What we look for

Minimum 4 years of hands‑on experience in procurement, supply chain, or purchasing, ideally in a manufacturing environment

Strong working knowledge of procurement workflows: purchase orders, vendor management, inventory, and production planning

Hands‑on experience with ERP systems such as SAP, Oracle, or Microsoft Dynamics 365

Proven ability to design and reason through supply chain disruption scenarios and mitigation approaches

Solid understanding of disruption types: delays, shortages, quality issues, and logistics challenges

Familiarity with BOM structures and production planning processes
