SMS (Safety Management System) is a structured framework for managing safety risks — encompassing policies, procedures, responsibilities, and performance monitoring systems. The Safety Officer will be responsible for ensuring all activities comply with the organization’s SMS.
Are bilingual English and Arabic skills mandatory?
Yes. The employer has specifically stated that strong communication skills in both English and Arabic are required. The role involves working with Arabic-speaking teams, Saudi regulatory bodies, and international safety standards — making bilingual proficiency essential.
What is the salary for this role?
Based on market rates for Safety Officers with 3–5 years of experience and relevant certifications in Al Khobar, the expected range is SAR 6,000 – SAR 10,000 per month. Candidates holding CSP, CIH, or NEBOSH qualifications can expect offers toward the higher end.
