As a WHS Manager, you'll oversee health and safety systems, manage incident reporting, conduct inspections, train staff, and foster a safety culture.
At Carma, we’re more than just a car company, we’re on a mission to shake up the Australian automotive industry! As a digital pre-owned car dealership, we’re turning the car buying (and selling!) experience into a hassle-free, seamless journey that customers can truly enjoy. With our diverse and collaborative team managing everything from engineering to marketing and buying to reconditioning in-house, we’re powered by the best people and we’d love for you to come along for the ride!
Now we need a WHS superstar to keep our teams safe, our sites humming, and make sure Carma’s magic keeps rolling! As our WHS Manager, you’ll own our Workplace Health & Safety system across all sites, coordinate contractors, oversee facilities, and make sure everything runs safely and smoothly. This is a hands-on, strategic role- you’ll be optimising systems, tracking performance, and helping Carma grow while keeping people safe.
What you'll be doing:
- Own, run, and continuously improve Carma’s WHS system- audits, inspections, incident investigations, toolbox talks, and inductions
- Manage incident reporting, injury management, and return-to-work processes
- Deliver WHS training for employees and contractors, and ensure all processes are followed before work starts
- Coordinate contractors onsite- making sure work gets done safely and efficiently
- Oversee facilities, including preventative maintenance schedules, repairs, service contracts, and capex/vendor projects
- Conduct daily, weekly, and monthly site inspections- keeping all sites compliant and operational
- Track, report, and optimise WHS metrics and dashboards
- Jump into projects, relocations, expansions, and upgrades as required
- Partner with team leaders to embed a proactive safety culture and identify gaps for improvement
Okay, let's talk about you:
- 3+ years’ experience in WHS within warehouse, manufacturing, industrial, or production environments
- Solid knowledge of Australian WHS legislation - Safe Work Australia, NSW WHS Act 2011, and compliance frameworks
- Experienced managing contractors and external service providers
- Strategic thinker who’s also hands-on and practical – you’re happy to roll up sleeves and get stuck in
- Comfortable owning systems, optimising processes, and driving continuous improvement
- Great communicator and stakeholder manager – you build relationships, influence teams, and get things done
- Bonus if you’ve got any formal qualifications or training to support WHS
