Create safer workplaces. Protect people. Make an impact.

Are you passionate about fostering a safe work workplace where people can thrive? Do you enjoy working closely with teams, contractors, and stakeholders to promote a culture of safety and continuous improvement? If so, this opportunity may be the perfect fit.

As a Coordinator, Health & Safety, you'll play a key role in supporting construction sites and regional offices by providing practical guidance and support on health and safety practices. You'll be a trusted resource, helping teams identify risks, strengthen safety programs, and maintain safe, healthy workplaces through collaboration, education, and continuous improvement.

Unlike a Prime Contractor, DCC acts as an Owner's Representative. While Prime Contractors are responsible for health and safety on their project sites, this role focuses on providing guidance, reviewing health and safety programs, and monitoring contractor performance to help ensure contractual and provincial OH&S; requirements are met.

By becoming a team member of a trusted partner of the Government of Canada and the Canadian construction industry since 1951, you will have the opportunity to support infrastructure projects that contribute directly to Canada's defence and operational readiness. DCC is proud to be the first federal—and only government—organization recognized as a Gold Seal Employer under the Canadian Construction Association's Construction Management Certification Program, demonstrating our commitment to excellence, safety, and professional development.

If you're a proactive problem-solver with strong communication skills and a passion for workplace safety, this role is for you.

When incidents occur, you’ll support investigations, coordinate reporting requirements, support identification of contributing factors, and help teams develop practical corrective actions.

Build Partnerships & Drive Improvement
You’ll work closely with project teams, contractors, Client-Partners, and regulatory authorities to strengthen safety practices, share lessons learned, and promote continuous improvement throughout the organization.

Lead Training & Knowledge Sharing
You’ll serve as a health and safety resource for DCC by coordinating safety meetings, supporting corporate and local health and safety initiatives, and facilitating training and knowledge-sharing activities.
