- Strong analytical and quantitative skills
- Ability to understand relevant technical aspects of given categories
- Proactive and action-orientated. Will get into the required level of operational details to deliver business needs. Can make things happen regardless of obstacles
- Presence to engage effectively with senior supplier stakeholders
- Proven ability to build strong supplier relationships to achieve business goals
- Experienced in autonomously managing all procurement aspects of a category
The successful individual will need to demonstrate clear strategic direct procurement experience (6-10 years) gained in a multinational blue-chip setting in order to successfully deliver the objectives of the role.
