Textile waste is a growing global challenge. Syre’s mission is to decarbonize and dewaste textiles, starting with the world's biggest fiber, polyester. By implementing true textile-to-textile recycling at hyperscale, we want to drive the transition from a linear to a circular value chain by putting textile waste to use, over and over again.

  • Investigate workplace accidents, incidents, and near misses, identifying root causes and implementing corrective actions.
  • Provide training to employees on safety procedures, emergency response, and environmental policies.
  • Collaborate with plant management and across the company to promote a culture of safety, health, and environmental responsibility.
  • Manage safety data sheets (SDS), hazardous material programs, and waste management systems.
  • Prepare and submit reports on environmental and safety performance to regulatory agencies and senior management.
  • Lead emergency response teams and coordinate drills and preparedness initiatives.
  • Stay current with industry trends, regulatory changes, and best practices in EHS.
  • Foster continuous improvement by driving EHS initiatives, performance metrics, and corrective actions.

We would prefer if you have/are

  • Bachelor’s degree in Occupational Safety, Environmental Science, Industrial Hygiene, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in EHS management, preferably in a chemical manufacturing or industrial plant setting.
  • In-depth knowledge of OSHA, EPA, and other environmental and safety regulations
  • Experience with PHAs, LOPAs, HAZOP, MOC, and PSSR programs
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to drive results and make data-driven decisions.
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills, with experience managing cross-functional teams.
  • Certification in safety (CSP, CIH, or CHMM) is a plus.
  • Fluent in English both orally and in writing (professional English required)

You will be reporting to the Plant Manager and the position is full-time, on-site at our Cedar Creek, NC plant with occasional travel to our Mebane, NC R&D facility as well as occasional international travel.
