• Promote a culture of continual Health & Safety improvement.

• Support hazard identification and risk management activities across the CAPEX portfolio, providing practical solutions to mitigate identified risks.

• Promote local Health & Safety targets and improvement strategies to encourage accountability and ownership at all levels of the organisation.

• Develop individual capability in identifying, assessing and controlling risks, supporting the achievement of an incident-free workplace.

• Conduct training needs analyses for projects, coordinating and delivering Health & Safety training where appropriate.

• Manage document control and record retention relating to loss prevention and control, ensuring the business can demonstrate compliance with Health & Safety obligations.
