    What role you will play in our team
    • Reporting to the Area Project Procurement Manager, the Area PPA is the key point of contact for the brownfield site projects organization in their respective area (e.g. all projects at Baton Rouge brownfield site; all projects in Guyana's brownfield sites; etc) and serves as the Procurement focal point for all activities relating to contracting/subcontracting, equipment and materials purchasing, expediting, logistics, site materials management activities, and construction
    • Depending on project strategy, the Area PPA may oversee the activities of an EPC Procurement and/or in-house Procurement organization

    What you will do

As the Project nears execution phase, the Area PPA will shift to oversight of purchasing / subcontracting execution by the EPC contractor and/or in-house procurement group, ensuring effective progression of the endorsed project purchasing and materials management strategies. Thus, focus areas and activities of the Area PPA will shift depending on the current stage of the Project:
    • Participate in the early project strategy, risk assessment and planning workshops with Project team to define and select strategies such as Project Execution, Contracting Strategy and Materials Management Strategies
    • Compile project equipment list and major subcontract list, with associated commercial strategies, aligned bidder(s) lists, target schedules for bid and award, and key evaluation criteria
    • Lead efforts to obtain and communicate global market intel and project sourcing best practices to project team; engage with EM Global Procurement (Equipment & Materials, Global Sourcing, etc. to support)
    • Finalize Long Lead Equipment (LLE) list and procurement schedule, incorporating considerations such as lead time, construction sequence or early vendor data needs. Lead execution of LLE purchase commitments
    • Finalize project equipment list and major subcontract list, including associated commercial strategies, aligned bidder(s) lists, schedules for bid and award, and key evaluation criteria
    • Ensure Project team is ready for execution of full equipment list upon Project Full Funding
    • Oversee execution of procurement activities for full slate of equipment list, from package preparation to bidding, evaluation, award, expediting, logistics execution and delivery to site
    • Leverage relationships with supplier community and Category Management to escalate and mitigate order execution issues in a timely and effective manner
    • Ensure effective closeout of Procurement activities and capture lessons learned for communication to Projects and Procurement
    To effectively deliver the above, the PPA may occasionally work co-located with project teams at the EPC contractor's offices, or may be required to travel to project sites, field offices, vendor manufacturing sites, etc. Global Projects Procurement and Global Projects collaborate with teams around the world to deliver projects.
