We're hiring an experienced, hands-on Site Safety Advisor / First Aid Attendant for an active construction site. This is a field role, not a desk job: you'll spend most of your day on site working directly with supervisors, subcontractors, trades, and workers. You'll be backed by a friendly, supportive team that listens when you raise a concern and has your back when a conversation gets firm. You'll have the autonomy to run your day and the authority to act on what you see.

What You’ll Do

- Act as the onsite safety representative and address unsafe acts and conditions immediately.
- Communicate site safety expectations clearly and professionally; follow up until corrective actions are done.
- Conduct regular site inspections; document hazards, deficiencies, and follow-up items.
- Provide first aid coverage per the project's first aid assessment and WorkSafeBC requirements; respond to injuries and emergencies and keep first aid records current.
- Escalate serious, repeated, or unresolved concerns to site management.
- Assist with orientations, toolbox talks, safety meetings, incident/near-miss investigations, and emergency drills.
- Maintain cones, barricades, signage, and exclusion zones; fix minor deficiencies and do light housekeeping where secure.
- Complete a daily site safety report and maintain inspection reports, incident documentation, orientation/training records, and safety boards. Daily reporting is a core requirement and must be finished before end of shift.
- Assist with reasonable light-duty site tasks when safety and first aid duties permit.

What We’re Looking For

- Current NCSO® designation (or equivalent construction safety qualification).
- Current WorkSafeBC Level 2 (Intermediate)

- Strong verbal and written communication and documentation skills.
- Able to work independently and prioritize multiple safety and administrative responsibilities throughout the day.
- Comfortable with phones, tablets, email, and digital safety-management systems.
- Physically able to walk the site, use stairs, work outdoors, and do light physical duties.
- Reliable, punctual, and consistently onsite.
