- Support a safe, compliant working environment that remains inspection-ready.

- Work with the line manager to support ongoing development and career progression.
- Follow safe working practices and act with care for your own safety, as well as that of colleagues and clients, in line with company policies.
- Comply fully with the Code of Integrity and with SGS Ireland’s Equality & Diversity policy.
