Role Overview The Process Safety Manager will lead the development and implementation of process safety systems in a battery recycling facility. This role ensures safe handling of lithium-ion and other battery chemistries, mitigates risks of fire, explosion, and chemical exposure, and drives compliance with environmental and occupational safety regulations. The manager will be a key partner in protecting employees, the community, and the environment while supporting sustainable recycling operations. Key Responsibilities • Process Safety Leadership • Establish and maintain process safety management (PSM) programs tailored to battery recycling operations. • Promote a proactive safety culture across plant operations, engineering, and maintenance teams. • Hazard Identification & Risk Management • Conduct hazard analyses (HAZOP, LOPA, FMEA) for processes involving battery dismantling, shredding, and chemical recovery. • Assess risks related to thermal runaway, fire, toxic gas release, and chemical spills. • Implement safeguards for handling flammable electrolytes, heavy metals, and corrosive materials. • Compliance & Regulatory Oversight • Ensure compliance with OSHA PSM, EPA RMP, NFPA fire codes, and local environmental regulations. • Maintain documentation for audits, inspections, and permitting requirements. • Incident Investigation & Emergency Preparedness • Lead root cause analyses of process incidents (e.g., fires, chemical releases). • Develop and test emergency response plans for battery-related hazards. • Coordinate with local fire departments and environmental agencies. • Training & Awareness • Train employees on safe handling of lithium-ion batteries, chemical hazards, and emergency response. • Build awareness of evolving industry standards and best practices. • Continuous Improvement • Monitor safety KPIs (incident rates, near misses, audit findings). • Drive improvements in facility design, ventilation systems, fire suppression, and PPE usage. • Stay current with innovations in battery recycling technologies and adapt safety practices accordingly. Qualifications Required: • Education: Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, or related field (Master's preferred). • Experience: 3+ years in process safety, chemical manufacturing, or recycling industries; experience with lithium-ion batteries strongly preferred. • Certifications: CSP, CCPS, or equivalent credentials desirable. • Skills: • Deep knowledge of OSHA PSM, EPA RMP, and NFPA standards. • Expertise in hazard analysis methodologies (HAZOP, LOPA, FMEA). • Strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving abilities. TRAVEL: 30% to 50% Preferred: Familiarity with battery chemistries, recycling processes, and associated hazards. [Additional qualifications that would be a plus but not required] Worksite Conditions • Based at battery recycling plant sites. • Exposure to industrial environments with chemical, fire, and mechanical hazards. • Collaboration with operations, engineering, EHS, and regulatory agencies.
