Process Safety Management
• Develop, implement, and continuously improve site process safety management systems, procedures, and standards to prevent major accidents and incidents in line with legal, site, and corporate requirements.
• Lead safe process design reviews and introduce new products and processes from a process safety perspective, ensuring all hazards are identified and adequately controlled prior to operation.
• Chair, facilitate, and document HAZOPs, LOPAs, and other structured risk assessments across new and existing processes; track and close out action items to completion.
• Complete Pre-Startup Safety Reviews (PSSRs) for new and modified processes, equipment, and facilities, ensuring all safety-critical elements are verified before operations commence.
• Apply and maintain compliance with relevant process safety legislation and standards including COMAH, ATEX, IEC 61508/61511, and applicable PSM frameworks.
• Interact with the Management of Change (MOC) and change control processes, providing EHS approval and process safety input for all significant changes affecting people, plant, process, or environment.
• Review and maintain process safety documentation including HAZOP reports, safety cases, relief system designs, and capital project lifecycle deliverables.
• Propose, develop, and drive implementation of process safety improvement initiatives across the site.
• Maintain process safety KPIs and metrics; prepare and present regular performance reports to site leadership and global EHS teams.
• Engage with global process safety SMEs and networks to benchmark performance, share learnings, and incorporate best practice on site.
Emergency Preparedness & Business Continuity
• Maintain and enhance site emergency response plans, procedures, and preparedness arrangements, ensuring integration between project activities and live operational emergency response.
• Support business continuity planning from an EHS perspective, identifying and mitigating risks to continued safe operation during periods of significant change or construction activity.
• Provide EHS support for product campaigns, ensuring all process safety and emergency preparedness elements are adequately addressed and communicated to relevant teams.
Training, Auditing & Continuous Improvement
• Design and deliver process safety and EHS training programmes for site personnel, contractors, and project teams, building EHS capability and awareness across the organisation.
• Plan and conduct EHS audits across both the operational site and the capital project; share findings, drive improvement actions, and support the development of a proactive safety culture.
• Support safety investigations and troubleshooting activities, contributing technical process safety expertise to identify root causes and prevent recurrence.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of the site Safety Management System (SMS), identifying gaps and implementing enhancements in line with regulatory changes and corporate standards.
