Identify and assess potential vessel acquisitions, particularly older tonnage, by analyzing shipbroker intelligence, market listings, and competitor activity.
Evaluate vessels' operational readiness, trading history, classification, and technical condition, including any mechanical or structural concerns.
Lead negotiations for charter agreements (e.g., NYPE, Baltime), including rate structures, off-hire clauses, speed warranties, and fuel terms, adjusted for past vessel performance.
Develop vessel shortlists aligned with trade route needs, considering specifications such as draft limitations, cargo capacity, and reefer plug availability, with support from shipping indices.
Finalize charter arrangements with cost transparency, incorporating proforma budgeting for bunkers, port fees, hull cleaning, and other relevant components.
Manage end-to-end vessel sale and purchase processes using recognized documentation (e.g., Norwegian Saleform), including valuation, negotiation, and closing.

At least 10 years of experience in procurement or a shipping related field, with a track record of driving process improvements and cost savings.
