We are also building new and improved rapid transit, including GO Expansion, Light Rail Transit routes, and major expansions to Toronto’s subway system, to get people where they need to go, better, faster and easier. Metrolinx is an agency of the Government of Ontario.

At Metrolinx, equity, diversity and inclusion are essential to living our values of serving with passion, thinking forward and playing as a team.

Our Engineering and Safety Division is currently looking for a Safety Risk Specialist. This role is crucial for managing the organization's safety risks to ensure the protection of employees, the public, passengers, and contractors. The specialist will enhance our ability to consistently identify risks and implement effective mitigation strategies, thereby improving safety and operational efficiency.

The Safety Risk Specialist tracks the performance of safety action over time, maintains a record of intervention versus outcome for each safety risk, and over time, generates a register of actions that are most likely to produce value to prevent or mitigate a specific safety risk or category of safety events. By delivering on the Safety Risk Management Program, the Safety Risk Specialist directly contributes to the achievement of the Metrolinx corporate safety strategic goals and objectives.

What will I be doing?

Execute elements of the safety risk management framework and strategy to address safety risks within operations and maintenance, engineering project deviations, and incident investigations. In doing so, ensuring that the safety risk management framework is understood and applied consistently across all business units in order to enhance operational safety at Metrolinx.
Collaborate with business units and external stakeholders in the application of safety risk management processes, standards, systems, and procedures in the conduct of safety risk assessments compliant with the Metrolinx Risk Management Maturity Model.
Conduct and/or guide the conduct of quantitative and qualitative analysis of safety risks within operational programs in order to identify high priority safety risks.
Contribute to the development of Safety Risk models using historical data and risk analysis results to support data-driven decision-making.
Analyze safety data to categorize, estimate, and prioritize the safety risks which can affect an operational program, including safety risks identified during an incident investigation.
Develop and maintain the Safety Risk Scorecard that clearly defines, quantifies and trends higher priority risk to produce actionable insight for targeted stakeholders and decision-makers, including business units and organizational leadership.
Deliver safety risk management guidance, training, and advice to business units and external stakeholders in order to build safety risk awareness and to ensure consistent due diligence with respect to safety within Metrolinx.
Facilitate safety workshops with Metrolinx business units to collect safety data associated with potential safety risks within operational programs and engineering project deviations to ensure the safety risks are identified and appropriately addressed.
Recommend ways to maximize safety awareness and promote positive safety culture within the business units.
Support the continuous improvement of safety at Metrolinx through the application of standardized safety risk assessment and risk control practices, consistent with Metrolinx Enterprise Risk Management.
Collaborates with business units and external stakeholders with respect to enterprise-wide safety risk management.

What Skills and Qualifications Do I Need?

Completion of a degree in Risk Management, Engineering, Science, Business Administration, Analytics, Statistics, or a related discipline – or a combination of education, training and experience deemed equivalent.
Demonstrated experience in safety risk management, safety assessments and/or safety investigations. Experience with applying ISO 31000 for risk management would be an asset.
Proficiency in computer applications, including MS Office (e.g. Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
Experience with system and databases that support the collection, analysis, and reporting of risk information.
Analytical and problem-solving skills to analyze problems, detect root causes, and resolve issues.
Effective project management skills to support the delivery of inter-dependent projects with high complexity, risk, and organizational impact.
Certified Analytics Professional (CAP), Certified Project Manager (CPM) and/or Canadian Risk Management (CRM) designation would be an asset.
Effective oral communication, presentation and consultation skills to provide expertise/advice to colleagues and management.
Effective written communication skills to provide internal and external reports, briefings and memoranda.
Active listening skills in order to understand the full extent of issues, concentration to analyze issues, and resolve issues.
Agile and demonstrated flexibility to multitask and deal with interruptions for urgent requests for information.
Experience with leading and managing projects, including monitoring project activities for adherence to timelines and expected project performance results.
