• The voice of safety from field crews to the corporate level.
• Invested in people over process
  
  

Your Role in Building a Safer Wiginton

• Lead safety strategy across 11 branches in FL, GA & NC
• Design and implement systems, training, and protocols
• Be a visible presence through jobsite audits and coaching
• Partner with leadership, field teams, insurance, and vendors
• Support workers’ comp, wellness, and continuous improvement
• Travel ~50%, based out of Sanford, FL HQ
  
  

Job Requirements

• 2–5 years of safety leadership or corporate training experience
• Strong communication, follow-through, and independence
• Valid driver’s license & ability to travel
• Intermediate Microsoft Office skills
  
  

Preferred

• Multi-site safety program experience
• CPR/First Aid or Fall Protection Instructor certifications
• Bachelor's in occupational safety
  
  

Why Wiginton? We’re a 100% employee-owned company with over 500 co-owners. That means everyone has skin in the game, and we take that seriously. Our average employee stays more than 10 years because we build careers, not just jobs. Safety isn’t a box we check; it’s a value we live.
