We are seeking local candidate who is an energetic, field-focused Safety Coordinator to join our team immediately in Sparks, NV. This is a boots-on-the-ground role where the majority of time will be spent in the field — embedded alongside craft professionals and foremen where the work is happening.

Our client's organization operates as a learning culture
, not a compliance-policing environment. Success in this role requires someone who prioritizes engagement, coaching, hazard recognition, and strong integration into pre-task planning processes. The right individual will build trust quickly, support the workforce, and positively influence the overall safety culture.

This position is ideal for a safety professional early in their career who brings energy and personality to the team — while also understanding when situations require seriousness, discipline, and professionalism.

• Engage crews through coaching, mentoring, and relationship building
• Lead and support effective pre-task planning and hazard analysis
• Identify, recognize, and mitigate jobsite hazards in real time
• Contribute to a proactive, learning-driven safety culture
• Deliver safety messaging at all-hands meetings and field briefings
• Partner with operations and leadership to support safe execution of work
• Promote trust and approachability — serving as a partner, not an enforcer
• Current shift:
  Days
• High likelihood of transitioning to night shift in ~5 months
• Candidates must be flexible and willing to adjust schedules as project needs evolve

• 4–5+ years of construction safety experience
• Local to Sparks, NV as no per diem is offered
• Strong field presence and comfort working directly with craft
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
• Ability to confidently speak in group settings and mass meetings
• Proven ability to build rapport and trust quickly on jobsites

One or more of the following is strongly preferred:

• GSP (Graduate Safety Practitioner)
• STSC (Safety Trained Supervisor – Construction)
• CHST (Construction Health & Safety Technician)

Candidates without certifications may still be considered based on experience and ability to successfully pass the Nevada OSHA Safety Coordinator interview process.

• Early-career safety professional
• Field-oriented and highly engaged
• Approachable, relatable, and team-driven
• Brings energy and personality to the workforce
• Balances positivity with authority when required
• Viewed as a partner to the work — not “the safety cop”
