• Plan and conduct internal audits and manage corrective actions
• Investigate incidents, near misses and hazards, identifying root causes and improvements
• Analyse HSEQ data, trends and KPIs to support continuous improvement
• Provide practical H&S support to operational and project teams (including rail-related standards)
• Deliver in-house H&S training and support the company’s sustainability journey
