What are the responsibilities and job description for the EHS Specialist position at KnowHireMatch?
About the Company:
My client is a smaller, privately-owned manufacturing company with about 500 employees. They manufacture a variety of their own specialty chemicals as well as doing toll manufacturing. Over the last several years they have been growing very quickly and that growth continues. This role is open as a reflection of that growth - up until now, their risk manager was handling these responsibilities, but it has grown to the point where this can be its own full-time role.
About the Role:
This is more of a 'program manager' role, there are no direct reports as of now. This person will oversee regulatory aspects related to safety, health and environmental at the site (specifically the specialty chemical plant), with an initial focus on the first two (H & S). "E" is being handled by a third party contractor, but the eventual goal is to bring that permitting and compliance work in-house. The site is ISO14001 and ISO9001 and this person will oversee compliance for those, as well as their OSHA compliance.
