- Promote a strong safety culture by following HSE procedures, completing training, and working with the HSE advisor to identify improvements.

- Confident in leading, coaching, and making decisions under pressure
- Skilled at solving complex problems and driving continuous improvement
- Reliable, flexible, and committed to getting the job done right
