Do you think people are the most important asset?
Then we're off to a good start.
We're Powerco, and people are at the heart of our business. Be it the 420,000 customers we have across our gas and electricity networks who rely on us to keep the lights on, and the energy flowing, our 350 plus employees across New Plymouth, Palmerston North, Wellington and Tauranga, or the 300 field staff who help us ensure our networks remain available 24/7.
We've got a lot to cover, being New Zealand's largest electricity and gas distributor in terms of network length. And that means we're there day in and day out making sure we deliver, as people rely on our service and its a responsibility we take very seriously. In short, we think people matter. Always have, always will. And that's why we're continuing to ensure our health and safety policy and practice is leading edge.
HSEQ at Powerco
It's vital to us. We're committed to keeping our staff, public and contractors safe.
Are you the person that is always thinking about the 'what ifs' in life? Do you strive to identify future problems and work to eliminate them? We're looking for a manager who is analytical, can think ahead and can help Powerco safety systems continue to be proactive towards identifying issues and challenges before they develop and look to eliminate them.
With over 30,000km in electricity networks, ensuring safety and environmental protection is our number one priority.
Your opportunity
You will design, champion and promote a strong process safety framework through effective management of critical risks. Identify and manage the execution of strategic initiatives to deliver continuous improvement to Powerco's safety and risk management. You will also manage external consultants to deliver technical expertise to the business in best practice in managing health and safety risks.
As a great communicator you will build effective relationships across the organisation to develop next evolutions of Health and Safety risk management processes and the future skills that the business will need. You will manage our HSE and Quality internal/external assurance programme to identify gaps between work imagined and work done.
We're a place where things get done, where no one is a cog in a wheel; we all contribute and celebrate success together. Your career to date will show that you have a delivery focus, high attention to detail and have always kept up with training and development in your profession. Once you're on-board we will continue to help you stay at the forefront of safety and risk as part of HSEQ.
As a safety and risk professional with a good amount of experience under your belt, you'll bring with you a passion for process safety and a strong commitment to continuous improvement in Health and Safety and Environmental Management Systems. Plus, your experience from working within sector
will mean you're equally comfortable looking and analysing data and then presenting in the boardroom or in the toolbox meeting.
