Lead HSE Risk Management (‘HSE Lead’)

• Can deliver continuous improvement of HSE performance through pro-active HSE management, relentless pursuit of adherence to policy and standards, exemplary personal leadership behaviour, provision of appropriate organisation and resources, and systematic review of effectiveness.

• - Be mindful of HSE risks and drive the consistent application of PDO’s HSE MS, systematically reviewing its effectiveness and taking corrective action as necessary.
• - Demonstrate visible and felt leadership by communicating a clear vision, setting and championing challenging performance goals (such as Goal Zero) and consistently demonstrating the importance of HSE via personal involvement, visibility, decisions and actions.
• - Motivate, coach and develop staff and contractors towards improving HSE culture and behaviours through promotion of the Golden Rules and personal example as a role model.
• - Deliver compliance with applicable laws, regulations and PDO HSE requirements, applying consistent Consequence Management.
• - Engage with stakeholders and set long-term HSE objectives in line with expectations whilst adhering to HSE Policy. Take ownership of HSE input to the PDO Annual Assurance Letter.
