Job description

To provide proactive HSSEQ leadership and operational assurance for a defined segment of the marine fleet. The Superintendent acts as the critical link between the Head HSSEQ and vessel-level HSSEQ Managers, ensuring consistent implementation of the Integrated Management System (IMS) across all assigned vessels, driving performance improvement, and ensuring full compliance with ISM, ISPS, MLC, MARPOL, ISO 45001, 14001, and 9001.

Strategic & Operational Oversight (Segment Level)

• Segment Performance Ownership: Accountable for all HSSEQ KPIs (TRIR, LTIF, near‑miss reporting rate, audit closure rates, environmental incidents) across assigned fleet segment.
• Risk Profiling: Maintain a live risk register for the segment (geographic, operational, asset‑specific) – e.g., heavy weather routes, piracy‑prone areas, client‑specific HSSE requirements.
• Fleet Assurance Schedule: Plan and execute a rolling program of announced and unannounced vessel visits, safety inspections, ISM internal audits, and ISPS security assessments (minimum 1 visit per vessel per 6 months).

Management of Offshore HSSEQ Managers & Vessel Leadership

• Direct Support & Coaching: Provide technical guidance and performance feedback to Offshore HSSEQ PIC and Masters regarding incident investigation, PTW audits, safety culture interventions, and client HSSE interface.
• Competency Assurance: Verify that all offshore HSSEQ PIC and vessel safety officers meet segment‑specific competency requirements (e.g., DP familiarization, heavy‑lift, anchor handling safety).
• Succession Planning: Identify high‑potential offshore HSSE talent for promotion within the segment.

Incident Management & Investigation (Segment Level)

• Lead or elevate high‑potential (HiPo) incidents, LTI, and major environmental breaches across the segment, ensuring consistent use of investigation methodology (e.g., TapRooT / 5‑Why).
• Review all incident reports from vessels before submission to the Head HSSEQ – ensure root causes and systemic corrective actions are identified.
• Track corrective action closure rates across the segment and elevate overdue actions.

Client & Third‑Party Interface (Segment‑Specific)

• Act as the primary HSSEQ point of contact for client HSSE teams within the segment (e.g., major oil companies, NOCs).
• Lead client pre‑qualification and tender responses for HSSE sections – present segment performance data during client audits.
• Coordinate joint safety campaigns and client‑led verification visits on assigned vessels.

Compliance & Assurance (ISM / ISPS / MLC)

• Serve as alternate or designated DPA (Designated Person Ashore) for vessels within the segment (if qualified under ISM Code).
• Monitor certificate validity (Class, Flag, Oil Major COCs, DOC extension) and advise vessels on upcoming surveys.
• Oversee external audit readiness (Flag state, Class, Oil Major, ISO) – pre‑audit vessels and debrief findings.

Environmental & Quality Performance

• Monitor segment‑level environmental metrics – carbon intensity (CII), oil‑in‑water exceedances, garbage segregation deviations, NOx/SOx compliance.
• Drive ISO 14001 segment objectives (e.g., reduction in single‑use plastics, improved fuel efficiency measures).
• Review customer satisfaction feedback (quality angle) and identify systemic non‑conformities across the segmet.
• REPORTING & ANALYTICS (Segment Dashboard)
  • Weekly: Highlight report to Head HSSEQ – significant incidents, outstanding audits, permit deviations.
  • Monthly: Segment HSSEQ Dashboard (leading/lagging, trend analysis, vessel ranking by safety observation rate).
  • Quarterly: Segment Management Review input – resource gaps, training needs, risk profile changes.
  • Ad Hoc: Root cause analysis summaries for any Tier 1 or Tier 2 process safety events (per IOGP).

Qualifications

• COC Class 1 Master/Engineer
• A degree in Nautical Studies, Engineering or any relevant degree
