Field Programme & Procurement Coordinator

About the role

Solar Age is delivering a donor-funded programme to supply and install solar water pump systems for smallholder farmers in south-east Myanmar until the end of 2027. It is looking for a Field Programme & Procurement Coordinator to own the delivery end to end: the installation schedule, the procurement pipeline, the farmer payment cycle and the reporting. Payments from the donor are released against installations completed, so the schedule kept is the company's cash flow.

Key responsibilities

• Own the rollout plan by township and deployment cycle, keeping it realistic as access, weather and partner schedules change.
• Run the procurement pipeline: supplier selection and scheduling, equipment validation before each order, import and customs coordination, and stock control against the installed fleet.
• Supervise field supervisors, field officers and installation crews, and set weekly targets.
• Own the donor reporting: budget against actuals, the evidence pack behind each payment, the farmer database and the photographic record for every installed system.
• Work with implementing partners who introduce the company in the villages and with township authorities.
• Protect the installation standard, the commissioning test and the handover documentation on every system.

Required profile

• At least 8 years of work experience, including 3 years running distribution, sales operations or project delivery in Myanmar.
• Hands-on experience with solar products; solar water pumps, solar irrigation or off-grid solar distribution is preferred, while rooftop solar or renewable energy project experience is also relevant.
• A real procurement and logistics background: demand planning, supplier management, imports, inventory and transport.
• Knowledge of rural Myanmar and how village-level sales and installation work; familiarity with Mon, Kayin or Kayah States is a strong advantage.
• Experience on donor-funded or NGO-funded programmes, including budget reporting, is a strong advantage.
• Good written and spoken English, and fluent Myanmar.
• Willing to travel to project sites regularly.

What we offer

• Competitive salary based on experience, plus a commission for every system installed under the programme.
• A fixed-term contract to December 2027, extendable if the programme or company takes on new projects.
• Mobile phone allowance, with travel and accommodation covered for field work.
