  • Full time
  • Closing on: Nov 29 2026

ASC is Australia’s submarine company. We built the Royal Australian Navy’s Collins Class submarines, sustain them, and are now delivering their Life of Type Extension to increase the boats’ service lives. We have also been selected by the Australian Government to sustain and jointly build the nation’s nuclear-powered submarines – the largest and most complex industrial undertaking in Australia’s history.

Our work is interesting and meaningful, contributing directly to Australia’s national security. We offer rewarding roles that provide the opportunity to grow your career, and the flexibility to balance life and work. A career at ASC is like no other, delivering a deeper purpose we can all be proud of.

 

About the Opportunity

Join ASC as a WHSE Consultation & Implementation Specialist and play a key role in driving workforce engagement, consultation, and safety improvement across the organisation. You'll lead meaningful consultation activities, support the successful implementation of WHSE initiatives, and help ensure our people are actively involved in shaping safer ways of working.

This is a full-time opportunity based at our Osborne site in Adelaide, SA or our Henderson site in Perth, WA.

 

What you’ll be doing

  • Lead and coordinate WHSE consultation activities across organisational changes, projects, and operational initiatives.
  • Partner with leaders, Health & Safety Representatives (HSRs), and committees to ensure effective worker engagement and participation.
  • Drive the implementation and embedding of WHSE programs, procedures, standards, and risk controls.
  • Develop and deliver WHSE communications, including safety alerts, bulletins, lessons learned, and awareness campaigns.
  • Analyse WHSE data, workforce feedback, and consultation outcomes to support continuous improvement and informed decision-making.

 

About you 

You're an experienced WHSE professional who knows how to bring people on the journey during periods of change. With strong consultation and stakeholder engagement skills, you can influence at all levels, facilitate productive discussions, and turn WHSE initiatives into practical outcomes that improve workplace safety and performance.

You’ll have:

  • Demonstrated experience leading workforce consultation and WHSE implementation activities.
  • Strong stakeholder engagement and relationship-building skills across diverse workgroups.
  • Excellent facilitation, communication, and influencing abilities.
  • Proven project coordination experience, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deliver outcomes.
  • Sound knowledge of WHS legislation, risk management principles, data analysis, and continuous improvement practices.

 

Eligibility

This role requires a current National Police Clearance and an Australian Defence Security Clearance. Your eligibility for this role is dependent on you obtaining and maintaining such clearance.

Whilst ASC will accept all applications for this role, as this role requires an ability to access protected US defence technology, applicants holding nationality of certain foreign countries will not be eligible.

 

Benefits

  • Flexibility over how, when and where you work for the best work/life balance.
  • Up to 10 days additional leave every year so you can rest and recharge.
  • Generous parental leave so you can give your family the focus it deserves.
  • Subsidised childcare to ease the financial pressure on your family.
  • Health and wellbeing initiatives so you can perform at your best at work.
  • Professional development opportunities to advance your career.
  • Discounts and exclusive offers from leading Australian brands to help you save.
