• Conduct biosafety and laboratory safety audits, gap analyses, and maturity assessments; develop corrective actions and verify effectiveness
• Oversee program interfaces such as equipment certification coordination, laboratory design and operational readiness reviews, waste management, occupational health linkages (vaccines and medical surveillance), and contractor controls
• Design and implement broader Health & Safety and Technical Risk programs, including compliance auditing, ISO 45001-aligned management systems, risk management, contractor management, and Serious Injury & Fatality (SIF) prevention
• Lead incident investigations, root cause analyses, corrective action development, and control verification while driving organizational learning
• Support safety culture and leadership initiatives, including coaching, field engagement, and capability building
