  • Climb and work from heights as required.
Qualifications
  • High school diploma or equivalent preferred.
  • Minimum of 2 years offshore experience.

  • Demonstrate visible leadership and support proactive safety processes (JSA, Time Out & TEAM BBS Observations) to achieve an incident-free workplace and advance our safety culture.
  • Adhere to all Health, Safety & Environmental (HSE) Management System policies, procedures, safe work practices, and client-specific regulatory requirements.
  • Make a personal commitment and be accountable for HSE results, driving toward the achievement of defined goals. Clearly communicate these goals through direct reports, while coaching, mentoring, and empowering others to achieve desired outcomes.
