**Job Description**

**Position Summary**

We are seeking an experienced **Process Safety Lead** to provide site leadership for Process Safety Engineering during the commissioning, start-up, transition and early operational phases of the NEOM Green Hydrogen Project.

The role will provide a strong link between engineering design, field modifications, commissioning, operations and safety-management systems. The successful candidate will lead the practical implementation of process-safety requirements at site, ensuring that hazards and changes are appropriately assessed, actions are driven to closure, and process-safety requirements are embedded before systems transition into operation.

The position is particularly important as the project moves toward hazardous inventories and operating conditions where robust process-safety management and emergency readiness become critical.

**Key Responsibilities**

- Support Operational readiness inspections, Field change notes reviews, and Emergency Management Plan activities.
- Coordinate Process Safety Information, operating readiness and management-system requirements associated with hazardous materials.
- Support training and competency development for engineering, commissioning and operations personnel.
- Coordinate Design Near Miss initiatives and ensure timely follow-up and closure of associated actions.

- Ensure HCIS Safety and Fire protection compliance across the project sites.
- Review field changes and modifications for potential Process Safety consequences before implementation.
- Ensure changes are reflected in applicable hazard assessments and Process Safety Information.

**Qualifications**

- Bachelor's degree in **Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering** or a closely related engineering discipline.
- Minimum of 10 years of experience in Industry
- Strong professional experience in Process Safety within **major process, chemical, energy, hydrogen, ammonia, oil & gas or petrochemical facilities.**
- Demonstrable experience working on m**ajor-project commissioning, start-up and/or operating facilities**.
- Practical experience of Process Hazard Analysis and process-safety risk assessment.
- Working knowledge of Process Safety Management frameworks and hazardous-process facilities.
- Ability to work effectively across engineering, construction, commissioning, operations and safety organizations.

**Preferred Experience**

- Hands-on experience facilitating **HAZOP and LOPA** workshops.
- Experience with Management of Change and field-change risk assessment.
- Experience supporting commissioning and operational-readiness programmes.
- Experience with **hydrogen, ammonia or other highly hazardous chemical facilities would be highly valuable.**
- Previous **Middle East or Saudi Arabia major-project/site experience would be advantageous.**
- Experience taking process-safety recommendations from identification through practical field implementation and verified closure.
