About The Role

Be the force that drives safety, innovation and high‑performing WHS leadership across a complex health environment.

As the Manager, Health & Safety Operations, you’ll lead a district‑wide WHS team that supports every CCLHD facility and service. This is more than a management role, it’s a unique opportunity to :

  • Unite and uplift a WHS team dispersed across multiple sites, fostering cohesion and high performance.
  • Influence safety culture at all levels, from the boardroom to the frontline while navigating the pressures of a complex, dynamic health system.
  • Lead innovation and change, challenging the status quo to embed proactive, preventative safety practices.
  • Coach and motivate others through clarity, connection, and capability uplift, especially during periods of stress or operational complexity.
  • Build partnerships with executive leaders, SafeWork NSW, unions and frontline managers to deliver results that matter.

You’ll report directly to the Associate Director, Health Safety & Wellbeing to drive performance, harness data insights, embed psychosocial risk prevention, and ensure safety is part of everyone's everyday.

About You

  • Proven experience leading WHS teams in complex, multi‑site environments.
  • Strong interpersonal influence and a confident, grounded approach when engaging senior stakeholders and highly pressured teams.

  • A strategic and solutions‑focused mindset—you don’t wait for change, you lead it.
  • Why You'll Love It Here

  • Be part of an organisation that puts people first, from our workforce to our patients.
  • Drive district‑wide impact in a role that blends leadership, legislation, innovation and care.
  • Collaborate in a forward‑thinking People & Culture team that’s committed to growing its WHS footprint.

  • Applicants must have current work rights in Australia or be a permanent resident or citizen.
