Talks with Sean Brown, founder of SMB Safety

With over 25 years in the building and construction industry, as well as experience in the Water, Telecommunications and Civil industries, I consider “Safety First Always! my motto.

Over the years I had worked with many different PCBU’s as a full-time safety officer, advisor and systems manager. One of the biggest conversation points revolved around “spreading safety resources across a number of projects.” And, also reducing the time and complexities around safety training and WHS compliance.

As a holistic safety practitioner, my aim was to close these gaps by constructing simple and fast safety solutions that could “fit” across multiple projects. And that’s what we’ll help you do at SMB Safety.

Our proven systems to make a site “safer, better- and faster” has enabled us to partner with leading construction companies across Australia that trust our expertise and care to help them achieve their safety goals, and most importantly- dramatically reduce the risks and costs of “not playing it safe”.

Proudly a partner of choice for leaders in the industry

Sean is, without doubt, the most experienced and knowledgeable WHS consultant I have met in the past 10 years. Sean’s technical understanding combined with his reputable market expertise and in-depth legal knowledge makes him undoubtedly the best choice of consultant for any business that places safety as a top priority.

Sean Brown is a enthusiastic, respectful and honest safety advisor. I have worked with him on a variety of projects and he has always been constructive and proactive with his approach to safety. He takes safety extremely seriously and conducts himself as a professional, never compromising himself. I hopefully will have the pleasure to work with him again in the future.

I worked with Sean for more than a year, within a major rail infrastructure alliance, primarily updating and implementing the quality management systems, with input as required into the safety and environment systems as well. The work also entailed conducting site inspections, developing training and briefing materials, and collating test and inspection documentation into the final handover reports to clients. I was impressed with Sean’s focus and work ethos, dealing with disparate groups in sometimes difficult situations and managing to provide the outcomes required for practical project lot completions.

Sean is a professional for delivering safety and risk management in projects. I should add he is nice and has a positive attitude with strong skills.

I have worked with Sean for over 6 years and during that time he has consistently demonstrated a professional attitude to WHS. I recommended him to a few of my clients who still retain his services as needed. Always a pleasure to work with Sean, and I recommend him for his skills, knowledge and communication skills.

Fastform Group Australia Pty Ltd has employed the services of Sean as a sole trader and now as SMB Safety Pty Ltd since 2015. He came to us via word of mouth and has demonstrated himself to be very professional and reliable since 2015. He has progressed our company in a direction of safety in a very short period. I would highly recommend SMB Safety Pty Ltd’s services to any prospective client.

Sean is a dedicated safety professional with a passion for people. I have always found him knowledgeable in every field of operational and strategic safety. He is always ready to mentor, but is also keen to listen and achieve outcomes that are readily accepted. He manages from a style that quickly gains respect from his peers and senior managers and brings a safety culture to his position that is quickly adopted by those around him. I believe that Sean will succeed in whatever role he wishes to fulfill.
