Job Title: Head of Operations
Location: Paris, France
Overview
Our client, an expanding LNG and methanol fuel‑powered tanker operator, seeks a qualified Head of Operations to lead post‑fixture commercial operations across its fleet.
Responsibilities

Own post‑fixture operations: charter party administration, claims, and contract compliance.
Coordinate daily with charterer operations teams, terminals, agents, and third‑party managers to ensure terminal compatibility.
Monitor voyage KPIs, off‑hires, stoppages/delays; manage fuel performance, warranties and close claims.
Analyse vessel performance (incl. platform‑driven insights) to highlight underperformance and drive improvement.
Drive operational excellence across all ship‑operations segments with continuous improvement at the heart of day‑to‑day operations.
Maintain dynamic/static vessel documents; oversee reimbursables, insurance certificates, and quality systems.

Qualifications

Operations Manager (or equivalent) ready to step up to department lead in an owner/manager environment.
Sailing background preferred (Master/Chief Mate); LNG/tanker post‑fixture expertise essential.
Hands‑on, adaptable, determined; clear command/support mindset (operations lead, not a brokerage/trading role).
Strong stakeholder management; capable of guiding, coaching, and making assured, timely decisions.

Benefits

High‑impact leadership role reporting to the Directeur Général of the company.
Authority to shape processes and drive continuous improvement across a growing fleet.

Opportunity to build a successful team and deliver improved commercial and operational outcomes.
