Safety Engineer (m/f/d)

As a safety engineer, you don't want to just manage, but shape decisions? Then you're in the right place with us.

As an external service provider, we support production facilities in occupational safety, workplace safety, and fire protection. We are growing faster than our team can take on new clients. That's why we are looking for a Safety Engineer for our Munich location who will independently manage facilities and establish occupational safety where it has previously only been a secondary concern.

What awaits you here

You are not the staff department at the end of a long approval chain. You are the specialist who asks management before a new hall is set up or a machine is purchased. You manage several facilities in parallel, know their equipment, processes, and risks, and set your own priorities. You see the direct results of your work: fewer accidents, passed inspections, and customers who recommend you.

Your tasks

• You manage your client facilities as an external safety specialist according to DGUV Regulation 2 and plan your assignments yourself: week, route, and focus areas.

• You assess workplaces, machines, and equipment from a safety perspective, create risk assessments, and derive measures that are actually implemented.

• You advise management on new and modified work areas, ensuring safety is considered from the outset.

• You are responsible for operational fire protection: fire protection regulations, escape and rescue route plans, evacuation drills, and training of fire protection and evacuation assistants.

• You moderate ASA (Arbeitsstätten-Ausschuss) meetings, analyze accidents and near-misses, and are the point of contact for management, works council, and the employers' liability insurance association.

• You conduct training sessions that leave a lasting impression and document in a way that your clients can see and understand their progress.

What you bring with you

• Completed safety specialist (Sifa) training based on an engineering, technician, or master craftsman qualification.

• At least two years of practical experience in occupational safety, ideally in industry or as an external safety specialist.

• Proficient knowledge of ArbSchG (Occupational Safety and Health Act), BetrSichV (Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health), ArbStättV/ASR (Ordinance on Workplaces/Technical Rules for Workplaces), and the DGUV (German Social Accident Insurance) regulations, from practical experience and not just from textbooks.

• Experience in fire protection is a plus. You can obtain the qualification as a Fire Protection Officer at our expense within the first year.

• You explain technical risks in a way that both warehouse managers and managing directors can act, and you remain friendly but firm when a defect is safety-critical.

• German language skills at C1 level and a Class B driver's license.

What you get

• Very good annual salary, permanent employment contract.

• Company car (also for private use)

• Direct influence on the reality in the facilities, from day 1, with a mentor from the team for the first 6 months.

• Scope for design: We are growing. Those who perform well here help build structures and receive more responsibility; up to leading their own team.

• Company-sponsored further training of your choice: BSB (Betriebssicherheitsverordnung) courses, BG (Berufsgenossenschaft) training, environmental or hazardous substances qualifications are provided by us.

• Flexible working hours with flextime, home office, company pension scheme, company doctor, free parking, employee discounts, and much more.

How to proceed

Send us your CV. We do not need a cover letter. This will be followed by a short phone call, a technical interview via video with someone who does the job themselves, an on-site meeting, and half a day at a client's site.
