What this job involves:

Developing and implementing sourcing strategies

Delivering our sourcing plans in a consistent manner is critical to the job. Finding ways to reduce the complexities in our procurement operations—without sacrificing our performance or our client’s preferences—is also part of the role. Simply put, your job is to make sure we continue to deliver value to our clients by coming up with sourcing plans that balance the business’s needs, company risk, and supply market capability.

Additionally, you’ll be our subject matter expert in this domain. As such, you must gather and track relevant information, and maintain their accuracy, so that we can use such details when we set our targets and identify opportunities for further improvement to our defined category strategy.

Knowledge on drafting Manpower , Adhoc Supplies and Annual Maintenance Contracts with respective Vendors.

Holding regular KPI / SLA connects with the Vendor partner to gauge their performance.

Get Rate Cards agreed with adhoc supplies / consumables vendor partners.

Taking monthly / quarterly requirement from the site teams.

Managing stakeholder relationships

Working closely with key stakeholders, you’ll collate details regarding the requirements of every category (e.g., spend, demand, supplier performance and service requirements), and record them in a logical format. Looking after our relationship with suppliers, you’ll help in resolving escalated supplier issues and developing the appropriate supplier management and performance metrics.

Sound like you? To apply you need to be:

Adroit and experienced

You’ll need to have at least five to eight years of practice in applying your detailed know-how of the various procurement facets, principles, and approaches, including, among others: supplier marketplace; key drivers and levers; supply base and balance of power; spend category; and sourcing management.

Sound knowledge of corporate regulations and legislation will also be useful in creating binding group contracts.

Money savvy

An ability to manage spend wisely so that it aligns with the business targets is essential. If you have this, we’ll expect you to be good in fulfilling commitments in terms of supply, quality, innovation, and risk management. You’re also skilled in putting the budget to the best use possible—ultimately, achieving cost excellence.

A proven relationship builder

You’ll be used to effectively communicating with and engaging stakeholders—be they your own team members, colleagues, or external clients. Handling complex conversations with business partners and executive decision makers, and “selling” to them the benefits of procurement would come naturally to you.
