• Maintain the Overall Shipment Tracker and ensure logistics milestones, shipment references, dates and status are accurate, current and communicated promptly.
• Prepare transport RFQs and analyse quotations for price, routing, transit time, validity, exclusions and surcharges; challenge unsuitable or non-competitive solutions and support shipment cost control.
• Coordinate OOG / project cargo requirements with Engineering, vendors and logistics providers, including dimensions, weights, COG, lifting points, handling requirements, transport studies, permits and route constraints where applicable.
• Coordinate shipping and customs documentation with vendors, freight forwarders and customs representatives; verify document completeness and escalate customs, compliance or release risks before dispatch.
• Coordinate shipment priorities and delivery sequence with Expediting, Procurement, Engineering, Construction and Site; escalate readiness, documentation, transport or delivery risks that may affect the project schedule.
• Support logistics KPI reporting, including RFQ turnaround, RTF-to-booking, ETD vs ATD, ETA vs ATA, customs clearance, documentation completeness and logistics-provider performance.
• Provide temporary site support to the Warehouse / Materials Manager in Norway when required, for up to approximately 10 weeks per year, including incoming transport coordination, unloading planning, receipt follow-up and OS&D support.
