Derby, United Kingdom Rolls Royce Full time

**Elemental Sourcing Specialist**

**Full Time**

**Derby/Hybrid (3 days/week on-site)**

An interesting opportunity has arisen for an Elemental/Raw Materials Sourcing Specialist to join our Rolls-Royce Civil Procurement Team.

In this role, you will be responsible for a procurement strategy, providing a clear vision and strategic framework for the designated supply chain. You will be part of a highly skilled cross functional team, working collaboratively to ensure that the strategies meet the needs of our current and future manufacturing programmes.

We deliver the best jet engines in the world. We’re proud to be part of the pathway to net zero as we power society for generations to come.

Work with us and we’ll welcome you into an inclusive culture, one that invests in your continuous learning and development, and gives you access to a wide breadth and depth of experience.

Did you know that a Gas Turbine engine is made up of approximately 30,000 parts and that around 70-80% of it is manufactured from parts delivered by our suppliers? Have you thought about what else might need to be purchased to run a Company like Rolls-Royce? From parts that go on the engines, to training services, to IT, to buildings, to catering services, to consumables - the Rolls-Royce Procurement teams buy it all.

We offer excellent development, a competitive salary and exceptional benefits. These include bonus, employee support assistance and employee discounts.

Your needs are as unique as you are. Hybrid working is a way in which our people can balance their time between the office, home or another remote location. It’s a locally managed and flexed informal discretionary arrangement. As a minimum we’re all expected to attend the workplace for collaboration and other specific reasons, on average three days per week.

**What you will be doing**:
In the role of Elemental Sourcing Specialist, you will work closely with Suppliers and be responsible for:

- Analysing the market and looking at trends to understand demand.
- Working with elemental ingredients - alloy, nickel, titanium, steel, platinum ‘rare earths and platinum group metals.
- Implementing strategic sourcing strategies and process improvements.
- Working with large data sets and influencing key business decisions for current manufacturing programmes.
- Contract management: contractual terms, negotiations, pricing.
- Market research, looking at trends and presenting insights.
- Managing financial risk.

**Who we are looking for**:
At Rolls-Royce we embrace agility, are bold, pursue collaboration and seek simplicity in everything we do. These principles form our values and behaviours and are an essential component of our assessment process and are fundamental qualities that we seek for all roles.
- Industrial background in metals is preferred but other relevant raw material market/commodity experience can be considered.
- Experience working as a buyer in a regulated or complex industry is preferred.
- Strategic analysis experience.
- Product knowledge of metals or other relevant raw material such, plastics or glass.
- A degree in a relevant field or CIPS qualification - desirable.
- Good communication, influencing and negotiation skills with focus on drawing value for the company.

**Join us & **Make an impact

We are an equal opportunities employer. We’re committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives. And the more perspectives we have, the more successful we’ll be. By building a culture of respect and appreciation, we give everyone who works here the opportunity to realise their full potential.
