- Maintain oversight of action tracking and compliance calendar systems, hold action owners accountable for on-time completion and provide coaching to improve performance

- Understand and track compliance of key regulatory, legislative and internal (HASAWA, MHSAW, RIDDOR) standards and/or requirements and highlight reports to WHS Manager as needed

- Complete daily standard work as determined by WHS Manager and communicate completion of standard work to WHS team

- Advise and collaborate with the operations team to undertake and review of scheduled and dynamic risk assessments as required, to ensure we can meet our customer promise safely, while proactively monitoring the deployment of control measures.

- Learn, understand and implement Amazon WHS procedures, providing specialist and technical WHS advice and support to leadership.

- Conduct yourself professionally at all times: you maintain confidentiality in matters involving safety investigations

- Assist with coaching, training, and briefing to operational teams (all levels) to ensure compliance with the safety management system and promoting safe behaviours
