Background

About Christopher Hicks

I’m a results-driven safety leader with over 20 years of experience managing complex environmental, health, and safety (EHS) operations across military, tech, and industrial environments. After leading large-scale safety programs for Amazon and JLL, I’m now fully focused on advancing my career in occupational safety. Currently completing my Master of Science in Occupational Safety Management at Embry-Riddle, I specialize in OSHA compliance, safety auditing, risk assessments, and safety culture transformation across multi-site operations. My background includes managing EHS programs for over 30 sites in high-volume logistics, corporate, and manufacturing environments. As a veteran and former Director of Corporate Safety and Regional and Corporate Safety Manager, I bring leadership under pressure, data-informed decision-making, and a deep commitment to protecting people, operations, and reputation. I hold OSHA 30 (Construction & General Industry), HAZWOPER 40, and I’m pursuing the Certified Safety Professional (CSP) certification. I’m seeking new opportunities to lead safety and compliance programs in dynamic, high-growth organizations that value proactive safety leadership and strategic EHS innovation.
