  • Work alongside compliance teams to ensure alignment with all relevant OSHA and EPA requirements.
  • Support the development of dedicated EHS resources across the site, guiding and mentoring future leaders.
  • Drive continuous improvement in EHS processes, systems, and reporting standards.

What does this role offer you?

  • Leadership exposure: The highest-graded EHS position on site, with a clear path to senior leadership.
  • Strategic impact: Play a pivotal role in shaping the next stage of the site's safety and sustainability journey.
  • Growth and investment: Join a business committed to developing talent and providing resources for long-term success.

  • Comprehensive package: Salary between $110,000-$148,000, plus annual bonus, full benefits, and domestic relocation support (international considered for the right person).

What we're looking for:

  • Proven track record leading EHS within large-scale manufacturing or food production environments.
  • Capable of building high-performing teams and influencing cross-functional leaders.
  • Strong knowledge of OSHA regulations, environmental compliance, and EHS best practices
