In this role, you will lead regional equipment balancing, empty repositioning, and depot vendor performance—ensuring optimal equipment availability while aggressively optimizing operational expenditure.
Responsibilities:
- Direct regional container flows across dry, reefer, or special equipment portfolios and maintain ideal stock balances across regional ports and depots while reducing dwell times and long-stay inventory
- Formulate and optimize empty container positioning strategies across feeder networks, land transportation, and main-haul vessel allocations without compromising laden capacity
- Supervise regional third-party depot networks and oversee maintenance and repair standards (IICL), managing specialized equipment workflows and conduct regular site audits
- Lead contract management for master, long-term, or spot leases or off-hire/on-hire programs
- Work with Principal's Equipment Management Team to execute re-delivery/off-hire strategies for leased units to minimize charges
- Take ownership of operational expenditure across depot handling, lease hire, and repositioning freight, while approving vendor invoices against contractual rates and verified operational logs

- Bachelor's Degree in Supply Chain, Maritime Studies, Logistics, or a related field.
- Ideally 8–10 years of progressive experience in container equipment flow, liner operations, or regional shipping logistics.
- Deep expertise in Asian regional port/terminal practices, IICL M&R standards, container leasing dynamics, and depot operations will be highly advantageous
- Strong track record in vendor negotiations, agency management, and regional cross-functional leadership.
- A data-driven problem solver with a strategic mindset on cost reduction, optimization and operational excellence
- A proactive, hands-on manager who thrives in fast-moving environments
