Lead or coordinate investigations into accidents, incidents and near misses, identifying root causes and recommending corrective and preventive actions.
Ensure timely submission of accident reports and track corrective actions through to completion.

Develop recognition programmes for strong performers and apply fair, evidence-based corrective action for poor-performing or high-risk drivers.
Conduct regular site visits and spot checks to verify compliance with safety requirements, driver documentation and operational procedures, following up on non-compliance.
Drive continuous improvement initiatives and ensure lessons learned from incidents are communicated across the driver population.
