What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead SHEQ compliance and environmental protection efforts, implement IMS/ISO systems, mentor staff, and contribute to sustainable, safe operations.

I am a committed SHEQ (Safety, Health, Environment & Quality) officer with a BSc in Environmental Health Management and extensive hands-on experience across water utilities and mining operations. I specialize in implementing and maintaining SHEQ management systems, conducting inspections and audits, and producing clear reports for senior management.

I have led environmental monitoring, compliance and mitigation efforts, handled water quality investigations, and supported ISO-based IMS implementations. My roles have included stakeholder engagement, staff training, and championing SHEQ culture to drive safer, more compliant operations.

I bring practical laboratory and field sampling experience, strong knowledge of ISO 9001/14001 and OHSAS 18001, and a proactive, analytical approach to problem solving to help organizations reduce environmental impact and meet regulatory obligations.
