(Associate) Scientist Process Safety

(Associate) Scientist Process Safety With our comprehensive range of solutions, with natural and renewable ingredients and renowned science and technology capabilities, we work to create what is essential for life, desirable for consumers, and more sustainable for the planet. With a diverse, worldwide team of nearly 30,000 employees, we bring progress to life™ every day, everywhere, for billions of people. Diversity, Equity & Inclusion is a shared responsibility woven into our daily work to not only benefit our People, Customers & Communities but also drive business value. Equal access to opportunities is a given, belonging is a shared feeling, authenticity is celebrated. As a successful applicant, you will join our multi-disciplinary team in our Science & Research Process Safety Laboratory located in La Plaine, Geneva. You will ensure systematic assessment of industrial risks as emphasis is on the data determination and its use for the design of safe process. In other words, you will be responsible to lead risk analysis -or supply support- of different kind of chemical processes (new innovative process based on continuous, batch, and semi-batch operations, existing process to be optimized, process utilizing powder technologies ) understand the thermal aspects of processes and perform a practically oriented assessment of chemical process safety in accordance with the production transfer schedule in coordination with the pilot and production teams. Fluency in both English and French is required. Provide technical expertise during risk analysis studies (HAZOP, What-if, LOPA, etc.) and closely monitor procedures to identify and mitigate hazards related to the development of new processes to manufacture specialty chemicals. This includes following risk analysis action lists, interpreting laboratory results to meet internal client needs, prioritizing requests based on team workload, and supporting HSE and expert teams in transferring new processes from pilot scale to production. Be proactive and act as a reference in technical subjects that include chemical hazard assessment, explosion risk assessment, and risk analysis. Participate actively to progress meetings for projects and new chemical development steps. Implement process safety strategies within global R&D activities and provide robust expertise to support projects at various sites in other countries, including process transfers. Interpreting thermal data from laboratory process safety reports, including DSC, C80, ARC, AKTS, powder assessment, and other physicochemical data, to ensure the proper progression of risk analyses.
