3What this role really is

This role shapes the global approach to EHS auditing, making sure operations are safe, compliant and resilient. It involves building an assurance programme that protects people, sites and reputation. It means leading a team of managers, setting strategy, and presenting EHS risks to executives and the Board.

4What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

EHS Management Suite (e.g., Intelex, Cority, Enablon, VelocityEHS) Strategic

Leading platform selection/vendor evaluation, defining enterprise-wide data governance for EHS, integrating modules with other business systems (e.g., HRIS, ERP). You're the architect of how we use these tools globally.

Mobile Audit/Inspection (e.g., iAuditor by SafetyCulture, GoCanvas) Architect

Setting the strategic direction for mobile deployment across the organisation, evaluating the ROI of mobile tools versus traditional methods, and ensuring data security protocols are met for all field data collection.

BI & Data Visualization (e.g., Power BI, Tableau) Advanced

Developing and maintaining the definitive regional/global EHS performance dashboards for executive leadership and the Board. You'll use these tools for high-level trend analysis and strategic insights, directing your team on underlying data connections.

Document & Collaboration (e.g., SharePoint, MS Teams, Confluence) Strategic

Defining the enterprise information architecture for all compliance and safety documentation, ensuring robust version control, auditability, and ease of access for a global workforce. You'll set the standards.

Regulatory Intelligence (e.g., LexisNexis Environmental, Enablon Regulatory Compliance) Strategic

Determining the subscription level and scope for regulatory intelligence tools, ensuring comprehensive coverage aligns with the company's global geographic and operational footprint. You'll ensure we're always ahead of changes.

Enterprise GRC System (e.g., ServiceNow GRC, Archer) Intermediate

Working closely with the broader GRC team to map EHS controls to enterprise risk frameworks, ensuring safety audit data accurately feeds into executive risk dashboards and informs overall corporate governance.

6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

Enterprise-wide TRIR & LTIFR Reduction
The overall Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) and Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) across the entire organisation.
Target · Contribute to a 10-15% year-over-year reduction in global TRIR and LTIFR.

If the global TRIR was 0.8 in 2023, your programme should contribute to it being 0.72 or lower in 2024. This isn't just your team's work, but your programme's influence.

Audit Programme Coverage & Effectiveness
The percentage of high-risk sites audited according to schedule, and the rate at which critical and major findings are closed on time.
Target · 100% of critical sites audited annually; 95% of critical findings closed within the agreed timeframe (typically 90 days).

Ensuring all 20 of our Tier 1 manufacturing sites receive their full audit within the calendar year, and that less than 5% of their critical findings remain open past their due date.

Regulatory Compliance Score
Performance in external regulatory inspections and internal compliance assessments, reflecting the overall state of adherence to EHS laws.
Target · Maintain an average external inspection score of 90%+ (where applicable) and a <5% rate of 'significant' internal compliance findings.

Achieving no 'Serious' or 'Willful' violations in any regulatory inspection globally, and ensuring internal compliance audits show a consistent upward trend in adherence.

Leading Indicator Growth & Quality
The growth and quality of proactive safety metrics like near-miss reporting, safety observations, and hazard identifications.
Target · Increase near-miss reporting by 20% year-over-year globally, with a focus on high-quality reports that include root causes.

Seeing a consistent increase in the number of 'Good Catches' reported across the organisation, and verifying that these reports are leading to actual hazard elimination, not just paperwork.

EHS Assurance Budget Adherence
Managing the financial resources allocated to the EHS Assurance function.
Target · Operate within ±5% of the approved annual budget for the EHS Assurance department.

If your annual budget is £3M, you'll manage your team's travel, training, and operational costs to stay between £2.85M and £3.15M, explaining any significant variances.

Executive Confidence in EHS Assurance
The degree to which C-suite and Board members trust and rely on the EHS Assurance function's findings and recommendations for strategic decision-making.
  • Proactively invited to strategic planning meetings
  • opinions sought on major capital projects with EHS implications
  • audit reports are consistently acted upon without significant challenge
  • positive feedback from Board Audit Committee members.
Proactive Risk Identification & Mitigation
The EHS Assurance programme consistently identifies emerging EHS risks or systemic failures *before* they lead to incidents or regulatory action.
  • Audit findings frequently highlight latent organisational weaknesses that, when addressed, prevent future incidents
  • audit reports are used to inform capital expenditure for risk reduction
  • positive feedback from risk management teams on early warnings.
Global Audit Programme Cohesion & Quality
The consistency, standardisation, and high quality of audit execution and reporting across all regions and by all audit managers.
  • External peer reviews of the audit programme are consistently positive
  • audit managers demonstrate consistent application of methodologies
  • findings are clear, evidence-based, and actionable regardless of the auditor or region
  • minimal internal debate on audit report accuracy.
Talent Development & Team Health
The effectiveness of your leadership in developing and retaining a high-performing team of EHS audit managers and specialists.
  • Low voluntary turnover within your direct team
  • clear career progression for your managers
  • positive feedback in 360-degree reviews
  • your team is seen as a talent pipeline for other EHS leadership roles within the organisation.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Protecting People & Planet

You'll go home knowing that the systemic changes you've driven have made our workplaces safer for thousands of employees globally. You're genuinely driven by the moral imperative to prevent harm.

Reviewing incident trends and seeing a direct correlation between a new audit protocol you implemented and a reduction in specific types of injuries across multiple sites.

Shaping Organisational Strategy

You'll be at the table with senior leaders, influencing major business decisions by providing critical EHS risk intelligence. You're not just executing; you're helping define the path.

Presenting audit findings on a new product line to the executive committee, leading to a redesign of its manufacturing process to embed safety from the start.

Building a High-Performing Global Team

You'll spend time coaching your regional managers, helping them navigate complex site politics, and celebrating their successes. You get a real kick out of seeing your team members grow and excel.

One of your regional managers successfully implements a new audit methodology across their region, and you see their confidence and capability grow significantly under your guidance.

What frustrates people
  • The 'Safety Cop' Stigma, but at a global, executive level: constantly battling the perception that your function is there to catch people out, rather than to help the business succeed safely.
  • Systemic CAPA Procrastination: chasing regional directors for months to get evidence that critical corrective actions have been truly implemented and verified across multiple sites.
  • Déjà Vu Findings, but across entire regions: seeing the exact same critical non-conformances reappear in different countries or business units, proving the underlying enterprise-level root cause was never fixed.
  • The ROI Battle, but for multi-million-pound investments: trying to convince the Board to spend significant capital on engineering controls to mitigate a high-potential risk that hasn't caused a major incident yet.
  • Navigating Global Political Pressure: being implicitly or explicitly asked to 'soften' audit findings for a high-revenue region or a powerful executive, and having to stand firm.
  • Audit Fatigue, but for your entire team: managing the mental and physical drain on your regional managers who are constantly on the road, living out of suitcases, and having similar difficult conversations at dozens of different facilities.
  • Board Report Purgatory: the intense pressure and meticulous effort involved in crafting precise, defensible, and politically astute EHS risk reports for the Board, knowing every word will be scrutinised.
What this role does not give you
  • A purely technical, hands-on auditing role – your focus is strategic leadership and programme management.
  • A predictable, 9-to-5 schedule with minimal travel – expect significant global travel and urgent demands.
  • A role where every recommendation is immediately adopted without challenge – you'll need to fight for resources and buy-in.
  • A quiet, solitary work environment – you'll be constantly engaging with senior leaders, your team, and external parties.

8Who you work with

This role directly shapes the organisation's overall EHS risk profile and resilience. Your work ensures that executive leadership and the Board have an accurate, unbiased view of EHS performance and compliance across all operations. You'll drive systemic improvements that directly reduce incidents, protect our people, and ensure we meet our legal and ethical obligations globally. Frankly, you're a critical defence line against operational and reputational catastrophe.

Inside the business
  • C-Suite (CEO, COO, CFO)
  • Board Audit Committee
  • Regional Business Unit VPs and Directors
  • Legal and Corporate Governance Teams
  • Head of Operations and Manufacturing
  • HR Leadership
Outside the business
  • Regulatory Bodies (HSE, OSHA, EPA equivalents globally)
  • External Auditors and Consultants
  • Industry Associations
  • Insurance Providers

9What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • Extensive (16+ years) experience leading and managing EHS audit programmes across multiple geographies, preferably in a complex industrial or manufacturing environment.
  • Proven track record of successfully influencing C-suite and Board-level stakeholders on EHS risk management and strategic safety initiatives.
  • Demonstrable experience in building, developing, and leading high-performing teams of EHS professionals, including managers.
  • Deep expertise in EHS management systems (e.g., ISO 45001, ISO 14001) and advanced audit methodologies (e.g., ISO 19011).
  • A strong understanding of enterprise risk management principles and how EHS assurance contributes to overall business resilience.
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to articulate complex EHS issues and solutions to diverse audiences, from shop floor to boardroom.

10What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

EHS Digital Transformation & Integration

The future of EHS assurance is a connected ecosystem. You'll need to understand how EHS management suites, mobile tools, BI platforms, and GRC systems integrate to create a seamless, data-rich environment. This means moving beyond standalone tools to a truly integrated digital EHS landscape.

API Management & Data Exchange · Cloud EHS Solutions · Digital Twin & IoT for EHS · Cybersecurity for OT/ICS Safety

  • This quarter: Review our current EHS tech stack and identify key integration points and gaps.
  • Next 6 months: Lead a cross-functional working group (IT, Operations, EHS) to develop a 3-5 year EHS digital roadmap.
  • Next 12 months: Evaluate potential new EHS platforms or modules that offer superior integration capabilities.
  • Ongoing: Network with peers in other large organisations to learn about their EHS digital transformation journeys.

Quick win: Map out the current data flow from audit findings to executive reports. Where are the manual steps? Where are the data silos? These are your first targets for integration.

11Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Regularly attend global EHS leadership conferences and industry forums (e.g., NEBOSH, IOSH, NSC Congress) to stay current on best practices, emerging risks, and regulatory changes.
  • Actively participate in industry working groups or associations focused on EHS assurance, sharing insights and influencing industry standards.
  • Undertake continuous professional development in areas like executive coaching, strategic planning, and advanced data analytics to enhance leadership and decision-making capabilities.
  • Mentor junior EHS professionals, not just within your team but across the organisation, to foster a strong EHS talent pipeline.

This is where the work is heading, and the higher pay with it. Get fluent here and the shift stops being a threat and starts being your edge.

ESG Reporting & Assurance Integration

Investors, regulators, and customers are increasingly demanding robust Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting. EHS is a huge component of 'E' and 'S'. Your audit programme will need to provide assurance on ESG data and controls, not just traditional EHS compliance.

  • SASB/GRI Reporting Standards
  • Double Materiality
  • ESG Data Governance
  • Supply Chain ESG Due Diligence

AI-Driven Predictive Analytics for EHS

The ability to move beyond reactive auditing to truly predict where and when incidents are most likely to occur is a game-changer. AI can spot patterns in vast datasets that humans can't, allowing for targeted, proactive interventions before things go wrong. This is about shifting from 'finding problems' to 'preventing problems'.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, as a Director, your time is gold. You're constantly juggling strategic planning, executive reporting, team management, and navigating complex global risks. What if you could cut through the noise, get critical insights faster, and free up significant time for truly strategic work? That's where AI comes in.

We're not talking about replacing your strategic judgment, but augmenting it. Our AI Productivity Hub is designed to take the heavy lifting out of data synthesis, trend spotting, and even initial report drafting, allowing you to focus on what you do best: leading, influencing, and protecting our organisation.

Strategic Risk Prioritisation

Imagine an AI assistant that analyses thousands of audit findings, incident reports, near-miss data, and global regulatory changes. It then highlights the top 5 emerging enterprise-level systemic risks that demand your immediate executive attention, complete with supporting evidence and potential impact scenarios. This helps you focus your strategic efforts where they matter most.

Global Compliance Trend Analysis

AI can sift through audit data from all regions, identifying subtle patterns in non-conformances, recurring root causes, or emerging compliance gaps that might be missed by manual review. It'll flag best practices from one region that could be scaled globally, or pinpoint a specific type of control failure that's silently spreading across the organisation. This gives you unparalleled visibility.

Policy & Procedure Harmonisation

Navigating global EHS regulations and internal policies is a nightmare. Our AI can compare EHS policies across different geographies against local regulatory requirements, flagging inconsistencies, areas for standardisation, or specific documents that need urgent updates. It can even suggest revised wording, saving countless hours of legal and policy review.

Executive Briefing & Board Report Generation

After your team completes their audits, AI can take raw findings, regional summaries, and performance data, then structure this unstructured information into initial drafts of executive briefings or even Board-level reports. It populates key sections, summarises trends, and highlights critical recommendations, giving you a solid foundation to review, refine, and add your strategic narrative.
