About Steve Maddison
With over two decades of experience in the international oil and gas industry, I have established myself as a senior leader in Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) management. My career is marked by a proven track record of driving substantial improvements in system development, reducing injuries and incidents, empowering major organizations to achieve their EHS objectives, and enhancing individual accountability.I possess expertise in Human and Organizational Performance (HOP) integration, underpinned by a comprehensive understanding of a systems approach to safety management. This strategic insight allows me to design and implement sophisticated safety management systems that not only mitigate risks but also foster a culture of continuous improvement and operational excellence.A key area of my expertise lies in transitioning organizations from reactive, compliance-based cultures to proactive, capacity-based models. This transformation results in first-quartile resilient and robust system-based performance, ensuring that organizations not only comply with regulations but also excel in their safety and environmental standards.Strong commercial acumen bolsters my ability to seamlessly align EHS plans and strategies with overarching business objectives. I have successfully led high-performing, cross-functional teams, ensuring they can respond to a wide array of incidents, meet challenging KPIs, and achieve stringent compliance with EHS regulations.In my role, I have consistently provided strategic guidance on developing and implementing robust EHS processes and controls. My background in Emergency Response and Security provision gained through service in the UK Fire & Rescue Service, and the Parachute Regiment has been instrumental in shaping my approach to safety in the oil and gas sector.As a senior leader, I am continually seeking to expand my professional network within the Oil & Gas industry and the broader field of environmental, health, and safety management. If you are interested in discussing future industry developments or potential collaborations, please contact me at I look forward to the opportunity to connect and collaborate on strategic initiatives.
