I have 17 years of progressive experience in the construction industry, starting as an Assistant Superintendent for Richmond American Homes before joining the Walsh Group in 2007. Over the last four years, I’ve been in director and division-level HSE management roles with oversight of multi-million and even billion-dollar projects.In those instances where safety leadership was lacking, I dedicated myself to establishing the kind of programs and accountability systems that have resulted in >1,000 recordable incident free days with improved YoY training and compliance metrics. Having worked my way up from a Project Engineer, I understand safety with an insider’s point of view and strive to build a culture that respects the benefits of lower Incident rates and EMR. Because I understand what is occurring on jobsites both large and small, I can readily assess the risk potential of hazardous operations and keep everyone focused on incident prevention.Industry Training:United Rentals Train the Trainer for Confined Spaces and Excavations | Fall Protection TrainerHazwoper 40 | OSHA 510/500/502 | OSHA 30-Hour | CAT START Certified TrainerSilica Competent Person Train the Trainer | Advanced Rigger Training | First Aid/CPRCore Competencies:Accident Prevention & Investigation | Risk Assessment | Construction & Pre-Construction Management | Haz CommSubcontracting | Onsite Safety Audits | Emergency Action Planning | Process Scheduling | Contract NegotiationsStaff Training/Development | Compliance | Culture Building | Worker’s Compensation | Fall Protection | Silica SafetySelected Projects: $1.8 billion Crenshaw/LAX Metro Transit Corridor, Inglewood, CA $250 million Orange County Streetcar Construction Project, Santa Ana, CA $150 million T100-Tacoma Link Extension, Tacoma, WA $60 million Santa Rita Water Reclamation Facility Improvements, Durango, CO $23 million EPCOR White Tanks Water Treatment Plant 2019 Expansion & Process Upgrades, Surprise, AZI can be reached at briancgeist@gmail.com.
