About Safety Development Group

Safety Development Group (SDG) is a growing national safety management and consulting firm supporting large-scale industrial and warehouse construction projects, including major Amazon retrofit and expansion programs.

We provide Site Safety & Health Officers (SSHOs), safety program management, audit oversight, and executive-level compliance strategy for high-profile contractors across the U.S.

We are seeking a Director of Safety to provide multi-site leadership and help scale our national safety operations.

Position Overview

The Director of Safety will provide strategic oversight across multiple active construction projects nationwide. This is a remote-based leadership role requiring travel approximately 10–15 days per month.

When not traveling, this position operates with a high level of autonomy. The Director will manage their own schedule and workflow to ensure project oversight, compliance standards, and field team support are consistently executed.

This is a results-driven leadership role — autonomy with accountability.

Key Responsibilities

• Oversee multiple Site Safety & Health Officers across active projects
• Ensure compliance with OSHA (29 CFR 1926) and client-specific standards (including Amazon programs)
• Conduct executive-level safety reviews with clients
• Support project mobilizations and safety planning
• Review incident investigations and corrective actions
• Mentor and develop field safety personnel
• Standardize reporting and internal safety systems
• Support audit preparation and compliance submissions (BOLT, Avetta, ISN, etc.)
• Collaborate with leadership to protect margin and operational efficiency

Required Qualifications

Candidates must meet at least one of the following:

• OSHA 500 (Construction Outreach Trainer)
• BCSP Certification (CHST, STSC, or CSP)
• Bachelor’s Degree in Safety, Occupational Health, or related field with GSP designation

Additionally:

• 7+ years construction safety experience
• 3+ years in leadership or multi-site oversight
• Strong knowledge of OSHA Construction Standards (29 CFR 1926)
• Experience in industrial / warehouse / large-scale retrofit environments
• Amazon construction safety familiarity strongly preferred
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to travel nationally 10–15 days per month

Schedule & Flexibility

• Travel required approximately 10–15 days per month (travel expenses covered)
• Remote when not traveling
• Self-managed schedule outside of required meetings and travel
• Performance-based expectations

This role is ideal for a disciplined professional who values independence and leadership responsibility.

Compensation & Benefits

• $90,000 – $110,000 annual salary (based on experience)
• Travel expenses covered
• Remote flexibility
• Leadership growth opportunity
• National project exposure

Why Join SDG?

We are building a national safety management platform — not just staffing positions.

If you want executive-level impact, autonomy, and the opportunity to influence safety culture across multiple projects, this role offers that platform.
