What you’ll be doing…

As a Verizon Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) consultant, you will work with various stakeholders to assess and reduce risk and interpret regulations and standards. Using your strong verbal and written communication skills, you will perform inspections, develop and review programs, and interact with field technicians, Safety Points of Contact, and leadership to understand, identify and mitigate health and safety risks and hazards. You will work independently while being collaborative in a team environment. You must have demonstrated knowledge of high-risk/safety-sensitive activities and applicable regulations and standards. A proven track record of successful implementation of risk reduction in a workplace setting is required. 

Role responsibilities include:

  • Identifying and supporting compliance with Verizon programs, regulatory environment, health and safety regulations, and best management practices.
  • Acting as a Subject Matter Expert in the development and updating of safety-related training, programs, and documents, and Verizon “rodeos” and “Day of Safety” sessions.
  • Advising the operational management team on regulatory compliance, incident reporting, and root cause analysis.
  • Providing regional support for health and safety activities, including interfacing with regulators and investigating serious incidents.
  • Owning targeted safety initiatives including special projects.

What we're looking for…

You'll need to have:

  • Bachelor's degree or four or more years of work experience.
  • Four or more years of relevant experience required, demonstrated through work and/or military experience.
  • Work experience in an occupational setting.
  • EHS or operations experience.
  • Knowledge of health and safety regulations.
  • A valid driver's license.
  • Willingness to travel up to approximately 25% of the time.

Even better if you have one or more of the following:

  • Degree in Safety, EHS, or related field.
  • Six Sigma training in LEAN or DMAIC process.
  • Certified Safety Professional, Certified Industrial Hygienist, Certified Six Sigma Green or Black Belt.
  • Experience in Human and Organizational Performance.
  • Organizational and project management skills with demonstrated ability to manage multiple, often conflicting priorities to successful completion.
  • Demonstrated strategic thinking skills.
  • Demonstrated strong communication skills, both in spoken and written word.
  • Experience in driving change.
  • Demonstrated ability to collaborate and build successful relationships with internal stakeholders, including those at the senior level.

If Verizon and this role sound like a fit for you, we encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet every “even better” qualification listed above.
