Site HSE Program Leader, Manufacturing Operations

About the role

You arrive on the manufacturing floor and check in with your dedicated, non-desk HSE professional. A quick stand-up with the Facility Leader sets priorities: a behavior-based safety walk, follow-ups from yesterday’s incident review, and alignment on upcoming audits.

Responsibilities

• Provide day-to-day direction to one full-time HSE professional (non-desk).
• Build accountability, engagement, and continuous improvement at every level.
• Develop, implement, train, and maintain policies, programs, and procedures aligned with corporate standards and OSHA, EPA, DOT requirements.
• Own permits, reporting, and regulatory interactions end-to-end.
• Champion behavior-based safety and team member engagement, including Consequence Thinking - Zero & Beyond.
• Support procedure implementation, interpret regulations, and execute corporate mandates on the floor.
• Lead reporting and investigations; drive root cause analysis, corrective actions, and best-practice sharing across sites.
• Conduct/support internal and external audits, regulatory inspections, and operational reviews.
• Work with the Quality Manager to maintain ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 certifications. Support Kaizen/Gemba and CI where HSE is critical.
• Represent the region in cross-site forums.
• Participate in corporate initiatives and support strategic HSE projects set by the Director of HSE or Facility Leader.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Safety, Environmental, Engineering, or related field (equivalent HSE experience may substitute for a degree).
• 3+ years of hands-on HSE experience, ideally in manufacturing.
• Proven strength in OSHA compliance, behavior-based safety, incident management, auditing, and training.
• Experience with environmental compliance (permits, waste management, reporting).
• Working knowledge of ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 preferred.
• Familiarity with workers’ compensation programs.
• Ability to travel periodically for audits, cross-site initiatives, or training.

Skills

• Hands-on environment: Ideal for change-makers on the manufacturing floor.
• High ownership: You lead the full HSE function for the site.
• Impactful leadership: Protect people while elevating operations.
• Cross-functional influence: Become part of the facility’s leadership fabric.
