driving force behind continuous improvement and a visible presence keeping crews safe on some of the most cutting-edge renewable energy projects in the industry.

• EHS Program Implementation & Enforcement: Directly implement and rigorously enforce site-specific EHS plans, procedures, and programs. Ensure all work activities strictly comply with OSHA (29 CFR 1910, 1926), NFPA 70E, local codes, and client requirements. Ensure strict adherence to permit-to-work systems for high-risk activities (e.g., hot work, confined space entry, excavation, high-voltage electrical work).
• On-Site Hazard Management & Risk Mitigation: Conduct frequent, thorough, and documented daily site inspections, walk-throughs, and audits to proactively identify potential hazards, unsafe conditions, and at-risk behaviors among all personnel, including subcontractors. Actively participate in and lead Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs), Pre-Task Planning (PTP) meetings, and daily toolbox talks, ensuring effective control measures are clearly understood and consistently applied. Proactively address and mitigate complex hazards specific to BESS and PV projects, including: battery thermal runaway prevention and response, arc flash and electrical shock hazards (AC/DC), safe handling, lifting, and installation of battery modules and PV panels, working at heights on solar arrays and racking systems, excavation safety (trenching, shoring, utility locates), and safe operation of heavy lifting equipment and mobile machinery.
• Safety Training & Awareness: Deliver engaging site-specific EHS orientations and daily toolbox talks to all new personnel and existing crews. Assist the Site Construction Safety Manager in delivering specialized hazard training (e.g., LOTO, arc flash, fall protection, confined space, battery safety, emergency response). Champion and promote a positive safety culture by consistently reinforcing safe behaviors, encouraging proactive hazard reporting, and fostering peer-to-peer safety observations.
• Incident First Response & Reporting: Act as a primary first responder to incidents, accidents, and near misses, ensuring immediate safety measures are taken and emergency services are contacted if necessary. Assist the Site Construction Safety Manager in preliminary incident investigations, meticulously gathering information, conducting interviews, and accurately documenting findings. Ensure timely and accurate initial reporting of all incidents to the Site Construction Safety Manager and relevant project leadership.
• Compliance & Documentation Support: Assist in maintaining comprehensive EHS documentation, including daily inspection logs, training records, incident reports, and safety meeting minutes. Support the Site Construction Safety Manager in preparing and submitting required EHS reports to corporate EHS and clients. Verify that all personnel have and consistently use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for their assigned tasks.
• Subcontractor Safety Oversight: Continuously monitor and evaluate subcontractor EHS performance on-site, ensuring their work activities align with company standards, project requirements, and regulatory compliance. Communicate EHS expectations clearly to all subcontractor personnel and promptly address any observed deviations or non-compliance.
• Emergency Preparedness & Response: Ensure all personnel are thoroughly aware of and trained on site-specific emergency response plans (e.g., fire, medical, hazardous spills, severe weather). Verify that all emergency equipment (e.g., fire extinguishers, spill kits, first aid supplies, AEDs) is readily available, properly maintained, and personnel are trained in its correct use.
• Communication & Leadership: Serve as a direct, approachable, and knowledgeable safety resource for all personnel on site, providing clear guidance and answering EHS-related questions. Foster open communication channels, actively encouraging workers to report concerns, utilize stop-work authority when necessary, and suggest safety improvements. Lead by example, consistently demonstrating an unwavering personal commitment to safety in all actions, decisions, and interactions, inspiring others to prioritize safety above all else.
