EHS Associate Manager (Process Safety Management)

The EHS Associate Manager is the site’s subject matter expert and manages development, implementation and maintenance of processes to support compliance with OSHA’s Process Safety Management (PSM) standard and EPA’s Risk Management Plan (RMP) rule.  You will also provide technical leadership for the site’s emergency response and contractor safety management programs.  While this role involves direct and participative action in PSM, RMP, emergency response and contractor safety activities, success is dependent on developing and supporting “champions” within the site’s operations, maintenance and engineering teams versus acting as the sole individual responsible for these programs.
