Health & Safety Specialist

Company: Bolt

Contract type: Full-time

Required qualification: Bachelor's degree (Bac+3/Bac+4), Professional certificate

Field: Environment, Health and Safety

About the role

We are looking for a Health & Safety Specialist to ensure OHS (Occupational Health and Safety) compliance across Bolt's African markets and a set of designated satellite countries. You will be the regional expert: conducting audits, transforming safety data into decisions, managing external partners, and ensuring every Bolt team is equipped to stay safe.

This is a high-responsibility role. You will work closely with Operations, People, Hardware Engineering teams, and senior management, and you will lead global safety training and awareness campaigns in addition to your regional responsibilities.

Key responsibilities

  • Ensure compliance with Bolt's legal OHS obligations in African markets, including risk assessments, mandatory training, and statutory documentation.

  • Conduct regular audits in main and satellite markets; identify gaps and drive corrective actions to closure.

  • Set up and oversee HSE committees in all markets where local law requires it.

  • Manage the H&S data dashboard: collect, analyze, and present quarterly performance data to management.

  • Develop, lead, and measure global OHS training and awareness campaigns.

  • Support satellite market teams with compliance guidance, and manage external H&S consultants to ensure they fulfill their obligations.

  • Lead incident or crisis investigations, and clearly communicate findings to relevant stakeholders.

  • Contribute to the global SOP review cycle, ensuring safety procedures remain up-to-date and consistent.

Candidate profile

  • You hold a degree in Occupational Health and Safety, Environment, Health and Safety, Engineering, Risk Management, Compliance, Industrial Hygiene, or a related field.

  • You possess a recognized professional qualification such as NEBOSH, ISO 45001 auditor certification, or equivalent.

  • You have significant experience in OHS, including hands-on compliance work in at least one specific market.

  • You have a proven track record in audits, documentation management, and delivering safety training or communication campaigns.

  • You are data-savvy: you can build or maintain a dashboard, identify trends, and explain what the numbers mean to a non-technical audience.

  • You communicate fluently in English, whether writing a safety briefing or presenting results to management.

  • You have experience managing or coordinating external safety consultants.

  • Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
  • Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
  • Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
  • Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
  • Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
  • A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
