EHS/HSE (Environment | Health | Safety) Specialist (m/f) (JN -032021-2551843) Zürich, Switzerland
Due to the company growth and expansion of the production and distribution capacity, the EHS/HSE team will be reinforced with one additional EHS/HSE Specialist reporting directly to the EHS Manager Switzerland.
The hired person will be primarily based either in the production plant or in the close-based main distribution center, but will have nationwide scope, supporting the entire organisation of around 1,000 employees in Switzerland across all sites.
Depending on the background of the hired candidate, the focus would be as an all-rounder in all EHS/HSE disciplines (Environmental and waste management | Health | Safety) or rather in one of these three disciplines at the beginning, with the target to be trained on the job on those areas with less experience or know-how.
The main tasks as an EHS/HSE Specialist would be:
- Keep up to date on EHS regulations through multiple information sources and share this knowledge across the team
- Deliver EHS training in the organisation at all levels and further develop the training content based on new standards and regulations
- Participate in internal EHS audits and prepare the sites for external audits. Implement the action plans on improvement areas identified during the audits.
- Participate in multiple corporate EHS initiatives to be adapted for Switzerland and rolled-out in the sites (e.g. a hazardous material transportation program)
- Assist in the preparation of EHS performance reports
- Elaborate surveys for employees and establish recommendations based on survey conclusions
- Support employees in employee-led committees on environmental or health & safety topics
