  • Develop and implement the regional Health & Safety strategy across all JTI Markets, GBS, and R&D, providing oversight and guidance to achieve corporate targets and ensure alignment with local legal and JTI requirements.
  • Provide oversight of regional compliance with legal and JTI Health & Safety requirements by conducting regular audits and assessments, identifying gaps, and offering subject matter expertise to drive corrective actions.
  • Lead regional risk management efforts to identify, assess, and mitigate health and safety–related business risks, reducing organizational exposure and liability.
  • Oversee the regional incident investigation program, including leading investigations in cases of fatalities, driving root cause analysis, and reviewing the need for changes to standards and procedures.
  • Ensure lessons learned from incidents are shared at regional and global levels and embedded into local standards and programs to support continuous improvement.
  • Monitor, track, and continuously improve regional health and safety performance using relevant metrics and performance indicators.
  • Lead and develop the regional Health & Safety community by promoting best‑practice sharing, coordinating safety training programs, supporting safety leadership development, maintaining strong stakeholder relationships, and managing H&S talent where applicable.

 

Requirements:

  • More than 10 years of experience working in EHS within Oil and Gas, Chemical, Mining, Tobbaco, FMCG, and/or manufacturing environments; regional or multi‑country experience is a significant advantage.
  • Strong knowledge of EHS management systems, risk management, regulatory requirements, standards, training management, and ISO systems.
