2 days ago


Central Region, Singapore Talent Trader Group Pte Ltd Full time $150,000 - $200,000 per year

Chartering & Vessel Management

  • 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.
  • Coordinate internal and third-party technical inspections to uncover latent risks and recommend required refurbishments or dockyard interventions.
  • Strategize vessel disposals and decommissioning based on lifecycle cost analysis, route shifts, or market dynamics, including scrap value estimation.
  • Track chartered vessel redelivery schedules, issuing notices where necessary for early termination due to suboptimal performance.

Regulatory Compliance & Risk Management

  • Ensure vessel operations meet international maritime standards such as MARPOL (pollution prevention) and SOLAS (safety at sea), including vessel retrofit evaluations.
  • Monitor developments in environmental legislation and ship recycling protocols to inform asset retirement plans.
  • Mitigate legal risks by maintaining thorough documentation of vessel performance to support potential re-charter disputes or claims.

Requirements:

  • Bachelors or master's degree in Shipping business, supply chain management, or a related field.
  • At least 10 years of experience in procurement or a shipping related field, with a track record of driving process improvements and cost savings.
  • Leadership skills to manage cross-functional teams and complex projects.
  • Excellent communication skills for effective negotiation and relationship building.
