Process Safety Specialist
Gables Search Group
Fort Wayne, IN
Our recruiting firm is partnering with a client to hire a Process Safety Management (PSM) Specialist. This position can be based in Fort Wayne, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, or Eastern Michigan and is less customer-facing and more technical, so it's ideal for someone who enjoys detailed, independent work while supporting compliance in industrial refrigeration and chemical processes.
What You’ll Do
Read and interpret piping & instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs)
Draft and review standard operating procedures (SOPs)
Support PSM elements such as PHAs, MOCs, mechanical integrity inspections, and incident investigations
Conduct internal audits and ensure compliance with OSHA 1910.119 and EPA RMP standards
Provide clear SOPs and guidance for employees with less technical backgrounds
Perform plant walk-throughs when needed, including climbing ladders for inspections
What You’ll Bring
Mechanical aptitude with ability to understand refrigeration systems and blueprints
Experience in occupational safety, process safety, or as a service technician with interest in compliance
Strong attention to detail, organization, and independent work style
Ability to draft clear technical documentation
Education in engineering technology, process safety, or equivalent hands-on experience (degree not required)
RETA, OSHA 10/30, or similar certifications are a plus
Why This Role Stands Out
$50,000–$85,000 based on experience
Work-life balance compared to service technician roles
Collaborative culture with training and career growth opportunities
Company vehicle may be provided depending on travel needs
If you’re detail-oriented, mechanically minded, and ready to build your career in process safety, we’d like to share your background with our client.
