Global lime and mineral producer operating across 25+ countries
Lhoist is a 135-year-old mining and materials company running a heavy SAP/Coupa enterprise stack typical of industrial manufacturers at scale. The hiring mix is heavily weighted toward operations and manufacturing (68 of 134 roles), with a smaller but active engineering cohort (25 roles), indicating focus on supply-chain optimization and facility modernization rather than product innovation. Current project pipeline centers on preventive maintenance, automation, and renewable energy installation—practical improvements aligned with their stated pain points around maintenance cost control and process efficiency.
