This is a broad and varied role, meaning no two days are the same.

Some of your responsibilities could include:

  • Supply Market research and early supplier involvement identifying, researching and evaluating potential suppliers for design development and production supply
  • Working alongside our SEA teams, Research specialists, Engineering Managers and Procurement Engineers in commercial activities such as supplier requests for quotations, cost analysis, should cost analysis and identification of cost saving opportunities
  • Contributing to new project sourcing plans on specific categories and global commodities to develop and manage Product and Category sourcing strategies.
  • Supporting the Supplier Selection process for new projects, gathering and presenting data for stakeholder approval
  • Negotiating with suppliers to achieve year on year purchased part savings and contribute to the new venture Procurement team's cost savings target
  • Working alongside various commodities, you will work in an FMGC structured where agility and creativity will be required.
  • Involved into end to end projects to understand supplier's production and tooling schedules and capacity: analysing data to ensure we have the right level of capacity and material commitment at the right time and cost.


We'll support you with a development framework designed to help to capitalise on your first or second experience in procurement.


About you:

  • Engineering or businessrelated degree, with an active interest in managing projects.
  • Strong in numeracy, communication and interpersonal skills, with the confidence to negotiate with and influence internal and external stakeholders.
  • Familiar with Excel, Tableau, programming and/or database creation tools.
  • Able to demonstrate how you manage your time effectively and multitask so experience of a highpressure, competitive environment would be beneficial.
  • Able to evidence a strong sense of commercial acumen and an active interest in business, either through your university projects or as part of your cocurricular activities.
  • A proactive problem solver and happy to build your own networks to learn from the technical expertise around you.
