We are looking for a skilled and experienced Group Head of Supply Chain to lead our global supply chain operations. In this role, you will be responsible for overseeing and optimising the entire supply chain process within DOF. This Corporate role requires a strategic leader with extensive experience in Supply Chain Management (SCM) and project sourcing, particularly within the oil and gas industry or large-scale service delivery businesses. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of driving efficiency, reducing costs, and improving service levels. 

Responsibilities: 

• Develop and implement global supply chain strategies that align with the company's overall business objectives
• Oversee the entire supply chain process, including procurement, logistics, inventory management, and distribution
• Ownership of sustainable SCM processes guided by UN global compact
• Manage supply base governed by robust sourcing strategies

This is a high-impact leadership role where you will shape operational efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and service excellence across the organization. You will collaborate closely with our regional teams and functional EVPs, and report directly to the CEO.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, or a related field. A Master’s degree or professional certification (e.g., CSCP, CPSM) is preferred
• 10+ years of experience in SCM, with at least 5 years in a leadership role. Experience in the oil and gas industry or major service delivery business is highly desirable
• Strong leadership and management skills
• Excellent negotiation and communication abilities
• Experience managing subcontractors and navigating complex operational challenges
• Great analytical and strategic thinking skills
• Proficiency in supply chain software and tools

Is this the perfect role for you, but you don’t meet every single requirement? Our culture of innovation is built on valuing the right person for the role over a perfect alignment with a job description. Not least because research tells us women and minorities are unlikely to apply if they aren’t able to match all the role requirements listed. Building a diverse, inclusive, and positive workplace is important to DOF, so we say, apply for the role – it’s the best way to find the right person for this or other roles - and that could be you.

Location
