Responsibilities

Environmental Monitoring & Compliance Implementation

Conduct routine environmental monitoring and site inspections covering air, water, soil, and other key indicators.
Lead sampling campaigns, waste audits, and related field activities across Bapco Energies facilities.
Analyze monitoring data to identify trends, non‑compliance, or exceedances, and escalate issues for timely corrective action.
Support environmental permitting by gathering and organizing required technical data for emissions, effluent, and waste-related applications.
Ensure day‑to‑day operational compliance with permit conditions and environmental regulations.
Participate in internal and external audits, provide evidence of compliance, and support the implementation of corrective actions.

Environmental Impact Assessment & Mitigation

Support and facilitate Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) and the development of project-specific Environmental Management Plans.
Conduct baseline environmental studies and risk assessments to evaluate potential impacts of new projects or operational modifications.
Identify and recommend mitigation measures to minimize impacts on biodiversity, land, air, and water.
Lead technical activities related to soil and groundwater protection, including containment design, monitoring, and remediation guidance. Coordinate biodiversity assessments and contribute to the development and deployment of the Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP).

Pollution Prevention & Resource Efficiency Projects

Lead or contribute to pollution prevention, resource efficiency, and circularity initiatives across operations.
Support waste management improvements by identifying ways to reduce waste, enhance segregation and recycling, and ensure safe disposal.
Collaborate with emissions management teams on energy efficiency enhancements and emissions reduction technologies (e.g., methane capture, flaring reduction).
Support water conservation projects by identifying opportunities for water reuse, recycling, and reducing losses through leak detection and system improvements.
Pilot new technologies, monitoring tools, or process improvements and assess their environmental performance benefits.
Technical Documentation & Reporting:
Prepare and maintain technical documentation on environmental compliance and performance, including updated GHG inventories.
Document methodologies used in emissions and environmental calculations to ensure transparency and audit readiness.
Develop technical reports, presentations, and data summaries for internal and external stakeholders.
Contribute to regulatory submissions such as emissions monitoring reports, waste summaries, and environmental performance updates.
Provide technical support to the Environmental Manager in responding to regulatory inquiries, investor questions, or inspections.
Cross-Functional Collaboration & Advisory:
Work closely with Operations, Maintenance, and Projects teams to integrate environmental requirements into day‑to‑day activities and new developments.
Provide engineering advice on process modifications, spill prevention practices, waste handling, and pollution control measures.
Ensure environmental safeguards such as effluent treatment, emission controls, and secondary containment systems are reflected in engineering designs.
Coordinate with Health & Safety on matters related to chemical handling, spill response, and incident preparedness.
Engage external consultants and laboratories for specialized assessments (e.g., dispersion modelling, noise surveys) and ensure quality of outputs.
Support stakeholder engagement by providing environmental data and technical clarifications for communication materials or community discussions.
Continuous Improvement & Innovation
Identify opportunities to improve monitoring systems, environmental calculations, and operational practices.
Stay current with industry trends, technological advancements, and best practices in environmental engineering and sustainability.
Lead or participate in pilot projects exploring innovative environmental solutions (e.g., bioremediation, drone-based monitoring).
Promote environmental awareness through toolbox talks, knowledge-sharing sessions, and contributions to internal training.
Capture lessons learned from audits, incidents, or near misses, and integrate them into revised procedures and improved environmental performance.
