Safety Coordinator – Mission‑Critical Data Center Project (Milwaukee, WI)

Join one of the largest mechanical contractors in the U.S. and elevate your safety career on a high‑visibility data center project.

If you’ve spent the last couple of years building your foundation in construction safety and you’re ready for a role where your work truly matters, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for. Our client—an industry‑leading mechanical contractor with a national footprint—Progressive Safety is seeking to hire Safety Coordinators who wants to grow, take ownership, and help drive a world‑class safety culture on a major mission‑critical project near Milwaukee.

This isn’t a clipboard‑and‑checklist job. It’s hands‑on, field‑focused, and central to keeping a complex, fast‑paced project running safely and efficiently.


What You’ll Do

  • Take the lead on daily site safety tours and inspections, ensuring compliance with OSHA and company standards.
  • Identify hazards, document findings, and work with field leadership to implement corrective actions.
  • Support the Safety Manager in rolling out safety programs, training, and initiatives that keep crews engaged and informed.
  • Review daily JHAs and address gaps before work begins.
  • Maintain all required safety documentation, including incident reports, inspection logs, and training records.
  • Participate in incident investigations, root‑cause analysis, and follow‑up actions.
  • Deliver new‑hire safety orientations and assist with ongoing employee training.
  • Serve as an on‑site resource for emergency response and day‑to‑day safety questions.

You’ll be a visible, trusted partner in the field—someone the crews know, respect, and rely on.


What You Bring

  • 2 years of construction safety experience (mechanical, industrial, or mission‑critical experience is a plus).
  • OSHA 10/30 required;
  • CPR/First Aid preferred.
  • Hazwoper 40, OSHA 500, CHST
  • GSP/ASP are strong differentiators.
  • Working knowledge of OSHA regulations and safety management systems.
  • Strong communication skills—you know how to connect with craft workers, foremen, and project leadership.
  • Solid problem‑solving instincts and the confidence to speak up when something isn’t right.
  • Ability to stay organized in a fast‑moving environment and keep documentation tight.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and comfort accessing OSHA resources online.


Why This Role Stands Out

  • You’ll gain experience on a mission‑critical data center project, one of the most sought‑after sectors in construction safety.
  • You’ll work closely with an experienced Safety Manager who will help you grow your technical and leadership skills.
  • You’ll have real influence—your voice will matter, and your work will directly impact the safety of hundreds of workers.


If you’re ready to take the next step in your safety career and want to be part of a team that values professionalism, accountability, and continuous improvement, this is your chance.
