Symal Infrastructure is delivering the $347M civil works package for the 400MW Gawara Baya Wind Farm, one of Queensland's landmark renewable energy developments, located approximately 2.5 hours from Townsville.
We're looking for an experienced HSEQ Advisor to join our high-performing project team and help drive a proactive, high-performing safety culture across a major civil construction project.
If you're a hands-on HSEQ professional who enjoys being in the field, building strong relationships and influencing positive safety outcomes, this is an opportunity to make a genuine impact while advancing your career with one of Australia's leading civil contractors.
Why join Symal?
- 30% FIFO uplift
- Free flights, accommodation and meals
- Long-term project with future opportunities across Australia
- Career development and leadership pathways
- Work on one of Queensland's largest renewable energy projects
- Collaborative, safety-first culture where your input is valued
About the role
As the HSEQ Advisor, you'll be a visible leader on site, partnering with project managers, supervisors, employees and subcontractors to embed safe work practices and continually improve project performance.
