Emergency Preparedness: Design and maintain business continuity and disaster recovery plans to ensure the organization can function after a crisis.
Budget Oversight: Develop and manage the department’s budget, including safety equipment procurement and training resources.
Safety Culture: Foster a "culture of safety" through proactive training, "Safe Catch" or "Near-Miss" reporting programs and leading the Safety Committee.

Education: A Bachelor’s degree in Occupational Health and Safety, Risk Management, Engineering, or a related field. A Master’s degree or equivalent job experience a plus.
Knowledge: Expertise in OSHA, DOT, and industry-specific regulations.
Skills: Strong analytical, leadership, communication, and crisis management skills.
Experience: Most positions require 10–15 years of progressive safety and risk experience, with at least 5 years in a management capacity. Legal background and/or experience working closely with legal counsel on litigation/claims, a plus.
