    • Facilitate HAZOP, HAZID, and LOPA reviews for both new and existing processes.
    • Implement and maintain robust process safety management systems aligned with regulatory and industry standards.
    • Collaborate closely with R&D, Production, Maintenance, and EHS teams to drive performance and ensure compliance.
    • Prepare and review process documentation including PFDs, P&IDs, SOPs, and risk assessments.
    • Provide guidance and mentor junior engineers, supporting capability development within the team.

    What You Bring

    • Bachelor's degree (or higher) in Chemical Engineering or related discipline.
    • 5+ years' experience in chemical manufacturing with clear expertise in process chemistry and vacuum distillation.
    • Proven ability to lead HAZOP, HAZID, and LOPA assessments.
    • Strong understanding of process safety management and regulatory expectations.
    • Excellent analytical, communication, and organisational skills.
    • Ability to work effectively both independently and within multidisciplinary teams.

    Desirable Skills

    • Experience in the Fragrance Ingredients industry.
    • Exposure to Lean, Six Sigma, or other continuous improvement methodologies.
    • Familiarity with additional automation or control systems.
    • Strong commitment to safety, sustainability, and responsible operations.
