 Position Overview
The HSEQ Officer at Enova Abu Dhabi is a critical field-based role that bridges the gap between site operations and the central HSEQ department. You will be the primary HSEQ point of contact across assigned project sites — conducting inspections, supporting risk assessments, investigating incidents, managing Permit to Work compliance, delivering staff inductions, and ensuring all subcontractor activities meet Enova’s stringent HSEQ requirements.
This is a genuinely multi-disciplinary role spanning health and safety, environmental compliance, energy management, quality systems, and facility management standards — all underpinned by Enova’s comprehensive IMS framework covering ISO 9001, 14001, 45001, and 50001. With ADOSH certification mandatory and NEBOSH IGC preferred, this role is designed for an experienced HSEQ professional ready to take ownership of multi-site safety compliance in one of Abu Dhabi’s most respected facility and energy management organizations.
 Why This Role Matters: In facility and energy management, the HSEQ Officer is the daily guardian of workforce safety, environmental compliance, and service quality across all project sites. At Enova, this role carries real operational authority — from issuing Stop Work Cards for unsafe practices to leading incident investigations, managing subcontractor compliance, and driving continuous IMS improvements. In Abu Dhabi’s demanding regulatory environment, where ADOSH compliance is mandatory and client expectations are high, the HSEQ Officer is indispensable to Enova’s operational license and reputation.

- Assist in the provision of training and awareness programs on IMS policies, procedures, and guidelines — preparing relevant training materials to ensure consistent standards awareness across all project teams.
- Ensure all third-party training records are maintained on-site as per local regulations and company best practices — including First Aid, Fire Fighting, MEWP licenses, scaffold inspector qualifications, and other mandatory certifications.
