Job Description

Our Story:

The a2 Milk Company, driven by science and a pioneering spirit, disrupted the dairy and infant milk formula industry. Our vision is to create an A1-free world where dairy nourishes all people and our planet.

The a2 Milk Company seeks to achieve this through the naturally occurring a2 Milk® difference and by bringing a more sustainable approach to dairy.

About the role:

Reporting to the Head of Strategic Sourcing and based in our Auckland CBD office, you will play an important role in supporting our Strategic Sourcing team across both Direct Materials and Indirect Spend.

This is a hands-on role that combines sourcing coordination, procurement administration, data analysis and supplier management. You’ll work closely with our Sourcing Managers to support sourcing projects, maintain strong procurement processes and provide the data and insights needed to make informed commercial decisions.

Importantly, this role also provides an opportunity to grow into greater sourcing and category ownership. As you build your knowledge of our business, suppliers and categories, there will be scope to take ownership of selected lower-spend categories and lead sourcing activity through to delivery.

More specifically, you will be involved in:

  • Coordinating RFI, RFQ, RFP and tender processes, including supplier communications, documentation, evaluations and follow-up.
  • Supporting sourcing projects across Direct Materials and Indirect Spend, working closely with the Sourcing Managers and key stakeholders.
  • Conducting spend, supplier, pricing and market analysis to identify opportunities and support sourcing decisions.
  • Preparing sourcing, savings, supplier performance and procurement reports, dashboards and analysis.
  • Maintaining accurate supplier master data, pricing, contracts and procurement records across our ERP and procurement systems.
  • Supporting supplier onboarding, qualification, compliance and performance management activities.
  • Tracking commodity indices, market trends and supplier pricing to support sourcing and commercial decisions.
  • Supporting procurement governance, policy compliance, audit readiness and process controls.
  • Contributing to process improvement and data quality initiatives across the Strategic Sourcing function.
  • Over time, taking ownership of selected lower-spend categories, developing sourcing strategies, managing supplier relationships and delivering commercial outcomes.

About you:

You’re an organised, analytical and commercially minded team player who is an innovative thinker and hungry learner, with a genuine interest in developing your sourcing capability and taking on greater ownership over time.

You’ll bring:

  • 3–5 years’ experience in procurement, sourcing, supply chain or commercial support.
  • Experience supporting RFI, RFQ, RFP or tender processes.
  • Strong Excel and analytical skills, with Power BI experience advantageous.
  • Experience with ERP or procurement systems and supplier data management.
  • Strong attention to detail, organisation and ability to manage multiple priorities.
  • Confident communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • A proactive mindset and interest in developing towards category ownership.
  • FMCG, food manufacturing or dairy experience and MCIPS would be advantageous.

If you’re looking for a role where you can build your sourcing experience, work across a broad range of categories and gradually take on more ownership, this is a great opportunity to join the a2 Milk Company at an exciting point in the evolution of our Strategic Sourcing function.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
