As construction progresses at Mardie, we are continuing to shape our team. We are looking for an individual who is ready to be a part of this exciting operation, where you will have the prospect to really make an immediate impact.

The Company

BCI Minerals is a values-driven company developing sustainable minerals for the modern world.

We are rapidly progressing the Mardie Salt Operation and Potash Project (Mardie Operation), a tier 1 solar evaporation project that will supply high-purity industrial salt and sulphate of potash (SOP) for more than 60 years.

Mardie will be the largest salt operation in Australia and the third largest globally. With first salt on ship on track to be achieved early 2027, BCI Minerals is just at the beginning of its journey to become a key player in a multitude of globally significant sustainable opportunities.

Our values are the foundation of our success. They reflect our commitment to fostering an inclusive, high-performing culture driven by our people's collective efforts and unique strengths. They guide us in achieving our strategic goals and solidify our position as a leader in the industry.

The Role

As the Superintendent Procurement, you will lead BCI's procurement and supply chain function, developing and implementing a procurement strategy that delivers maximum value, cost efficiencies and effective service delivery across the business. You will establish fit-for-purpose procurement processes, policies and procedures that streamline purchasing activities, improve efficiencies and ensure compliance with relevant statutory and business requirements.

You will oversee end-to-end procurement activities, including sourcing, tendering, contract negotiations, purchase order management and supplier performance. Building and maintaining strong relationships with internal stakeholders,



project teams and external suppliers will be key to ensuring operational and project requirements are met. You will identify opportunities for cost reduction, negotiate competitive pricing and value-added services, develop preferred supplier arrangements and framework agreements, and drive continuous improvement across the procurement function.

You will also lead supplier and inventory management, ensuring appropriate stock levels are maintained, long-lead items are effectively managed and goods and services are procured at the right price and delivered within required timeframes. This includes overseeing supplier prequalification, monitoring supplier performance, resolving commercial and delivery issues, supporting contract and vendor negotiations, and working collaboratively with stakeholders to achieve the best total value for BCI.

You will also establish effective procurement reporting and performance measures, providing visibility of procurement activities through key metrics, including purchase order status, expenditure, procure-to-pay performance and purchasing cycle times. Acting as the central point of reference for procurement matters, you will provide strategic guidance and operational support to the business while fostering a culture of accountability, commercial discipline and continuous improvement.
