Job Description
Zinc & Non-Ferrous Metallurgy is looking for an experienced Lead Supply Chain Coordination Plant Head (Ops) to take ownership of the Supply Chain Coordination (Raw Ore/Concentrate) - Operations & Execution charter at a senior level. This is a role for someone who has already operated at scale and is comfortable setting direction rather than simply following one.
The successful candidate will bring approximately 8 years of progressively senior experience, holding M.Tech (Metallurgy), with a demonstrated track record across Supply Chain Coordination (Raw Ore, Metallurgical Testing & Analysis, Environmental Compliance (Pollution Control), Ore Processing & Beneficiation, Process Optimisation. Beyond individual capability, this role expects the person to mentor junior team members and represent the function in cross-departmental discussions.
Reporting relationships will be defined based on the final scope agreed at offer stage, and the role is based out of Bengaluru on a hybrid arrangement. Compensation is benchmarked at INR 16.1-58.1 LPA, reflecting the seniority and scope of the position.
Success in this role will be measured less by task completion and more by the quality of judgement applied to ambiguous, high-stakes situations within supply chain coordination (raw ore/concentrate) - operations & execution.
The team follows a flat structure where ideas are evaluated on merit rather than hierarchy, and feedback flows in both directions. Internal job postings are open to employees who've completed a minimum tenure in their current role. There is a defined internal mobility path for people who want to specialise deeper or move into people management.
Work culture here leans collaborative, with regular knowledge-sharing sessions and an open-door policy for raising concerns. Candidates are encouraged to highlight measurable outcomes from previous roles rather than just responsibilities held. No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions.
The environment rewards initiative - people who flag problems early and propose fixes tend to grow faster here. The hiring process typically includes a screening round, a technical or functional assessment, and a final discussion with the reporting manager.
Priorities can shift mid-week depending on business needs, so adaptability matters as much as technical depth. References may be requested closer to the offer stage rather than at the start of the process. Benefits include health insurance, provident fund contributions, and paid leave in line with company policy.
Learning and certification support is available for tools and frameworks directly relevant to the role. High performers in this role typically move into a broader ownership scope within 18-24 months. Cross-functional exposure is built into the role by design, so the person will regularly interact with adjacent teams and leadership.
The organisation has historically promoted from within for a majority of its senior and lead openings. Compensation includes standard statutory benefits along with performance-linked variable pay. Interested candidates should be prepared to walk through relevant past work during the interview process.
