Job Position: Head of Manufacturing / Supply Chain
Job Location: Ibadan, Oyo

Role Summary

• RxAll is moving upstream from pharmacy credit and distribution into own-brand contract manufacturing and parallel import of pharmaceutical products for Nigeria and West Africa.
• The Head of Manufacturing / Supply Chain owns this build end-to-end so the CEO can stay on the core business. This is the first and most important hire in the initiative.

What You Will Own

• Sourcing: shortlist and manage contract manufacturers (offshore + in-country); negotiate EXW/landed pricing to hit ?30% gross margin.
• Regulatory: drive NAFDAC registration for own-brand products; coordinate GMP audits, COPP, dossiers (with a consultant).
• Landed-cost model: own and validate the unit economics — manufacturing, freight, duties, NAFDAC amortization, distribution.
• Pilots: run the Ceftriaxone and Augmentin/Ozempic pilots through RxAllDelivered; track sell-through, reorder, and margin.
• Supply chain: inventory planning, QA on arrival (batch testing), 3PL and warehousing, supplier portal for invoices/COAs/shipping docs.

First 90 Days — Deliverables

• Day 30: validated landed-cost model; EXW locked for ?30% gross margin on Ceftriaxone; NAFDAC filing opened; Augmentin parallel-import pilot order (1,000 packs) placed.
• Day 60: Augmentin pilot landed and selling through 50 pilot pharmacies; Ceftriaxone pilot batch (5,000) ordered.
• Day 90: Ceftriaxone pilot delivered; sell-through and reorder measured; landed cost confirmed against quotes; Go/No-Go pack for the CEO.

Who You Are

• 8–15 years in pharmaceutical manufacturing or supply chain in Nigeria / West Africa.
• Direct NAFDAC product-registration experience (you have filed and landed registrations).
• Existing relationships with contract manufacturers — local and international (India, China, Egypt, Pakistan).
• Step-up candidate preferred: currently a Plant Manager or Supply Chain Director who sees this as a Head/VP move.
• Numerate — comfortable owning a landed-cost model and defending margin to the CEO.

N600,000 - N840,000 per month.
