A Day in the Role
On Monday, you’ll pull air, water, waste, and chemical handling data from our sites, translating metrics into insights that guide environmental performance. Midweek, you’re side‑by‑side with operations to fine‑tune processes—reducing waste, improving energy efficiency, and reinforcing ISO 14001 practices. You’ll review evolving regulations, refresh procedures, and prepare evidence for upcoming audits. Before week’s end, you’ll complete supplier sustainability questionnaires, verify export control documentation for ITAR, and align with procurement, quality, and sales to ensure customer forms are accurate and on time.
