Location - This role is onsite at our Burr Ridge, IL facility and will require visits to our Elmhurst, IL facility

The Senior Health and Safety Manager will architect and champion Double Good's safety-first culture across our two Chicago-area popcorn manufacturing plants - designing programs, leading the hourly Safety Committee, and partnering with Operations to anticipate risk before it becomes incident.

Scope and Range:

You lead Health & Safety strategy and execution across two manufacturing facilities (Burr Ridge, IL and Elmhurst, IL) with regular partnership with our downtown Chicago corporate office. The role owns Workers' Compensation through our TPA, OSHA-facing reporting, site security, and emergency response. You also own day-to-day environmental compliance that lives within H&S (hazardous waste manifests, SDS management, SPCC awareness, environmental vendor management);

broader environmental scope sits with Operations and Facilities. You partner with Quality and Food Safety so H&S complements our GMP, HACCP, and FSMA programs.

Responsibilities:

Safety Program & Strategy

* Lead the design and continuous improvement of H&S programs, policies, and procedures across both plants - calibrated to the specific risks of food/snack manufacturing.

* Own the H&S scorecard: TRIR, DART, LTIR, severity, near-miss reporting rate, observation rate, training completion, and audit-closure SLA. Translate metrics into action plans the Operations leadership team can run with.

* Manage vendor relationships and service contracts (PPE, training, industrial hygiene, audit partners) and own the H&S budget.

* Stay ahead of OSHA, NFPA, EPA, and Illinois EPA changes; brief leadership on impact before regulation hits the floor.

Site-Level Risk Management

* Build risk-based audit and inspection programs tailored to each plant's footprint, equipment, and hazards.

* Lead Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs) and PPE assessments for every role on the floor; refresh on a defined cadence.

* Drive the technical program work that matters in popcorn/snack manufacturing - combustible dust (NFPA 652 / NFPA 61), flammable liquids handling (NFPA 30), static electricity controls (NFPA 77), powered industrial trucks (PIT/forklift), LOTO, machine guarding, confined space, hot work, packaging-line ergonomics, and chemical safety.

* Partner with Quality and Food Safety so H&S decisions complement (not conflict with) our GMP, HACCP, and FSMA programs.

Training & Engagement

* Identify training needs and build programs that are engaging, inclusive, and behavior-changing - for employees, supervisors, contractors, and visitors.

* Define high-risk training requirements and maintain company-wide training records.

* Chair the hourly-employee Safety Committee as the primary engine for proactive observations and peer-led safety conversations.

Incident Investigation & Workers' Compensation

* Lead investigations with rigorous root-cause analysis and time-bound corrective actions; track recurrence to zero.

* Serve as Double Good's primary contact with OSHA -…
