How do I get an entry level regional hse manager job?
Start by targeting employers who explicitly list 0 to 2 years of experience in their postings. A degree in occupational health, environmental science, or a related field gives you a foundation, but internships, OSHA 30-hour certification, and any hands-on safety project work give you a real edge. Tailor your resume to show specific hazard assessments or compliance tasks you have handled, even from coursework or volunteer roles.

Companies hiring entry level regional hse managers right now include Sundt Construction, Drake, and Tenaris, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026.

A posting is new-grad friendly when it welcomes candidates with zero to two years of experience, accepts internship or co-op experience in place of full-time work history, or lists a relevant degree and industry certifications as the main qualifications rather than years on the job.

Entry Level regional hse manager roles concentrate in Construction & Real Estate, Energy, and Education, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026.
