This includes discussing any issues or concerns, sharing information on production schedules, and collaborating on continuous improvement initiatives.
Key Responsibilities:
- Manage the end-to-end procurement process for castings, from identifying requirements through to delivery and payment
- Develop and maintain relationships with suppliers to ensure quality, cost, and delivery targets are met
- Identify and manage risks in the supply chain, including supplier capacity and financial stability
