Conduct and lead negotiations for assigned sourcing projects, ensuring optimal terms and conditions. Identify opportunities in responsible categories and drive continuous process improvements. Execute supplier evaluations, assessing capabilities and risks to optimize relationships. Serve as a subject matter expert for the Source to Pay process, providing user training as needed. Build and maintain effective stakeholder relationships to partner on current and future projects. Collaborate with Global Procurement colleagues to align on sourcing strategies and leverage global requirements. Lead negotiations with key suppliers and develop strategic external partnerships. Monitor market conditions to adapt sourcing strategies proactively. Present and interact with management-level stakeholders to ensure alignment and execution of procurement strategies. Please note that this role requires a candidate to be a holder of work permit & residency in Poland. Who You Are: You are an innovative problem-solver with a knack for translating business needs into actionable procurement strategies. Your ability to build strong relationships allows you to effectively partner with stakeholders and suppliers alike. You thrive in dynamic environments, adapting to evolving business needs with creativity and a hands-on approach. Your excellent communication skills enable you to present confidently to management while fostering collaboration across teams. You are driven by a passion for delivering value and achieving alignment with global procurement goals. Required Skills: Bachelor’s Degree required (or equivalent). A minimum of 5 years of procurement experience with a broad range of category experience. At least 3 years in procurement or a similar position. Experience negotiating supplier agreements and leading project teams. Excellent written and oral communication skills.
