The posting

  • Procurement Strategy and Planning
  • Strategic Planning: Design, develop, and execute the overall procurement strategic planning process for the HBI project, aligning supply chain activities with the project’s Master Schedule and budget.
  • Risk Management: Lead contract and risk management activities for all major procurement packages, identifying, mitigating, and managing commercial risks across the global supply chain.
  • Global Sourcing: Leverage global supply chain knowledge to identify, evaluate, and qualify international vendors and suppliers for major equipment, bulk materials, and services.
  • Project Execution and Contract Management
  • Phase Management (Design to Operations): Direct procurement activities across all project phases, ensuring all purchase orders and contracts support the progression from initial design, engineering, construction, start-up, and future operations.
  • Vendor & Supplier Management: Implement a rigorous vendor and supplier management system, overseeing vendor pre-qualification, bid solicitation (RFQ/RFP), technical and commercial evaluation, and negotiation.
  • Delivery Management: Work closely with Project Control and Construction teams to ensure all materials and equipment deliveries are managed to meet schedule and deadlines, focusing on logistics, expediting, and inventory control.
  • Leadership and Team Integration
  • Team Leadership: Recruit, mentor, and manage the procurement team, fostering a high-performance culture focused on achieving cost-savings, on-time delivery, and quality compliance.
  • Project Team Environment: Demonstrate past experience of being part of projects from design to realisation within a project team environment, integrating the procurement function seamlessly with engineering, construction, and finance.
  • Cost Control & Budgeting
  • Collaborate with finance and project managers to manage procurement budgets.
  • Track and report on procurement expenditures and savings.
  • Compliance & Reporting
  • Ensure adherence to company policies, industry regulations, and ethical standards.

Maintain accurate procurement records and generate regular reports for senior management.

Job Knowledge/ Education/ Qualifications & Skills

  • Education and/or Experience: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Business Administration, Supply Chain Management, or a related field. Professional certifications (e.g., CPSM) are a plus. A minimum of 10–19+ years of progressive experience, with at least 5 years in a senior procurement leadership role on large-scale capital projects. Industry Experience: A proven track record in projects involving mining, processing, and metallurgical facilities is highly advantageous. Technology Experience: Experience working with major technology licensors and suppliers common in the DRI/HBI industry (e.g., Tenova, Midrex) is strongly preferred.
  • Technical Skills: Expert knowledge of various contracting strategies (Lump Sum, Cost Reimbursable, Unit Rate) and advanced negotiation skills.
  • Language: Fluency in English is mandatory. Multi-language skills are a significant advantage; proficiency in Azerbaijani, German, Italian, Chinese (Mandarin), or Russian is a definite asset due to the international nature of the supply chain. Location: full-time in Baku, Azerbaijan, but with business trips to required locations.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
