Supply Manager at Fadac Resources

About the Role

Our client is a group of companies in Nigeria. Due to expansion, they are seeking a Supply Manager to join their team in Lagos.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and own a rolling 3–6‑month supply plan (volumes by product/grade, by source/depot/terminal) aligned to sales forecast, inventory policies, and turnaround schedules
• Run monthly reports with Sales/Finance/Operations; reconcile demand signals, constraints, and supply scenarios (base/optimistic/constrained)
• Evaluate and recommend sourcing options (local vs. import, index vs. fixed, cargo parcelization) to achieve optimal netback/landed cost
• Support negotiation of spot/term supply contracts, pricing formulas (e.g., Platts + premium), and service level provisions (incoterms, laytime, demurrage caps)
• Optimize truck turn‑around times (TTT), transport allocation, and route planning to reduce stock‑outs and secondary distribution cost
• Interface daily with depots/tank farms and transporters; resolve dispatch issues, prioritize critical stations/customers, and communicate ETAs
• Monitor stock levels, ullage, and in‑transit quantities across locations; trigger replenishment per policy
• Lead daily/weekly reconciliations (book vs. physical, terminal loss/gain), variance analyses, and corrective actions
• Ensure all importation/local supply activities meet regulatory requirements (permits, DPR/NMDPRA approvals, SONCAP where applicable)
• Liaise with inspection agencies and regulators; prepare responses for audits and ensure adherence to HSE, weights & measures, and tax rules
• Track landed cost drivers (premiums, freight, demurrage, storage, handling, throughput, transport, losses) and implement savings initiatives
• Reduce demurrage and detention through proactive laytime management and slot optimization; escalate port/depot constraints early
• Maintain supplier and transporter performance KPIs; drive corrective actions or re‑tendering as needed

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Supply Chain, or related field
