• Driving a strong safety culture and leading Health, Safety & Environment performance across the site.

• Managing site budgets, plant performance, asset reliability and operational risk.
• Building strong relationships with union representatives, suppliers and key business stakeholders.
• Contributing as a key member of the senior leadership team and helping shape operational strategy.

You’ll bring:

• Proven experience leading manufacturing, industrial, engineering or operational teams.
• A visible commitment to health and safety.
• Strong people leadership skills and the ability to coach, develop and empower others.
• Experience leading multidisciplinary functions including production, maintenance, engineering and logistics.
