Job Duties:

Tracking Orders and Deliveries

An expeditor ensures that materials, equipment, or services are delivered on time. They monitor purchase orders and follow up with suppliers to avoid delays.

Supplier Coordination

They act as the link between the company and suppliers—checking progress, confirming timelines, and resolving issues that could impact delivery.

Schedule Management

Expeditors make sure procurement aligns with the project schedule. If something is late, they escape and push for faster turnaround.

Problem Solving

When delays or shortages occur, the expeditor finds solutions—alternative suppliers, revised delivery plans, or prioritising critical items.

Documentation & Reporting

They maintain records of orders, delivery dates, and supplier performance, and provide regular updates to project managers or procurement teams.

Quality & Compliance Checks

In some roles, they verify that goods meet required specifications before dispatch or upon arrival.

Site Coordination (in construction/projects)

They ensure materials arrive at the right place, at the right time, and in the correct quantities to avoid site downtime.

Diploma or certificate in Supply Chain Management, Logistics or Procurement

Experience:

• 5 Years experience as an expeditor in mining is a must

• Excellent follow-up and persistence
