The posting

*Be Part of Our Success Story as We Expand and Evolve*

Purpose: Serve as the customer-facing procurement lead and manage Procurement Officers supporting assigned customer platforms. Lead daily supply assurance, shortage recovery and supplier execution to prevent line stoppages, support customer and production ramp-ups, and control delivery and inventory risks.

The position is accountable for operational procurement leadership, material availability, supplier delivery assurance and timely shortage recovery. The role coordinates priorities across Planning, Operations, Quality, Engineering, Warehouse, Commodity Management and suppliers, ensuring critical supply risks are identified early, supported by credible recovery plans and escalated promptly. The position is expected to combine disciplined execution, effective team leadership, data-driven prioritisation and clear stakeholder communication. The role also develops Procurement Officer capability, strengthens operating discipline and drives agreed actions through to measurable closure.

Key Area of Responsibilities:

  • Partner with Sales, Planning and business leaders for assigned customer platforms to align procurement priorities with customer commitments, production requirements, ramp-up plans and material risks.
  • Translate ERP schedules, BOM demand, production priorities and customer ramp-up requirements into clear and actionable priorities for Procurement Officers.
  • Allocate workload and resources across Procurement Officers, balancing platform requirements, material risks, operational urgency and team capacity.
  • Set clear performance expectations, coach team members, balance workloads and build succession and functional capability within the operational procurement team.
  • Lead shortage management, supplier recovery, material-allocation and supplier de-commitment escalations, ensuring credible recovery plans, accountable owners and timely action closure.
  • Prioritise threats to production and customer commitments, coordinate cross-functional recovery actions and escalate unresolved risks in a timely manner.
  • Govern open purchase orders, supplier commitments, monthly capacity monitoring and supplier on-time delivery performance, ensuring that delivery risks and exceptions are actively managed.
  • Coordinate quality-related supply recovery, including rejected-material disposition, replacement, replenishment, rework and supplier corrective actions, in collaboration with Quality and relevant stakeholders.
  • Control excess and obsolete inventory exposure, minimum-order-quantity requirements, lead-time exceptions, safety-stock exceptions and purchasing commitments.
  • Use agreed KPIs and trend analysis to identify gaps in material availability, supplier delivery, shortage recovery, inventory performance and purchasing execution, assign corrective actions and verify sustained improvement.
  • Maintain clear decision rights, accurate operational records, measurable actions and timely escalation of unresolved material, supplier, delivery and inventory issues.
  • Support Infor LN readiness, system-data discipline and purchasing-process improvements to strengthen transaction accuracy, material visibility and operational effectiveness.

Requirements

  • Degree in Supply Chain Management, Procurement, Planning, Engineering, Business, or a related discipline.
  • 6-9 years of relevant experience in operational procurement, materials planning, supply chain management, or manufacturing operations, including team lead or supervisory responsibilities.
  • Proficient in Microsoft Excel, Power BI, or equivalent analytics tools to support data-driven decision-making.
  • Good understanding of ERP/MRP systems, preferably Baan or Infor LN or equivalent enterprise planning systems.
  • Knowledge of Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, or continuous improvement methodologies is an advantage.
  • Solid understanding of procurement, material planning, inventory management, and supply chain operations.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
