Summary
I've built my career here on site in production, working in a safety‑critical environment where I've developed a real interest in EHS. Through my Level 3 apprenticeship and hands‑on experience, I've gained strong knowledge of hygiene standards, SOPs, risk‑based thinking, and continuous improvement. I enjoy being someone people can rely on, and I'm motivated to take on more responsibility in helping keep the site safe. I know the processes, the people, and the culture here, and I'm ready to bring that experience into an EHS Advisor role.
