Plant Operations
ESG, HSE and Governance
ESG refers to the three key criteria used to assess a company’s sustainability and societal impact, including Environmental factors, Social considerations, and Governance practices. HSE, on the other hand, focuses on implementing policies and procedures to protect the health, safety, and environment of employees and contractors. The systems and processes that oversee the decision-making and overall management of the plant to ensure responsible and ethical operations come under Governance.
To excel in ESG, HSE, and Governance roles, candidates must possess excellent communication, analytical, and leadership abilities. A thorough understanding of sustainability, health & safety regulations and governance principles is also crucial. Key skills include risk management, data analysis, and stakeholder engagement.

Production, Quality, Asset/Material Management
In the context of a plant operation, production refers to the systematic creation of goods and services. Quality management involves ensuring that the end products meet or exceed customer expectations through the implementation of effective quality control measures. Asset/material management is a critical aspect that entails the optimal utilisation and maintenance of physical resources, such as equipment and supplies, to maintain smooth operations and minimise waste.
Individuals working in production, quality, and asset/material management in plant operations must possess a combination of technical and interpersonal skills. This includes proficiency in project management, process improvement, and data analysis, as well as strong organisational, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills. Technical expertise in areas such as manufacturing processes, quality control techniques, and asset/materials management systems is also necessary for success in these roles.
