Field Safety Specialist
Ellerbrock-Norris, Omaha, NE, United States
Construction Safety Consulting | Omaha, NE (Travel to Job Sites Required)
If you’ve spent your career on construction sites - not behind a desk - and know how to command respect while keeping people safe, keep reading.
We’re looking for a Field Safety Specialist to partner directly with our clients across active construction projects. This isn’t a clipboard-only role. You’ll be in the field - walking sites, training crews, and stepping in when something doesn’t look right.
What You’ll Actually Do
You’ll be the go-to safety expert on-site, working with contractors, GCs, and client teams to keep projects moving safely and efficiently.
In the field:
Conduct job site safety audits (planned + unannounced)
Identify hazards and hold teams accountable to OSHA and site standards
Review JHAs, AHAs, and pre-task plans
Training & coaching:
Lead OSHA training, toolbox talks, and safety orientations
Deliver CPR/First Aid/AED certification training
Train and certify operators on lifts, forklifts, and other equipment
When things go sideways:
Respond to incidents and near misses
Lead investigations and determine root cause
Support clients through OSHA inspections and audits
Beyond the job site:
Help clients build and improve safety programs
Act as a trusted advisor, not just an enforcer
Provide real-world, practical safety guidance that actually sticks
What It Takes
This role isn’t for everyone. You’ll do well here if you:
Have 5+ years in construction safety (not general industry)
Hold OSHA 500 & 510 certifications
Can train crews and communicate clearly, both on-site and in reports
Know OSHA 29 CFR 1926 like it’s your playbook
Are comfortable working in active construction environments (heights, weather, mud, all of it)
What Gives You an Edge
CHST, CSP, ASP, or STS-C certifications
Experience across multiple job sites or clients
Additional equipment certifications (rigging, crane, etc.)
What This Role Is (and Isn’t)
Field-based, hands-on, high-impact
Client-facing and relationship-driven
A mix of enforcement, coaching, and problem-solving
Not internal-only safety
Not for someone new to construction
Competitive salary based on experience
Ongoing training and certification support
