Direct risk assessments and incident investigations proactively, identify potential hazards, and implement strategies to mitigate them.

Conduct Health and Safety incident investigations, analyse root causes, and formulate corrective actions to prevent future occurrences.

Work collaboratively across all divisions and functions to integrate and improve Health and Safety performance.

Develop and monitor Health and Safety performance indicators, and report on the progress to senior management and stakeholders.
