Job Description:

As a Logistics Project Manager at Siemens Energy, you are the architect of the "last-mile" success for complex energy infrastructure. You will lead the onshore logistics lifecycle across Nigeria, ensuring that critical components—from sensitive electronics to massive heavy-lift turbines—move from port to site with surgical precision.

2. Technical Logistics & Heavy-Lift Management

• Inland Transportation: Lead the logistics of "Out of Gauge" (OOG) and heavy-lift cargo, including route assessments, securing special permits, and coordinating security escorts.

• Warehouse Stewardship: Oversee receipt, inventory control, and specialized preservation for sensitive energy equipment.

• Shipment Optimization: Design multimodal strategies (Consolidation, Containerization) to reduce transit times and operational expenditures without compromising safety.

3. Trade Compliance & Stakeholder Synergy

• Documentation Mastery: Coordinate the complex requirements for Form M and IDEC (Import Duty Exemption Certificate) to ensure smooth regulatory flow.

• Vendor Ecosystem: Act as the primary interface for freight forwarders, warehouse operators, and specialized transporters, leading coordination meetings and performance reviews.

• Cross-Functional Liaison: Collaborate with Engineering, Procurement, and Site Teams to resolve documentation gaps before they impact delivery timelines.
