- Control Costs: Identify opportunities to reduce EHS-related costs through proactive prevention and process improvements.
- Inspire Change: Lead and support cultural transformations that make safety and environmental responsibility part of everything we do.
Competencies
- Strategic leadership and a strong sense of ownership.
- Strong root cause analysis and problem-solving skills.
- Ability to collaborate across departments and influence positive change.
- A continuous improvement mindset with an understanding of lean principles.
- Excellent communication, relationship-building, and employee engagement skills.

- Bachelor's degree and at least three (3) years of experience managing EHS programs and issues.
- Proven ability to lead EHS programs in manufacturing and distribution environments
- Strong knowledge of regulatory compliance (OSHA, EPA, DOT)
- Skilled in incident investigation and risk mitigation
- Effective communicator and trainer with employee engagement experience
- Proficient in Microsoft Office and EHS systems
- Familiar with ergonomics, industrial hygiene, and fire prevention
- Holds relevant certifications (e.g., CSP, CHMM, CIH, PE) and technical background in EHS or related fields
