As a Process Safety Manager, you will be responsible for organizing and maintaining process safety information documentation and coordinating initial process hazard analyses (PHA) along with periodic updates. You will develop recommendations to address process safety issues identified during risk analysis and create local written procedures to ensure program implementation.

You will conduct post-incident and near-miss investigations related to process safety, track key performance metrics, and use statistics to identify opportunities for performance improvement. Ensuring an effective Management of Change (MOC) process and maintaining documentation will be crucial, as will building good working relationships with regulatory agencies. Additionally, you will support other safety, environment, and fire protection activities, conduct routine audits of the PSM processes, coordinate external audits, and ensure corrective actions are completed. You will coach and train employees and the plant leadership team on process safety requirements and provide expertise to support emergency preparedness.
