- Collaborate with technical and operational leadership teams to align supplier capabilities with company requirements, ensuring product compliance and quality standards.
- Develop and maintain a transparent buy-in plan, presenting accurate and timely reports to senior stakeholders, including open requirements, fill rates, supplier performance, open POs, and price benchmarking.
- Analyze financial implications and potential risks associated with sourcing alternatives, ensuring informed decision-making.
- Provide detailed regional reports to assess product viability and strategic sourcing opportunities.
- Proactively manage supply-side challenges, maintaining a risk management strategy to mitigate potential disruptions.
- Ensure compliance with company policies, procedures, and relevant health and safety regulations.
To set you up for success, we are looking for the following skills and experience:

- Proven people management experience across time zones and functions.
- Background in strategic sourcing, procurement, and supply chain management within tech or telecom sectors.
- Excellent negotiation and supplier management skills, including the ability to secure competitive pricing and agreements.
- High-level analytical and decision-making skills with the ability to interpret complex data for strategic outcomes.
