Leadership – Excellence and Quality of Life Control

The CompanyArcelorMittal Liberia (AML) is part of the global steel giant ArcelorMittal, committed to leading the way in steel production with a focus on safety, sustainability, quality, and leadership.   The AML project is unique to ArcelorMittal's mining portfolio in that this was the first greenfield mine the company operated.    ArcelorMittal mine, Mount Gangra, is considered one of the most beautiful mining environments in the world. It consists of a massive deposit of good-quality iron ore and is situated near the town of Yekepa. Iron ore is then transported to nearby Tokadeh, also in the Nimba mountain range.

From Tokadeh, the ore is transported by rail to Buchanan for eventual shipment out of Liberia.  ArcelorMittal is currently undergoing a massive Phase II expansion project, which is set to be a game changer. The project, with a capacity of 15 million tonnes of iron ore concentrate, is making steady progress and is expected to be commissioned in Q4 2024.   The project consists of a state-of-the-art concentrator plant along with augmentation of the existing rail and port infrastructure to support the production and shipping of concentrated ore.

The project will also have a positive impact on the local economy, with significant infrastructure upgrades, including road development, being taken up as part of the project.  Join us at ArcelorMittal Liberia, where your work will contribute to redefining steel for a new generation, driving innovation, and embracing diversity.  The RoleThe Lead – Excellence and Quality of Life Control is responsible for managing the food contract within ArcelorMittal Liberia, ensuring the daily production and distribution of approximately 20,000 meals to workers based in Yekepa, Tokadeh, Buchanan, and occasionally along the railway line.
