Head - Safety, Health & Environment (SHE)

About the Role :

As the Head of Safety, Health, and Environment (SHE), you will be a strategic leader responsible for shaping and driving our safety culture across multiple sites. You will be instrumental in our mission to achieve "Goal Zero"—a state of continuous improvement where we proactively eliminate risks and ensure the highest standards of safety and environmental stewardship. This is a critical leadership role that requires a blend of technical expertise, strategic foresight, and the ability to influence and inspire at all levels.

Key responsibilities

• Strategy and governance : Build and deliver the site SHE strategy, align local SOPs with corporate standards, and uphold certified management systems and site programs that demonstrably reduce risk and incidents.
• Regulatory compliance and audits : Ensure full compliance with statutory, customer, and corporate requirements; lead regulatory engagements (e.g., PCB, PESO), customer / third-party audits, and effective CAPA management to closure.
• Risk management and safe systems : Institutionalize JSA for high-risk tasks, strengthen work permits and LOTO, promote near-miss reporting, and conduct toolbox talks and inspections to prevent incidents.
• Culture and behavior-based safety : Champion behavior-based safety and visible leadership; use observations and feedback to reinforce safe behaviors and improve conditions—not just behaviors—within a comprehensive safety program.
• Emergency preparedness and incident management : Maintain Emergency Preparedness & Response plans; lead incident investigations and drive timely, effective corrective and preventive actions (CAPA).
• Environmental stewardship : Oversee wastewater and emissions monitoring, hazardous waste segregation / storage / disposal, and compliance with PCB consents and agreements; drive waste and resource reduction programs.
• Training and competence : Establish TNI / TNA and calendars; deliver induction and role-specific training, toolbox talks, and competency assessments; measure effectiveness and act on feedback.
• Performance, reporting, and reviews : Lead BU APEX reviews, track leading / lagging indicators, publish dashboards, and ensure sustained improvement of SHE outcomes and culture.
• Projects and change : Partner with Engineering and Operations on construction, commissioning, and change control (MOC), ensuring inherent safety and regulatory compliance throughout the lifecycle.
• Stakeholder management : Liaise with regulators, customers, auditors, vendors, and external partners for compliance, waste treatment, and technical support; coordinate with HR, Admin, Facilities, Security, QA, and Operations.
