🎯What We’re Looking For

We’re not just looking for a certificate holder — we’re looking for someone who understands how theory meets reality on a construction site.

Here’s what success looks like.

• Experience in Health & Safety roles on construction projects — preferably in complex, multi-contractor environments.
• In-depth knowledge of Romanian health & safety legislation (especially HG 300/2006) and practical application on-site.
• Comfortable preparing and reviewing risk assessments, H&S plans, and method statements.
• Previous involvement in incident/accident investigations and ability to advise on improvement plans.

Your Skills:

• Strong communication — you can speak the language of engineers, architects, contractors, and regulators.
• You’re methodical, but you adapt quickly when the site reality shifts.
• Confident using Microsoft Office; bonus if you're familiar with digital tools for site documentation.
• Excellent English — both spoken and written.

Qualifications:

• A bachelor’s degree in a technical field such as Engineering, Agricultural Sciences, or Forestry Sciences.
• Completed the 80h or 120h Occupational Health & Safety training course, in line with Romanian regulatory requirements.
• Certified in fire safety: Completed the 136-hour Technical Staff with fire safety and firefighting responsibilities certification (equivalent to international Fire Marshal / Fire Warden level).
• H&S Coordinator Certification: 90-hour training program for candidates with higher education, or a 60-hour training program for those with secondary education, combined with a Construction and Public Works Technician course.
• A full Category B driving license — essential for on-site mobility.

👷‍We’re Hiring: H&S Specialist for Construction Site in Vatra Dornei, Suceava County

As part of our dedicated on-site H&S consultancy team, this role is all about being present — physically, mentally, and professionally — right in the middle of the action, on the construction site at Vatra Dornei. You’ll be the right hand of our H&S Specialist and the key point of contact for our client when it comes to keeping people safe, procedures sharp, and projects compliant with Government Decision no. 300/2006 and all relevant national legislation.

Are you based in the Vatra Dornei area? Then this could be the perfect opportunity for you to make a real impact — not only by enforcing standards but by shaping a strong, proactive safety culture.

Position Summary: You’ll be actively supervising the operations carried out by the client’s contractors on site, identifying occupational hazards and risks of injury, evaluating safety-critical activities, and ensuring the construction processes are both legally compliant and practically safe.

🗓 What You'll Be Doing (Yes, It's Hands-On!)

This is not a desk job — it's about being where the work happens, and you will:

• You'll lead H&S activities during both design and execution phases, making sure everything aligns with Romanian and EU safety legislation for temporary/mobile sites.
• You'll perform risk assessments and root cause analyses, recommending both immediate and long-term corrective actions.
• Conduct regular site inspections and safety audits, supporting compliance and continuous improvement.
• You'll organize induction sessions, coordinate first aid/fire safety trainings, and empower the workforce through practical, clear guidance.
• In the event of an accident or near miss, you'll lead investigations and implement preventative strategies.
• You'll keep all H&S records up to date, from COSHH assessments to emergency plans and fire drills.
