About This Role

This role is pivotal in ensuring the safety and security of Lime's operations across NA, LATAM, and APAC. You will lead regional EHS initiatives and globally standardize site security, directly impacting employee well-being and operational resilience in a fast-paced, multi-site environment.

💡 A Day in the Life

You might start your day by reviewing safety metrics and incident reports from warehouses in the US and Latin America, then jump on a call with a regional manager to discuss a regulatory update in APAC. Afternoon could involve drafting a new security standard for global implementation or collaborating with operations teams to address a specific safety concern at a local facility.

  • Experienced in EHS management in a multi-site, fast-paced environment, with a strong understanding of regulatory compliance across multiple regions.
  • A practical problem solver who can balance immediate operational needs with long-term scalable solutions.

  • Knowledgeable in security governance and risk mitigation, with a proactive approach to protecting assets and facilities.

Show your ability to work independently as an individual contributor, emphasizing your problem-solving and initiative.
