Leading a dedicated HSE team, you’ll serve as a trusted advisor on high-level safety and environmental issues. In this position, you will also provide regular insights and reports on HSE performance metrics to support business objectives.

Key Responsibilities:

• Take ownership of building and sustaining a forward-looking HSE culture by guiding all health, safety, and environmental efforts and securing compliance and safety for all involved parties. This involves designing, executing, and refining robust HSE strategies and operational frameworks. • Act as a trusted advisor to senior leadership, challenging and inspiring them to embed safety deeply into the organizational mindset. • Offer high-level HSE expertise to ensure full legal, regulatory, and contractual compliance, serving as the main point of contact for external agencies, regulators, and partners, while supporting internal teams with strategic counsel. • Oversee complex HSE analyses and risk management efforts by initiating detailed audits and evaluations, supporting the team in identifying and applying effective controls, and confirming implementation results. • Promote a culture of continuous improvement in HSE performance by steering improvement initiatives, monitoring key safety indicators, and rolling out data-driven enhancements organization-wide. • Manage the response to major incidents, ensuring thorough investigations, in-depth root cause analysis, and timely documentation and reporting. • Ensure accurate and up-to-date management of essential HSE documentation, including registers related to health issues, environmental concerns, and hazardous materials. • Lead and grow the HSE team by mentoring and supporting Officers and Assistants, balancing workloads, and contributing to long-term planning to align HSE efforts with broader business goals.
