Kelly Mikkelson

Associate, Corporate Project & Risk Manager at RDH

Kelly is a Canadian Registered Safety Professional (CRSP) with more than 10 years of Health and Safety (H&S) management experience across multiple industries, including Oil and Gas, Mining, and Construction. Since Kelly joined RDH in 2017 as our corporate H&S Manager, her role has evolved and grown to her current position as Corporate Project and Risk Manager.

Kelly remains responsible for the management and continuous improvement of our Corporate H&S Program, with additional responsibilities related to our broader risk program, including insurance and contract management. For the Corporate Project portion of her role and at the request of the Corporate Management Team (CMT), she is also responsible for managing and implementing substantial cross-functional projects and projects that do not fit easily under an existing department or team (e.g., Project Information Management and Knowledge Management). Additionally, Kelly is a resource for RDH’s other project managers to ensure that all necessary cross-functional steps and business process review/re-development tasks have been completed throughout a project’s life cycle.

During Kelly’s time at RDH, she’s led or played a critical role in several initiatives, including implementing our Learning and Development program and our learning management system, updating our intranet site, and overhauling our Occupational Health and Safety program. Each of these initiatives support RDH’s employees and project teams to become more knowledgeable, have access to critical tools and information they need to do their jobs properly, and to ensure our systems are both efficient and compliant.
