Job description

About the company

Our client is the engineering and construction arm of a global industrial gases company, delivering gas and chemical installation projects for the semiconductor industry. In Singapore, its project team is carrying out a chemical and gas installation package on a leading semiconductor manufacturer’s campus. It has a dedicated project execution team and an established HSE management system on site.

About the role

This is a hands-on, site-based HSE role for the 18-month construction phase of the project. Working alongside the Site HSE Manager, you will provide day-to-day HSE supervision on site, making sure every subcontractor does the right job to the right procedure. The site is moving from piling into equipment and instrumentation installation, followed by a heavy programme of piping connections. More subcontractors will mobilise as that happens, and the workforce will build to 70 to 80 people a day at peak. The HSE processes are already in place. The job is making them hold at the workface as the site scales up.

Key responsibilities

• Supervise subcontractor activities through daily patrols, inspections and in-depth checks, and track corrective actions through to close-out
• Review subcontractor method statements, risk assessments and job hazard analyses, and check that the controls are applied in the field
• Run the permit-to-work system for high-risk activities and overlapping work, including excavation, scaffolding, work at height and lifting
• Attend critical activities such as heavy lifts, pressure tests and machine commissioning
• Enforce Life Saving Rules and the yellow/red card system, and lead toolbox talks and last minute risk analysis (LMRA) before each shift or major task
• Check that worker certifications, statutory training and equipment inspections are valid and on file
• Report incidents and near misses, support root cause investigations, and organise evacuation, fire and first aid drills
• Prepare weekly and monthly HSE reports, inspection records and action trackers for project management and the end customer

What we’re looking for

• Workplace Safety and Health Officer (WSHO) certification
• HSE experience on large chemical, petrochemical, industrial gas or oil and gas projects
• Experience across the full project lifecycle, from construction through commissioning and handover; greenfield and brownfield exposure is an advantage
• Confidence supervising several subcontractors at once and holding the line on procedure in the field
• Clear written and spoken English for reporting and for dealing with the customer and subcontractors
• Able to work actively on site every day, including patrols, inspections and work at height areas

Working arrangements

The role is site-based on a semiconductor campus in Singapore, for the 18-month construction phase. Hours are fixed at eight a day, with Saturday a normal working day. The start is immediate. There are two interview rounds, with the hiring manager and then the Project Director, followed by a final interview with the end customer.
