JOB DESCRIPTION
Everforth Apex Systems is seeking an experienced National EHS Manager to lead the Environmental, Health, and Safety program supporting our nationwide portfolio of hyperscale and enterprise data center operations. This role will serve as the senior safety leader for programs spanning data center deployments, rack landing and rack-and-stack activities, liquid cooling installations, structured cabling and fiber infrastructure, network operations, managed services, break/fix support, logistics, and other mission-critical technical services. This role requires the ability to represent the company with executive leadership, hyperscaler safety teams, regulators, and senior customer stakeholders during audits, incidents, and business reviews.
