About the role
As a Strategic Buyer, you will be a key part of the Global Supply Chain & Procurement team within Operations. You will thrive at the intersection of long-term vision and daily execution, helping to create a supply base that can scale. The Buyer will collaborate with suppliers to negotiate favorable terms, manage inventory levels, and streamline purchasing processes. Your organizational skills and ability to build strong relationships will be essential as you oversee purchase orders, delivery schedules, and product costs. You will also go beyond transactional purchasing activities to actively manage supplier relationships, supply risks, business escalations, and cross-functional priorities. Rather than just reacting to immediate needs, you will look around corners to anticipate and neutralize supply chain risks months and years before they can impact our business. If you’re a detail-oriented individual with a passion for driving cost savings and operational excellence, we encourage you to apply.
