  • Financial Oversight: Facilitate monthly stock committee meetings and execute reconciliation processes to safeguard company assets.
  • Transport Optimization: Plan and monitor product deliveries while updating freight rates and facilitating the vetting of chartered barges.
  • Safety Leadership: Champion a "Safety First" culture by ensuring all contractors comply with strict HSEQ policies and participate in weekly toolbox meetings.
Key Requirements
We are looking for a seasoned professional who brings a blend of technical expertise and leadership experience:

  • While not mandatory, a background in fuel supply, lubrication, or transportation is highly favorable.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence, convince, and negotiate within a competitive market environment.
  • Excellent organizational and analytical skills to provide statistical analysis on transport optimization and forecasting.
  • Familiarity with Dangerous Goods Handling (certification is a plus) and a deep commitment to HSEQ laws and regulations.
