Workplace Emergency Management is growing & we are looking for dedicated, enthusiastic, and motivated people committed to grow their own knowledge and skills as well as help the company to grow with them.

We have a new full-time position for a Workplace Emergency Trainer/Consultant based in Melbourne VIC.

At WEM we are committed to building a workforce that reflects the diverse communities in which we live and work.

The ideal applicant will have a genuine, passionate desire for safety in the workplace, a positive attitude, be motivated and committed to grow their own knowledge and skills as well as help the company to grow with them.

If you can be informative, fun, confident, knowledgeable and deliver our training in an entertaining and captivating manner that will be memorable for our clients, we want to hear from you.

We offer variety in your work week. A typical week could include Emergency response training, observing evacuation exercises, site attendances to develop emergency plans & evacuation diagrams or facilitating planning meetings for organisations. We also understand that some of these tasks may be new to you and to assist your onboarding, we have a very responsive & experienced team who can help you achieve these skills.

With a wide client base, training is also carried out in both regional areas & interstate. Typically, working away from home is collated into a week each month, which is allocated in consultation with you. As they say, travel broadens the mind & when working away from home you will gain local knowledge & be able to share it with other communities. We know that emergency response isn’t a one size fits all.

Supported by a friendly & helpful back of house team, you will be respected in return and given the responsibility to take ownership of your own tasks, while offering job satisfaction and keeping our clients happy by meeting their specific needs.
