1 week ago

Gladsaxe, Gladsaxe Municipality, Denmark Orifarm Group Full time

Category: Supply Chain
Country/Region: DK
Location: Odense, DK, 5260 Søborg, DK, 2860

Are you experienced in strategic procurement and motivated to lead and build strong relationships with key portfolio suppliers? Then, this position might be ideal for you.

About the job
We are looking for an experienced procurement professional dedicated to strengthening our partnerships with suppliers and other parties supplying Orifarm with all semi-finished and finished products.

As a Senior Strategic Procurement Manager, you will lead strategic negotiations with current and potential suppliers to ensure cost-effective solutions and deals. You will be responsible for maintaining close and collaborative relationships with assigned suppliers while building a culture of long-term optimal procurement cost management.

Key tasks include but are not limited to:

  • Develop and execute fruitful sourcing strategies in countries with a focus on Asia
  • Discover profitable suppliers and initiate business and organization partnerships
  • Understand, analyse, and leverage the supplier market regarding technical capabilities, cost competitiveness, financial stability, and Pharmaceutical quality standards
  • Regularly perform standard procurement requests and procedures (RFP) and (RFQ) in a structured and state-of-the-art manner by securing Orifarm's reputation and credibility
  • Build and maintain great professional relations with assigned groups of suppliers through regular performance & collaboration assessment
  • Participate in Business Review Meetings (BRMs) with suppliers and lead the Strategic Procurement part during those meetings
  • Regularly visit suppliers and attend relevant exhibitions/fairs.
  • Build in-house competencies and share best practices with functional colleagues

In this position, you will report to the Supplier Relationship Manager, Jesper Viskum Nørgaard. You will become a part of a newly created SRT Team. In this position, you can expect approximately 25 % travel to India and other Asian countries. However, it will be flexible to fit your work-life balance.

Who are you?
We are looking for a candidate with a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Business, Supply Chain Management, or another relevant education. As a professional, you possess a solid knowledge of sourcing and procurement techniques and have experience with negotiation internationally. You must understand market dynamics and have a basic understanding of Pharmaceutical regulations and GMP.

We are looking for a candidate who has experience in a heavily regulated industry, such as Pharmaceuticals, Food, Cosmetics, FMCG, Chemicals, or similar, as it will be crucial to establish success in this role.

As you will primarily be focused on the Asian market, profound cultural insight is extremely important. However, it need not be limited to Asian countries; that would be advantageous.

As Orifarm is an international company, you must be professionally proficient in English and have excellent oral and written communication skills.

Who are we?
You will be part of the Product Supply organization, where we are ambitious, nurture an open and trustful atmosphere, and where we are eager to achieve our objectives and celebrate success together.

We offer
At Orifarm, we know our growth comes from the growth of our employees. We are an ambitious organization with an entrepreneurial culture celebrating can-do attitudes, smarts, and hearts. Our secret to success? Valuing how different skill sets join forces to make our journey happen. Whether you play a direct or an indirect part in fulfilling our purpose, you get to contribute and use your personal and professional skills.

Job location
Odense or Søborg.
