  • Coordinate with regulatory agencies, industry groups, and other stakeholders on EHS matters including permitting, reporting, and compliance requirements.
  • Stay current on emerging EHS trends, regulations, and best practices to continuously improve program effectiveness.
  • Own and manage ZCS's hazardous waste program end-to-end, including waste characterization, labeling, accumulation area management, and manifesting.
  • Schedule and coordinate hazardous waste pickups with licensed disposal vendors; maintain vendor relationships and service agreements.
  • Maintain complete and audit-ready hazardous waste records including manifests, land disposal restriction (LDR) forms, and biennial/annual reports as required by RCRA and state regulations.
  • Set up and routinely audit material handling protocols including materials shipping/receiving and hazardous chemical inventory and disposal.
  • Train employees on proper hazardous waste handling, segregation, and emergency response for spills or releases.
  • Maintain SDS library and chemical inventory.
  • Lead company Hazard Identification (HAZID), Hazard and Operability (HAZOP), Process Hazard Analysis (PHA), and Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) activities and author or approve the resulting safety documentation.
  • Lead and document Pre-Startup Safety Reviews (PSSRs) for new and modified equipment, ensuring all action items are closed prior to startup.
  • Own the full library of EHS and process safety documentation including PHAs, PSSRs, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), JHAs, permit-to-work records, and management-of-change (MOC) files.
  • Support engineering design reviews (equipment selection, startup/shutdown/upset planning, operability) to ensure EHS considerations are integrated from the outset.
  • Review all SOPs for accuracy and safety and confirm they are being implemented as written.
  • Review and sign off on non-standard operational procedures (deviations from SOPs) and equipment maintenance; develop and administer the permit-to-work program.
  • Ensure all construction and contractor plans meet industry best practices (e.g., lifting, welding, hot work, LOTO).
  • Oversee contractor onboarding, safety orientation, and on-site compliance with ZCS safety requirements.
  • Identify potential health hazards, including exposure to chemicals, heat, noise, ergonomic risks, and other physical hazards.
  • Conduct exposure assessments, environmental monitoring, and workplace sampling to determine employee exposure levels.
  • Analyze potential health effects associated with workplace hazard exposure and recommend controls to mitigate risks.
  • Develop and recommend administrative and engineering controls to minimize or eliminate hazard exposure.
  • Assess the need for and effectiveness of PPE and provide guidance on its selection, use, and maintenance.
  • Ensure compliance with occupational health and safety regulations set by OSHA and other regulatory bodies.
  • Investigate incidents, accidents, and near misses to determine root causes and develop prevention strategies.
  • Develop emergency response plans and procedures for spills, fires, and other workplace emergencies to minimize harm to people and property.
  • Develop, monitor, and maintain safe operations programs including leading and lagging performance indicators.
  • Oversee and advise on EHS aspects of current technology (air and water emissions, TSCA compliance, SDS authoring, and supporting test work).

Preferred Skills:

  • Professional certifications such as CSP, CIH, CHMM, or OSHA 30.
  • Direct experience with Process Safety Management Systems (PSMS).
  • Startup or early-stage company experience.
  • Familiarity with carbon capture, direct air capture (DAC), or other clean energy technologies.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
