At Residential Buildings Services Ltd (RBS), we free up residential builders to build better businesses and better lives. We partner with residential building companies throughout New Zealand to reduce complexity, compliance burden, fragmented processes and pressure on in-house teams by providing proven, specialist building services across health and safety, estimation, draughting and consenting, HR and accounting, so our clients can focus on building quality homes, happy customers, and building stronger businesses.
We are now looking for an experienced Health & Safety Coordinator to support the delivery, upkeep and continuous improvement of our H&S systems. This role would suit someone who is confident with administration, enjoys working with people, and has a genuine interest in supporting safe and compliant workplaces.
About the role
Working closely with the Health & Safety Manager, you will help coordinate H&S documentation, registers, reporting, contractor information and client compliance requirements. You will be involved in maintaining systems such as Site Connect and SiteWise records, following up contractor information, preparing monthly reports, assisting with incident administration and supporting clients with practical H&S queries.
This is a varied role where accuracy, initiative, communication and follow-through are key. You will need to be comfortable managing multiple priorities, keeping information up to date and escalating technical or higher-risk matters when required.
Key responsibilities include:
Coordinating Health & Safety records, forms, registers, reports and supporting documentation
Maintaining contractor, Site Connect, SiteWise and compliance records
Preparing accurate monthly client H&S reports
Assisting with incident investigation administration, action tracking and audit registers
Reviewing and updating H&S templates, procedures and client materials
Providing practical support to clients, employees and contractors using H&S systems and applications
About you
You may already be working as a Health & Safety Coordinator, H&S Administrator or in a similar compliance-focused role. Construction or trade-based industry experience would be an advantage, but more important is your ability to stay organised, communicate well and maintain accurate records.

Experience in Health & Safety coordination, administration, compliance or a similar role
Good knowledge of New Zealand workplace health and safety requirements, including the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015
Strong attention to detail and confidence maintaining accurate records and documentation
Excellent communication and relationship management skills
Confidence using Microsoft Office and online systems or compliance platforms
A practical, client-focused approach and the ability to manage deadlines
Why join us?
You will be part of a supportive, practical and client-focused team where your contribution will help businesses maintain safe, compliant and well-organised workplaces.
