Position Overview

The Traveling Safety Coordinator will be embedded with RIS installation teams at assigned job sites, working alongside crews daily to promote and maintain a strong safety culture. This is not a remote or office-based role. The ideal candidate leads by example, collaborates closely with project leadership and customers, and is passionate about practical, solutions-focused safety.

  • Partner with the Project Leader to ensure work areas are safe for employees and customers

  • Serve as the go-to safety resource when questions arise in the field- Example: determining when to use yellow caution tape vs. red tape to barricade areas

  • Inspect all tools and equipment used by RIS employees to ensure proper functionality

  • Submit daily inspection and safety documentation

  • Communicate hazards, concerns, and corrective actions to the Director of Safety, Project Managers, and Customers

  • Assist with incident investigations and follow-up corrective actions

  • Be part of the solution — proactively help resolve safety issues, not just identify problems

  • Rigging training or certification

  • Rescue from Heights training or certification

  • Experience in construction, rack installation, or a similar industrial environment

  • Bilingual (Spanish/English) preferred, but not required

  • Strong leadership skills with a hands-on, field-driven approach

Ideal Candidate
  • Comfortable traveling and living where projects are located

  • Willing to work alongside crews, not just observe

  • Confident teaching, coaching, and developing others in the field

  • Approachable, collaborative, and respected by both crews and customers

  • Adaptable and flexible with changing job sites, schedules, and work environments
