I would add to the beackground requirement an academic qualification or equivalent industrial experience with the basic vocabulary of safety, including hazard analysis, risk analysis, accident and incident analysis, trend identification and monitoring, safety case construction and maintenance.

I would add to the responsilities requirements to (build and) perform and maintain operational hazard and risk analyses and an incident reporting *and analysis* system, continuing trend identification, and maintenance of the operational safety case.

I wouldn't employ anybody who had not demonstrated capability in those areas.
