The role

As an EHS Officer (MVK), you will work for a client company in an industrial production environment in Schiedam, South Holland. You will help reduce environmental, health and safety risks and embed safe working practices in day-to-day operations. You will be visible on the production floor and work closely with operators and the team leader.

Responsibilities

  • Encourage employees to report near misses.
  • Contribute to safety projects involving air quality and ergonomics.
  • Further develop the EHS system, keep task risk analyses (TRAs) current, and implement a clear permit-to-work system.
  • Contribute actively towards achieving ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certification.
  • Intervene when safety risks arise: in consultation with the team leader, stop the production line when needed and help plan a safe restart.

  • Several years of experience in a similar EHS role, for example in the metal, chemical or process industries.
  • Excellent command of Dutch and English.
  • A practical, persuasive approach and strong communication skills. You work easily with operators and are prepared to escalate safety risks to management.
  • Persistence and patience to bring colleagues along and keep projects moving despite operational pressures.

What is offered

  • Gross monthly salary of €4,107–€4,855 for 38 hours per week. The stated gross annual range (€53,226–€62,921) includes 8% holiday allowance and fixed allowances.
