As a senior corporate and operational leader with comprehensive experience in Health, Safety, Environment, Quality and Training (HSEQ&T) across diverse geographies, I am dedicated to fostering a zero-harm culture that protects people, the environment and company assets. My career has been defined by a commitment to strategic vision, operational excellence and the continuous improvement of risk management systems that exceed industry benchmarks. Throughout my career, I have successfully led HSEQ&T initiatives on major capital projects internationally. My leadership has been instrumental in achieving significant safety milestones, including over 420 days of zero harm at Newmont's Akyem Project and 13M serious injury-free hours on a large-scale construction project. I bring a unique blend of technical expertise, strategic planning and cultural awareness, ensuring that safety practices are not only compliant with global standards but also culturally sensitive and inclusive. I am passionate about coaching and mentoring teams to improve functional effectiveness, drive continuous improvement and foster a collaborative and safety-first mindset. My ability to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels, from frontline workers to board members, has consistently resulted in enhanced business performance and strengthened organisational cultures. Whether it's leading large, multidisciplinary teams or developing innovative safety programs, I am driven by the belief that every workplace can be made safer through a combination of technical excellence, strategic foresight and empathetic leadership. I am always looking for new challenges and opportunities to make a meaningful impact in the HSEQ&T field. Let’s connect if you share my passion for safety, risk management, and sustainable business practices.
