About The Position

We’re hiring an experienced and motivated HSE Advisor in our Guaynabo, PR office. Your role Lead day‑to‑day HSE execution on site by directing contractors and site personnel, setting clear safety expectations, and maintaining full control of safe work practices from shift start through task completion. Conduct and document daily toolbox talks, safety briefings, and HSE communications, ensuring risks, controls, PPE requirements, and work permits are clearly understood before work begins. Verify work readiness prior to execution by confirming training records, certifications, equipment inspections, permits, lift plans, and site conditions are fully compliant and approved. Actively monitor site activities and intervene immediately to correct unsafe acts or conditions, including stopping work when necessary to protect people, equipment, and the environment. Perform routine site safety inspections, audits, and walkdowns to identify hazards, verify controls, and ensure jobsite cleanliness, environmental protections, and equipment compliance are maintained. Ensure contractor HSE documentation is accurate, approved, and properly recorded within project systems, maintaining traceable and audit‑ready records throughout the project lifecycle. Enforce incident and near‑miss reporting requirements by ensuring prompt notification, accurate entry into Enablon, and participation in investigations through corrective action closure. Train, coach, and mentor site personnel and contractors on safe work practices, hazard identification, and Linxon HSE expectations, actively strengthening site safety culture through visible leadership. Monitor environmental and sustainability metrics such as safe work hours, fuel usage, waste segregation, and spill prevention controls to support regulatory compliance and sustainability objectives. Maintain emergency preparedness by ensuring emergency equipment, evacuation plans, and permit‑to‑work systems remain current, functional, and aligned with site conditions. Coordinate closely with construction, project management, engineering, and quality teams to align HSE controls with changing site activities and execution plans. Provide clear and accurate HSE reporting on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis and support internal, client, and regulatory audits and inspections as required.
