  • Analyze supply markets, cost structures, and supplier landscapes to identify opportunities, mitigate risks, and maintain a competitive cost position.
  • Ensure material availability by proactively managing supplier performance, capacity constraints, quality risks, and sourcing strategies, including dual-sourcing and supplier development initiatives.
  • Build and maintain a strong supplier base through supplier selection, evaluation, development, and phase-out processes in close collaboration with Quality, Engineering, and Operations teams.
  • Partner with R&D and Engineering teams throughout the product development cycle, identifying suitable suppliers, supporting sourcing activities, and ensuring timely sample procurement to meet project milestones.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to identify and realize productivity and cost-improvement opportunities across the organization.
  • Manage supplier relationships and act as the primary procurement interface for assigned commodities and projects.
  • Support additional procurement and sourcing activities as required by business needs.
  • Perform other duties and responsibilities assigned by the line manager.

Your Profile

  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Supply Chain Management, Materials Management, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in Strategic Procurement, Project Procurement, or a comparable purchasing role within a high-tech manufacturing environment.
  • Experience in the electrical or mechanical manufacturing industry is highly desirable; knowledge of electric motor components is a strong advantage.
  • Fluent in English and confident using it as a working language.
  • Strong knowledge of procurement processes, supplier management, and sourcing strategies.
  • Solid technical understanding of the materials and components within your area of responsibility.
  • Good understanding of quality management principles, commercial practices, and contract law.

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.
