About the role

We are looking for a Manager, Health and Safety to join our team in Bella Vista, Sydney.

At Resmed, we are not just manufacturing world-class products – we are transforming lives. Our Sydney Manufacturing site plays a critical role in delivering high-quality medical devices that help millions of people sleep better, breathe better, and live healthier lives.

We are looking for a Manager, Health & Safety to lead and continuously evolve our safety culture across the site. This is a highly visible leadership role where you will partner with cross-functional teams to embed safety into daily operations, ensuring compliance, reducing risk, and empowering leaders and teams to take ownership of safe execution.

Let’s talk about the role

As our Health & Safety Manager, you will lead the site OH&S operating system, ensuring it is robust, compliant, and continuously improving.

You will act as a trusted advisor to site leadership, driving a “safety-first” culture and supporting teams across manufacturing, engineering, warehouse, and corporate functions to manage risks effectively.

This role is both strategic and hands-on, requiring a strong presence on the shop floor, coaching leaders, and ensuring safety is embedded into every process.

Let’s talk about Responsibilities

Safety governance & compliance

Lead and maintain the site’s OH&S management system in line with Australian and NSW legislation and Resmed global standards
Partner with leadership to ensure due diligence and regulatory compliance (including SafeWork NSW engagement)
Ensure audits, inspections, and reporting frameworks are effective and transparent

Risk management & incident prevention

Drive hazard identification, risk assessments, and implementation of effective controls across site operations
Lead incident investigations, ensuring strong root cause analysis and sustainable corrective actions
Partner closely with Engineering, Production, and NPI teams to embed safety-by-design

Safety culture, training & leadership

Champion a proactive safety culture through coaching, training, and leadership engagement
Embed safety routines and standard work across daily operations (e.g., shift start, Gemba, audits)
Develop and maintain training frameworks and safety competencies across the site

Ergonomics, injury management & return to work

Lead ergonomic risk reduction initiatives and injury prevention strategies
Manage early intervention and return-to-work processes in collaboration with internal and external stakeholders
Provide data-driven insights on injury trends and improvement opportunities

Contractor, change & emergency management

Ensure contractor compliance with site safety requirements and standards
Embed safety into change management, capital projects, and new product introduction
Lead emergency preparedness, response planning, and site drills

Let’s talk about Qualifications and Experience

Required:

Degree or equivalent experience in Occupational Health & Safety, Engineering, Ergonomics, or related field
Approximately 5+ years of solid experience in an OH&S role within manufacturing, warehouse, or regulated environments (medical device, pharma, FMCG)
Strong knowledge of Australian / NSW OH&S legislation and regulatory requirements
Proven experience in risk management, incident investigation, and safety systems
Strong influencing skills with the ability to coach leaders and engage frontline teams
Excellent communication, analytical, and problem-solving capabilities

Preferred:

ISO 45001 audit experience or certification
Return to Work Coordinator training (or willingness to obtain)
Experience in regulated manufacturing or medical device environments
Expertise in ergonomics, manual task assessment, or injury prevention

Let’s talk about what success looks like

A visible and embedded safety-first culture across leadership and frontline teams
Strong compliance with OH&S standards and audit readiness
Reduction in incidents, hazards, and high-risk exposures
Effective leadership ownership of safe execution, with OH&S acting as an enabler and coach
