About Us

Our mission is to strive to make safety accessible and easier for all people, no matter their expertise. Yep, we’re those guys, we work hard to ensure mums, dads, brothers, sisters and (big) children arrive home from work daily, so they can live life to the fullest.

To support this mission, we started Action OHS Consulting and then realised that we could empower businesses to manage safety independently, if they had technology that was built to suit them. That’s why we built Safety Champion, which today, co-exists side by side with Action OHS Consulting as sister companies. Collectively, both businesses employ 40 employees, with double digit growth year on year.

With our team continuing to grow, we’re looking for a OHS Consultant who is motivated to support us in building our practice in Victoria. We are setting our team up for success as we continue to evolve We want you to work closely with our clients and take pride in supporting them to solve OHS problems in a practical, approachable and efficient way.

Whether you're making a move from another consulting role or a residential safety role, you'll be supported and encouraged by our amazing national team of SME's. There's no end to the collaboration and knowledge sharing you'll gain by working with a team of likeminded humans.
