The Regional Health & Safety Advisor supports Federal Express operations across Australia by promoting safe working practices, reducing workplace risks and ensuring compliance with Australian health and safety legislation. Requirements typically include relevant experience in occupational health and safety, risk assessment, incident investigation, safety audits, training and contractor management. A qualification in workplace health and safety, such as a Certificate IV or higher, is generally expected, along with knowledge of WHS regulations and strong communication skills. The successful candidate should be comfortable visiting operational sites, working with managers and employees, analysing safety data and influencing improvement without direct authority. A current driver’s licence, practical problem-solving ability and willingness to travel regionally are likely required.

In the Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa region, FedEx connects major cities and commercial centres through international express transportation and local delivery operations. Its Australian business includes sorting facilities, depots, couriers, freight services and corporate support functions.

Australia offers opportunities in logistics, transport, aviation, healthcare, construction, technology, engineering, mining and professional services. Major employment hubs include Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide, while regional areas may offer roles with less competition and relocation incentives. Australian workplace culture is generally practical, direct, collaborative and focused on safety, fairness and work-life balance. Lifestyle varies from busy city living to coastal, rural and outdoor environments, with beaches, national parks and diverse food and cultural communities. Living costs are high in Sydney and Melbourne, particularly for housing, while other cities can be more manageable. Overseas applicants need a suitable visa, such as an employer-sponsored Skills in Demand visa, skilled migration visa or working holiday visa where eligible. Before relocating, confirm sponsorship, occupational eligibility, qualifications, police checks, health requirements, tax arrangements and professional recognition. A driving licence may be important for regional safety and operational roles.
