You’ll be based at one of our sites. This means that you can closely track what’s happening and people can easily ask you any questions throughout their shifts. This role is all about spotting potential issues before they happen. You’ll spend a lot of time checking the site and getting to know the way that people use equipment. By understanding how every task and machine works, you’ll be able to think about the best way to keep processes safe.
You’ll also be one of the people to put safety changes into action, which means you’ll get to work closely with lots of people. Alongside your daily and weekly tasks, you’ll offer support to our Operations team on ad-hoc safety-related work.
Safety is so important to Amazon, and you’ll help us gather the vital data that keeps us on top of our processes and ahead of any issues. You’ll also share that data with people across the business and work with other teams to make sure they’re putting safety first.
