Senior Expeditor

Intro information

Are you ready to take your career as an Expeditor to the next level? Our client is looking for an experienced and proactive Expeditor to play a key role in the successful execution of complex offshore projects.

You will be part of a project procurement team consisting of approximately 3 to 7 colleagues. In addition, you will belong to the wider Procurement department, which includes around 35 to 40 professionals. As our client works in a matrix organization, you will collaborate closely with multidisciplinary departments and make use of the available expertise within EPC offshore projects. The working environment is professional, dynamic, and results‑driven.

The team has an open and friendly atmosphere, with a strong focus on collaboration, ownership, and getting things done.

In this position, you will be responsible for monitoring the progress of purchase orders after they have been awarded and ensuring that materials, documents, services, and related deliverables are provided on time.

Your coordination, clear communication, and problem‑solving skills will help prevent delays and ensure that the construction schedule can continue as planned.

You will organize and lead supplier meetings, including kick‑off meetings, pre‑inspection meetings, and progress meetings. During these meetings, you will review delivery schedules, inspection plans, progress reports, and critical sub‑orders. You will make sure that suppliers meet their obligations and that all relevant information is shared clearly with internal project teams.

A key part of your role will involve managing and checking supplier documentation, invoices, bank guarantees, inspection reports, and other quality‑related documents. In close cooperation with the Inspection team, you will coordinate inspection visits and support the release of materials for transport to the construction site. You will also ensure that inspection reports and required quality documents are received, reviewed, and approved in time.

By keeping progress data accurate and up to date in the relevant systems, you will create transparency throughout the delivery process. Your work will provide project teams with a clear overview of supplier performance, potential bottlenecks, and upcoming actions.
