  • Contract Compliance: Support and safeguard that contracts made by Global Indirect Purchasing (GIP) are followed.
  • Performance Monitoring: Monitor the performance of indirect suppliers and take corrective actions as necessary.

We're looking for someone with strong execution skills, a positive attitude, and excellent communication skills. If you're a team player with a strategic mindset, we'd like to hear from you.

About You
  • You have a minimum bachelor's degree, ideally a master's degree in Business Economics or similar.
  • You have a minimum 10 years of experience in indirect purchasing with a proven track record.
  • You possess strong negotiation skills and excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities to identify opportunities, assess risks, and develop effective strategies.

Apart from the qualifications mentioned above, we're looking for someone who is proficient in using e-procurement software and tools, such as e-auctions. Collaborative approach and excellent interpersonal skills are also a must.

Compensation Package: The estimated annual salary for this role is approximately €80,000 - €120,000, depending on your location and experience.
