Supply Chain & Production Manager

Are you Aziwell’s new Supply Chain & Production Manager?

Our vision is to build the world’s most trusted ecosystem for intelligent, directional drilling, and we are looking for a Supply Chain & Production Manager to strengthen our operational backbone as we continue to scale globally.

We develop and deliver advanced downhole products and services for mining and infrastructure projects, drawing on deep technological expertise that also overlaps with solutions traditionally used in oil and gas. As our global project portfolio expands, so does the need for a tightly coordinated supply chain and production operation that delivers the right parts, at the right quality, in the right quantity, at the right time — wherever in the world they are needed.

As Supply Chain & Production Manager, you will have overall responsibility for our supply chain and production operations, with a particular focus on the Norwegian entity while also driving improvements across our global operations. You will lead four key functions:
Assembly & Warehouse, Logistics, Procurement, and Quality Control. Your mandate is to ensure that our sourcing, production, logistics, and quality systems are efficient, scalable, and aligned with the demands of a growing international business.

This is a hands‑on leadership role with real operational ownership and a direct line to the executive team.

Commercial awareness and the ability to connect supply chain and production performance to financial outcomes

The authority and decisiveness to set clear priorities and make difficult calls under pressure

Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build trust and alignment across functions, regions, and cultures

Proficiency in Norwegian and English, both written and spoken

The position reports to the Chief Operating Officer. The role is based at the company’s headquarters in Trondheim. Some travel should be expected in connection with supplier management and coordination of global operations.
