This role is essential to ensuring vessels receive the correct spares and consumables at the right place, time, and cost to support safe, reliable, and uninterrupted operations.

It requires proven commercial and technical experience in the maritime industry, particularly supporting oil and gas tanker vessels through purchasing, sourcing, logistics coordination, and customs clearance.
