Commercial Superintendent
We are seeking an experienced Commercial Superintendent to oversee the commercial performance, operational efficiency, and contractual compliance of a fleet or portfolio of vessels. This role will act as a key link between vessel teams, charterers, owners, brokers, agents, and internal departments, ensuring that commercial commitments are delivered safely, efficiently, and in line with agreed business objectives. The successful candidate will monitor voyage performance, review operational results, and identify opportunities to improve profitability and customer satisfaction.
Key responsibilities will include coordinating voyage instructions, monitoring vessel schedules, reviewing charter party requirements, and supporting the resolution of operational or commercial issues. You will analyse revenues, costs, laytime, demurrage, off-hire, claims, and performance data, ensuring accurate reporting and timely follow-up. The role will also involve maintaining strong relationships with clients and business partners, assisting with contract negotiations, reviewing market conditions, and contributing to budgeting, forecasting, and strategic planning. Close collaboration with technical, crewing, finance, legal, and marine teams will be essential to ensure consistent and effective vessel management.
Applicants should have substantial experience in a commercial, chartering, operations, or vessel management position within the maritime, logistics, or transportation sector. A strong understanding of charter parties, voyage economics, maritime regulations, and commercial risk is required, along with excellent analytical, negotiation, and communication skills. The ability to manage multiple priorities, make sound decisions under pressure, and build productive relationships across diverse stakeholders is essential. A relevant degree or professional qualification is desirable, as is experience with fleet performance systems and commercial reporting tools. The position may involve international travel and requires a proactive, commercially focused approach with a strong commitment to safety, compliance, and continuous improvement.
