Occupational Safety and Environmental Compliance Manager

Build a Safety Culture That Lasts

Your mission: engineer a zero-accident future and embed safety thinking into every decision. You’ll alternate your week between two core locations—typically three days in Appleton and two in Neenah—while advising field service teams across North America. Travel will be occasional and generally under 10%.

The Challenge You’ll Tackle

From day one, you’ll architect a behavior-based program—not just maintain one—tying clear targets to business outcomes. Imagine rolling out a standard that frontline teams embrace because it makes their work easier and safer, then proving the impact through data.

• Establish, monitor, and present critical HSE metrics: fewer serious injuries, strong testing completion and scores, and tangible reductions in operational risk.
• Align policy with practice: keep the organization compliant with company rules and government safety regulations.
• Develop ownership: coach leaders and teams so safety becomes a shared value, not a checklist.
• Anticipate and eliminate risks: conduct formal risk assessments, flag hazards early, and implement root-cause-driven corrective actions.
