Help shape a safer, smarter future with Dairyworks

We’re proud to feed New Zealand and beyond — and just as proud to look after the people who make it happen.
We’re looking for a Health, Safety & Wellbeing Business Partner who thrives in fast-paced FMCG environments, enjoys building strong relationships, and knows that real safety happens on the floor, not just on paper.

What you’ll be doing

• Support our "Safetyworks" strategy and improvement roadmap

• Coach and support leaders to truly own health, safety & wellbeing.

• Coach teams to use our systems with confidence.

• Lead and assist with incident investigations and risk assessments.

• Partner with operations to review hazards, critical risks, and control measures.

• Drive practical improvements that make work safer and more efficient.

What you’ll bring

• 1–3 years’ experience in a health & safety role (manufacturing or FMCG preferred).

• Working knowledge of the HSWA 2015 and related regulations.

• Strong communication and coaching skills — you can turn “compliance talk” into common sense.

• Confidence with systems, investigations (ICAM or similar), and risk management.

• Energy, curiosity, and the ability to adapt in a busy environment.

Why Dairyworks?

• A genuinely supportive team culture — we’ve got each other’s backs.

• A business that invests in people and welcomes new ideas.

• The chance to make a real impact in a growing NZ food manufacturer.

• Competitive salary and opportunities to grow your HSW career.

Haven't got it all?

We are looking for a great cultural fit as much as we are for the technical skills to support the business. So if you aren't sure, put your hat in the ring anyway!
