We have an exciting opportunity for a hands-on Compliance Coordinator to join our high-performing team in Auckland.
About the role
This is not your average support role.
You’ll be the operational backbone across three dynamic and diverse sites, each playing a critical role in our sustainability mission:
You’ll work closely with site managers and operational teams to ensure smooth day-to-day operations, compliance, reporting, and continuous improvement initiatives.
You will play a key role in driving compliance with HSEQ systems, improving risk management practices, and contributing to a culture of continuous improvement and sustainability.
Key Responsibilities
This role combines field-level advisory support with coordination of key compliance activities to ensure we meet internal standards, legislative obligations, and customer expectations.
Our compliance coordinator will:
Provide administrative, operational, and logistical support across all three sites, including reporting, data entry, procurement, contractor coordination, and documentation for compliance and performance tracking.
Support HSEQ initiatives by assisting with health & safety programs, audits, inspections, risk assessments, incident investigations, and ensuring corrective actions and documentation (SOPs, JSEAs, hazardous substances registers, etc.) are maintained.
Guide managers and staff on compliance with health, safety, environmental, and quality legislation and the company’s HSEQ Management System, while coordinating and delivering site-based training, toolbox talks, and committee meetings.
Liaise with internal teams, external stakeholders, regulatory bodies, and third-party auditors, and act as the primary contact for incident management and injury case handling.
Contribute to continuous improvement projects, support implementation of emergency and business continuity plans, and promote sustainability initiatives aligned with circular economy and environmental goals.
What is in it for me?
We offer a very competitive package, and opportunities to further expand your career with New Zealand’s largest waste collection company.
You will also be part of a great team committed to providing a comprehensive one-stop service to meet a broad range of facility, waste, recycling and industrial needs of our clients.
