In a nutshell We are looking for a Safety Capability Lead to build our safety framework from the ground up. This is not a role for a policy-checker; it is for an architect who views safety as an integral part of operational excellence. You will define the strategy, set the standards, and ensure that safety is embedded into every workflow across our Fulfillment Centers, Distribution Hubs, and Fleet.

You start with a blank sheet and the responsibility to create a program that scales.

What You’Ll Do

Design the framework: Take full ownership of building Picnic’s safety capability. You will define the standards, processes, and tools from scratch. Integrate operations: Ensure safety is not a separate layer but an integrated part of how we work.

You will bridge the gap between site-level execution and central strategy. Develop the program: Create the training modules, hardware standards, and operational protocols that enable leads in our Fulfillment Centers, Hubs, and Fleet to manage their own safety performance. Define metrics: Establish clear KPIs and reporting structures to measure safety performance and drive continuous improvement.

Lead Stakeholders: Navigate different parts of the business to gain support for your plans, ensuring safety initiatives align with operational reality and broader business goals. Mitigate risk: Identify systemic operational risks and implement scalable technical and procedural solutions to eliminate them. Solve for scale: Implement scalable solutions that remain effective as our logistics network and fleet operations evolve, focusing on sustainable operational excellence.

About you Master’s degree in a relevant technical or operational field 5-8 years of experience in an operational safety environment.
