Position Overview Logan Steel is seeking a hands-on Shop Safety, Quality & Training Coordinator to work directly on our manufacturing and warehouse floor. This is not a desk-only position.

This position will work closely with Human Resources, department management, senior leadership, and our Safety Committee. Key Responsibilities Perform daily walkthroughs of manufacturing, warehouse, loading, and material-handling areas. Identify unsafe conditions and unsafe work practices before they result in an accident. Address immediate safety concerns and report significant issues to HR and management. Help ensure employees follow company safety policies, PPE requirements, and established procedures. Assist with OSHA-related compliance, incident and near-miss investigations, and corrective actions.

Help verify employees are following drawings, work instructions, inspection requirements, and established procedures. Assist with documenting nonconforming work, rework, scrap, and recurring quality issues. Work with supervisors and employees to identify root causes of recurring safety or quality problems.

Experience & Qualifications Hands-on experience in manufacturing, steel fabrication, metalworking, warehousing, construction, industrial safety, quality control, or a similar environment. Working knowledge of OSHA/general industry safety, lockout/tagout, machine guarding, PPE, forklift or overhead crane safety is strongly preferred.

A college degree is not required; practical shop-floor experience, judgment, communication skills, and follow-through are highly valued. The Person We're Looking For You should be comfortable walking into a busy shop, recognizing when something doesn't look right, asking questions, coaching employees, and following an issue through until it is corrected.
