Lifecycle Hazard Mitigation: Apply Safety in Design (Safety in Design) principles and the Hierarchy of Controls to eliminate or substitute hazards at the design stage, prioritizing physical engineering solutions over administrative controls and personal protective equipment (PPE). Evaluate designs to ensure safety across all lifecycle phases: construction, installation, commissioning, operation, maintenance, and eventual demolition.
Hazard Identification & Workshops: Lead or actively participate in systematic, multidisciplinary hazard identification exercises. Facilitate collaborative sessions with architects, engineers, construction managers, maintenance technicians, and operational end-users to ensure designed systems are highly practical and error-proof.

Performance Monitoring & Analytics: Oversee Safety in Design performance monitoring, capturing project lessons to refine client design guides and safety standards for continuous improvement. Track and analyze injury, illness, and incident data to provide leadership and regional management with actionable guidance on compliance, trends, and improvement strategies.
Operational Leadership & Coordination: Establish work schedules and assign specific safety-related tasks to team members. Coordinate work efforts and impact the quality of both individual output and the wider team's performance, ensuring objectives are met within standardized procedures and established timelines.
Multi-disciplinary Knowledge Synthesis: Synthesize complex technical data and safety insights spanning multiple professional disciplines-such as mechanical/electrical engineering, occupational hygiene, and materials chemistry-to engineer cohesive, inherently safer facility solutions.
Risk Transfer & Safety Handover: Provide robust safety oversight during commissioning and handover processes. Ensure that critical risk control information developed during the design phase is successfully documented and transferred to operational end-users and facility maintenance teams.
RISE Values & Communication: Lead by example and consistently model professional behaviors aligned with CBRE RISE Values (Respect, Integrity, Service, Excellence). Translate complex technical HSE details and risk parameters into clear, straightforward communication for non-technical stakeholders and client teams in routine and challenging situations.

An equivalent blend of formal education and professional experience will be considered. Candidates must demonstrate 2-5 years of relevant experience. In lieu of a degree, a combination of experience and education will be considered.
