About the role

  • The role combines proven safety programs, advanced technology, and well-maintained equipment with a strong Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) framework, human performance principles, and behavior-based safety.
  • Today, safety at our operating companies is too often an afterthought and too often reactive.
  • This leader's mandate is to change that.

Responsibilities

  • Lead a Culture Change
  • Coach supervisors and service managers to lead safety conversations, recognize good catches, and hold the line with respect.
  • Build a proactive program centered on identifying and controlling high-energy and life-critical hazards before work begins (serious injury and fatality prevention).
  • Implement human and organizational performance (HOP) principles and error-reduction tools such as pre-job briefs, job hazard analysis, take-2 and take-5 checks, and verified critical controls.
  • Own the equipment-for-safety agenda: evaluate and upgrade PPE, tools, and clothing so crews are the best-equipped in the trade.
  • Implement a data-driven behavior-based safety (BBS) program that focuses on workers' actions and their consequences, targeting at-risk behaviors and reinforcing safe ones.
  • This proactive, data-driven approach reduces risk, protects our people, and delivers consistent, high-quality results for our customers.

Requirements

  • Build a proactive training program that goes beyond required certifications to the skills that prevent the next injury.

Skills

  • Owned by the field. Safety belongs to field leadership and every crew member, not to a binder or a single department.
  • Top of mind, not fear-based. People should engage with safety because they believe in it, not because they fear consequences.
