ABOUT CRAIG KERR
I am a senior strategic HSSE leader specialising in safety assurance, risk governance and human factors integration across safety-critical and complex operational environments, including rail and aviation.My work centres on strengthening how organisations understand risk, make decisions and sustain performance across health, safety, security and environmental domains. I operate at the intersection of governance, operational reality and human performance, aligning people, systems and culture to build resilient, high-reliability organisations.Throughout my career, I have led enterprise safety and HSSE strategy, governance and assurance within large, distributed operations, delivering mature Safety Management System (SMS) frameworks, embedding proportionate control environments and supporting executive leaders with clear, balanced insight into organisational risk and operational health.I am particularly experienced in driving strategic improvement while maintaining operational focus — ensuring that safety, security and environmental stewardship are positioned not as constraints, but as enablers of reliability, performance, public trust and long-term resilience.My experience includes:• Enterprise HSSE strategy and governance• Risk-based assurance and control effectiveness• Safety Management System design and optimisation• Major incident leadership and organisational learning• Security, operational risk and resilience oversight• Human Factors integration and non-technical skills development• Fatigue risk and human performance• Data-led performance improvement• Inclusive leadership and senior stakeholder engagementAlongside my corporate leadership experience, I also provide independent advisory support to organisations seeking to strengthen safety capability, enhance governance and assurance maturity, or navigate complex risk environments.I am motivated by environments that demand thoughtful leadership, balanced judgement and strategic clarity, and I am at my best when helping organisations translate strategic ambition into safe, secure and sustainable operational reality.
