Environmental, Health & Safety Specialist — 1st & 2nd Shift
If you've spent your career making sure people go home the same way they came in, this is a place where that work actually gets noticed. You'll be embedded on a manufacturing plant floor, running inspections, leading training, and working shoulder to shoulder with supervisors and maintenance to solve real problems — not filing reports that disappear into a drawer.
This is a plant that wants a safety program built by someone who's actually walked a floor before, not just read about one. You'll have the latitude to run your own inspection schedule, build out training content, and shape how safety gets talked about day to day.
Why This Opportunity Is Different
Direct access to plant leadership on safety decisions, not layers of sign-off. You'll work cross-functionally with supervisors, maintenance, and production instead of sitting off to the side. There's room to grow the role as programs mature, and the schedule flexibility (1st or 2nd shift) is built in from day one rather than something you have to negotiate for.
What You'll Be Doing
- Lead routine safety inspections that catch hazards before they become incidents
- Support investigations into incidents, injuries, near misses, and property damage
- Run machine guarding, Lockout/Tagout, PPE, housekeeping, fire protection, and emergency equipment checks
- Build Job Safety Analyses, risk assessments, and safe work procedures
- Deliver new-hire safety orientations and ongoing toolbox talks
- Administer core safety programs — PPE, hearing conservation, respiratory protection, forklift safety, confined space, hot work, and ergonomics
- Champion hazard reporting and continuous improvement among employees
- Partner with supervisors, maintenance, production, and management to resolve safety concerns
What We're Looking For - High school diploma or equivalent with at least 2 years of related EHS experience
- Working knowledge of OSHA regulations
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Excellent organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects at once
- Strong decision-making and problem-solving ability
- Solid computer skills
- Ability to lift up to 50 lbs
- CNA, EMR, or EMT certification is a plus
Compensation & Work Model $20–$26 per hour, depending on experience. This is an onsite role.
Location & Travel Goodwater, Alabama.
