This is not that. At Columbia Safety Services, safety is about protecting people, building trust, and creating a culture where every employee goes home in better condition than when they arrived. We are looking for someone to help build that culture from the ground up across multiple growing fire protection companies. This is a field-first leadership role. You will spend most of your time on jobsites alongside our crews, not behind a desk. You will mentor technicians and fitters, build relationships, lead training, improve systems, investigate incidents, support claims management, and help create a safety culture people actually buy into. You are not a safety cop. If your approach to safety is walking around trying to catch people doing something wrong, this is not the right fit. If your approach is building credibility, respect, accountability, and trust with field employees while still holding a high standard, keep reading.
