Liquids Operations Manager
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real content. The posting includes: description (intro), responsibilities, expectations, qualifications, physical demands, etc. No explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections (though schedule mentioned: "Will be working M-F, normal day shift, eight hours, and overtime required as needed." That's schedule info. So we can include a Schedule section with that content. Benefits not mentioned. Pay not mentioned. Skills maybe implied but not explicit list; we could include Skills if we have content? There's expectations about leadership, communication, etc. Could treat as Skills. But better to follow: include sections for About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Qualifications (including Education Requirements), Physical Demands (maybe part of Qualifications?), Schedule. The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use those headings if content exists. We have About the role (intro paragraph). Responsibilities (list). Qualifications (list). Schedule (maybe). Physical Demands could be part of Qualifications or a separate section like Requirements? There's a "Requirements" heading suggestion; we could put Physical Demands under Requirements. But we have Qualifications and Education Requirements separate. The posting has "Qualifications and Education Requirements:" then list. Also "Physical Demands". Could treat Physical Demands as a subsection under Requirements or Qualifications. Safer to make a section "Requirements" for Physical Demands. But we already have Qualifications. Let's decide: Use sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Requirements (Physical Demands), Schedule. No Benefits, Pay, Skills.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate. Preserve all substantive info.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So responsibilities list should be
. Qualifications list also . Physical demands list . Schedule maybe just a .
We must not invent or summarize away detail. Keep all details.
Let's extract content.
Intro paragraph: "The Liquids Operations Manager plays a critical leadership role in overseeing all aspects of liquid terminal operations at Texas International Terminals. This position ensures the safe, efficient, and compliant handling of a range of liquid products including refined fuels, marine fuels, and crude oil. Key responsibilities include coordinating product receipt, storage, processing, and shipment activities in alignment with customer requirements and regulatory obligations. As a highly visible and field-engaged leader, the Liquids Operations Manager is accountable for driving a strong safety culture, managing daily operations, and fostering team performance. The role requires operational expertise in liquid handling systems and infrastructure, sound judgment, and the ability to balance technical execution with commercial awareness. This individual serves as a key liaison between operations personnel, customers, regulatory agencies, and internal stakeholders. Success in this role demands the ability to lead a high-performing team, uphold rigorous compliance standards, and ensure operations are executed on schedule, within budget, and to the highest quality and safety standards."
Then there is a block "Roles Tank Farm:..." which seems like a detailed breakdown of responsibilities. We need to preserve all substantive info; we can incorporate into responsibilities list.
Let's parse responsibilities sections:
Roles Tank Farm: Responsible for overall operational oversight of all liquid and process operations at the terminal, with accountability for safety, efficiency, environmental compliance, and customer satisfaction.
Supervision: Oversees and supports frontline supervisors and crew leads, ensuring that operational teams are well-coordinated, trained, and performing effectively. Responsible for ensuring the staffing, training, development, and discipline of liquids operation personnel. Responsible for managing the performance and development of both field and office-based team members.
Safety & Compliance: Ensures strict adherence to OSHA regulations, environmental standards, and company safety policies. Leads safety initiatives, conducts audits, and promotes a strong safety culture across the team. Investigates incidents and implements corrective measures to prevent recurrence.
Process & Equipment Optimization: Identifies operational inefficiencies and implements improvements to boost productivity and reduce costs. Oversees the maintenance and readiness of equipment and ensures timely procurement of parts and supplies. Works with the maintenance team to execute preventive maintenance plans.
Performance Monitoring & Collaboration: Tracks key performance indicators (KPIs) and provides regular reports to senior leadership. Collaborates with logistics, customer service, and other departments to ensure coordinated, efficient operations. Supports strategic initiatives and contributes to company-wide improvement efforts.
Core Values: Embody and encourage all core values of the company in all decision making and actions
Then there is a "Responsibilities" heading (duplicate) with a list:
Responsible for safely managing liquid and process operation activities and personnel. This includes coordination of product receipt, processing, storage, and shipments to meet customer requirements.
Ensure operation is executed in a safe, environmentally sound, and efficient manner.
Responsible for staffing the operation to execute daily activities while maintaining cost sensitivity within budget requirements
Physically present daily in the field providing crew supervision, training, coaching, crew development, discipline, recruitment, hiring, and terminations.
Ensure timely and cost-efficient receipt, production, storage and shipment of refined and bulk liquid products.
Update product forecasts, production matrix, and on-stream availability with terminal customers.
Manage production, storage, and marine customers’ communications.
Prepare annual expense and Capital budgets for Board approval.
Manage budgeted expense and Capital projects
Approve invoices and ensure accurate plant accounting.
Prepare monthly reports- inventory, production, safety, environmental compliance, and cost forecasts.
Assist the terminal security officer; maintain USCG MTSA and TWIC requirements
Ensure pipeline integrity management, damage prevention, and public awareness requirements are met.
Assist with all regulatory compliance and audits including DOT, TCEQ, USCG, and EPA.
Coordinate and administer all emergency, preventive and contract maintenance.
Manage, coordinate, provide leadership to and evaluate work of liquid and process operations personnel.
Administer recordkeeping which includes shipping and receiving documentation and product quality, shrink, and inventory records.
Train and develop operators and office personnel in appropriate skill in their areas to maintain safe operations.
Assume responsibility for all facility safety requirements, which include: 1) coordinating all inspections and maintenance of safety equipment, 2) monitoring operator and contractor safety habits and maintenance procedures, 3) actively participate in training exercises with area first responders and emergency personnel.
Ensure compliance with all Federal, State, and local regulations.
Assist in troubleshooting at terminal.
Responsible for the safe handling of various marine fuels, crude oils, and refined products. This includes storage, pipeline operations, truck loading, and marine operations.
Additional duties include SOP development and training, PSM, RMP, DOT, and environmental recordkeeping, terminal troubleshooting, and design modifications.
We need to keep all these as list items.
Then "Expectations" block: list of expectations (leadership, etc). Could be considered Skills or Requirements. Might be better to put under Skills section. But we have no explicit Skills heading in posting; but we can create Skills section if we have content. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine Expectations into Qualifications or Skills. But we already have Qualifications (education, experience). Expectations are more about behavioral competencies. Could treat as Skills. Let's create a Skills section with those expectations as list.
Then "Qualifications and Education Requirements:" list:
Qualifications – Chemical Engineer with 5+ years managing operations preferred.
12+ years demonstrated success in safely overseeing and managing a liquids operation department.
Must have or be able to obtain a TWIC card.
Must possess and maintain a valid US driver’s license.
Must pass all pre-employment testing including a drug test, physical and background check.
Physical Demands section:
Candidates must be able to work in confined spaces and be capable of climbing ladders, scaffolds, and working at heights.
Must be able to perform work wearing PPE including but not limited to rain gear, chemical protective clothing, supplied air and air purifying respirators, safety harness, FRC, hard hat, ear plugs, safety glasses, etc.
Respiratory protection fit-testing, pulmonary function testing, and fit for duty exam if required.
Candidates must be able to lift and carry up to 50lbs, unassisted.
Will be working M-F, normal day shift, eight hours, and overtime required as needed.
We could put Physical Demands under Requirements heading, and schedule info also there or separate Schedule section. Since schedule info is in Physical Demands paragraph, we could extract schedule: "Will be working M-F, normal day shift, eight hours, and overtime required as needed." That's schedule. Could make a Schedule section with that sentence. But we already have it in Physical Demands; maybe better to keep under Requirements as part of physical demands. However instruction: Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Requirements section for physical demands and maybe also include schedule there. But we could also have Schedule section separate. Since schedule is a distinct piece, we could make Schedule section with that sentence. But we must not create sections with filler; schedule is real content. So we can have Schedule section.
Thus sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (combined list from Roles and Responsibilities), Qualifications (education/experience), Skills (Expectations), Requirements (Physical Demands), Schedule (work schedule). Benefits, Pay omitted.
Now we need to ensure we don't duplicate content. We'll combine responsibilities from both sections into one list, ensuring we don't repeat same items. Let's list all unique responsibility statements.
