If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and have a passion for turning strategy into action, this is your opportunity to make a measurable impact.
What You'll Do:
- Lead and execute strategic sourcing and cost-saving initiatives, starting with CapEx categories
- Manage the full sourcing lifecycle: vendor identification, RFI/RFP development, bid analysis, and supplier selection
- Negotiate contracts that optimize cost, service levels, compliance, and risk
- Collaborate with stakeholders across departments to align procurement strategy with business goals
- Analyze supplier proposals and performance; deliver recommendations to leadership
- Maintain and enhance contract database and lead renewal/renegotiation efforts
- Conduct supplier performance reviews and contribute to relationship management programs
- Promote supplier diversity and help build a resilient, high-performing vendor network
- Drive process improvement within procurement and across business functions
- Support other sourcing-related projects and responsibilities as assigned
What You Bring:
- Bachelor’s degree in supply chain, Business, or related field (or equivalent experience)
- 5+ years of sourcing/procurement experience, ideally with CapEx focus (equipment, facilities, technology)
- Strong contract negotiation and vendor management skills
- Exceptional analytical, critical thinking, and communication skills
- Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced, results-driven environment
- Familiarity with Microsoft Dynamics NAV (preferred)
- Experience with MBO (Management by Objectives) structures is a plus
Why Join Us?
You’ll be part of a collaborative team where your insights and actions directly influence business performance and operational excellence. This is more than a procurement role—it’s a chance to shape strategy, build lasting supplier partnerships, and drive innovation.
