About the role
The Opportunity
Own EHS at our Huntington Beach facility. This is a role with real ownership: you will lead the environmental, health and safety program for the site, from permits and audits to training and incident response, and you will answer for the results. You will not be a compliance checkpoint. You will be a hands-on leader on the manufacturing floor, shaping a culture where safety is everyone's job.
Success here is a facility with no serious injuries, no regulatory findings, and measurable improvement in environmental impact every year. Your goals are set annually, tracked monthly and reviewed each quarter, so you always know where you stand.
Why you will want this job:
- Full ownership: You are the accountable EHS leader for Huntington Beach, not an advisor on the sidelines.
- Visible impact: Your work shows up in lower injury rates, clean audits and real sustainability gains.
- Influence: You lead our EHS Coordinator, partner with every department and present EHS plans to senior management.
- Hands-on work: You spend your time on the floor, where safety is actually won.
What You Will Own
At TS Conductor, EHS is yours. You set the standard, run the programs and answer for the results. Each area below states the outcome you own, followed by how you will deliver it.
1. Compliance and ReportingYour outcome: The facility meets every federal, California and local EHS requirement, with no repeat findings, every permit and report filed on time, and records ready for audit at any moment.
- Track applicable regulations, prepare and file permits and reports, and keep records of inspections, investigations and compliance.
- Run audits and inspections, close every gap by its due date, and report results and KPIs to senior management and regulators.
2. Safety and Risk
Your outcome: Injuries and hazards decline year over year, hazards are fixed before they cause harm, and every incident ends in a root cause and a closed corrective action.
- Build and maintain safety programs, safe work procedures, emergency response plans and hazard communication systems, and evaluate new processes and equipment before they go into service.
- Assess work areas for hazards, lead investigations of accidents, incidents and near-misses, and run emergency drills.
- Partner with department leaders so safety is built into daily operations.
3. Environmental Stewardship
Your outcome: Waste, recycling and energy-use goals are met, and the site's environmental footprint is understood and shrinking.
- Run waste disposal, recycling and energy-reduction programs, and oversee environmental impact assessments and mitigation plans.
- Conduct regular site inspections and EHS audits, act on the recommendations, and keep operations aligned with our sustainability goals.
4. Training, Culture and Improvement
Your outcome: Employees are trained, certified and speaking up about hazards, and our EHS programs measurably improve every year.
- Deliver safety training, including OSHA certifications and job-specific training, and be the first-person employees come to with concerns.
- Build a safety-first culture through your leadership, engagement and clear communication.
- Assess program effectiveness, present monthly and annual improvement plans, and stay on top of emerging EHS practices and sustainability initiatives.
You also follow applicable standards, regulations, safety protocols and company conduct guidelines, and perform other duties as assigned.
Who Thrives Here
- Leader and collaborator: You work across the whole organization, delegate well, show initiative and ownership, and bring departments together to solve problems instead of dictating solutions. You are willing to mentor others.
