What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to apply my environmental engineering skills while contributing to sustainable practices and compliance.

I am a Pollution Control Officer with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Engineering from the University of Science and Technology of Southern Philippines. My journey in environmental management began during my time at St. Jude Dressing Plant, where I served as an Area Head, gaining valuable insights into pollution control and environmental compliance.

In my recent role at Petrogazz/Marevi Coco Network OPC, I was responsible for overseeing pollution control measures, ensuring adherence to environmental regulations, and implementing effective waste management strategies. My experience at Amley Food Corporation as a Supervisor in the WWTP and Biogas department further honed my skills in managing complex environmental systems and leading teams to achieve operational excellence.
