You will collaborate with engineering teams, subcontractors, and customers to embed HSE considerations into every phase of the project lifecycle-supporting activities such as design reviews, site operations, and construction interfaces. By monitoring performance, establishing KPIs, and guiding corrective actions, you will help ensure safe working environments and reliable project delivery.

  • Deliver HSE training and induction programs to maintain workforce competencies on site
  • Responsible to ensure compliance with applicable external and internal regulations, procedures, and guidelines.
