- To support with HSE legal compliance and audits

- Standard daytime office hours, Monday-Thursday 8am-4:30pm, Friday 8am-1:30pm
- Initial travel required (up to 20% in first 3–4 months for training), then fully based onsite
If you are an experienced HSE professional who is motivated to contribute to site safety, support a strong safety culture, and drive continuous improvement, we would be pleased to hear from you for a confidential conversation.
