Your challenges
As a Strategic Buyer for VELUX Commercial, you will work with a team of 3 other Strategic Buyers and our local Purchasing teams handling the end-to-end Supplier Life Cycle and Sourcing to Contract processes for the unique suppliers to VELUX Commercial.
Within Global Procurement you will have close collaboration on sourcing strategies and specific strategic suppliers shared with the Category Management function of the VELUX Residential business.
In Commercial Procurement, you will be responsible for ensuring solid business solutions for the VELUX Commercial business unit. Your tasks will cover the full range of strategic & tactical procurement tasks.
You will be co-responsible for minimizing our purchasing and production costs (End2End), Supplier Consolidation/reduction, Contract Coverage & Compliance and ensuring that our development projects are accomplished in the right quality, at the right time, and at the right price. The successful candidate will achieve this through strong relations with external suppliers as well as internal stakeholders and by pro-active execution of the overall sourcing strategy defined in Commercial Procurement, supporting Supply in VELUX Commercial. Order handling is not part of the tasks of this role, but is handled by our 6 VELUX Commercial factories Europe.
As VELUX Commercial is a project-related business, the business often needs fast actions, flexibility and requires attention to the right solutions, which sometimes are taken on an uncertain basis, such as processes, data, etc. in development.
More specifically, you will:
Take responsibility for independent and cross-functional strategic projects
Be responsible for own portfolio of suppliers/projects
Be vendor responsible and negotiate and make commercial agreements with a TCO approach
Participate in the development and execution of the overall Commercial sourcing strategy with a main focus on cost out through supplier reduction/consolidation within your area
Execute RFI/RFQ processes and ensure correct purchasing master data in our ERP systems
Ensure continuous communication with internal stakeholders regarding valid supplier contracts, prices, and general optimization which could include possible new suppliers
Work with Procurement KPIs as a goal for your results
Build and maintain good relations with suppliers as well as internal stakeholders
Admin and processing tools - ca. 50% of work time
As a Strategic Buyer, you need to be close to suppliers and our productions sites. Therefore you should expect 40-50 traveling days per year (mainly Eastern Europe, Germany and Denmark)
Your qualifications
Relevant master's degree in e.g., Business, Engineering or mixed form of Supply Chain Management
Have minimum 3 years of professional experience in an international strategic procurement/Category Management environment, preferably within a medium to large production/OEM company as Strategic buyer or commodity specialist
Experience within our main material fields, such as metals, metal parts, building glass, PVC etc. is an advantage, but not a prerequisite
Have a solid strategic Procurement Toolbox and the ability to derive tangible actions from facts and data
Additionally, you are an experienced user of Navision or SAP, Ariba, and MS Office 365.
You are used to working with many processes and procedures and used to keeping an overview of your tasks in a well-structured manner.
You are a strong communicator with natural skills of building working relationships which enables you to work across the organization and operate in a matrix organization.
You thrive on having many contacts across geographic borders and cultures, why fluency in English is a prerequisite.
You are a strong negotiator, and it is important that you enjoy an outgoing role where your communication skills and your ability to keep in contact, make clear agreements, and get commitment from others will be crucial to your results.
Your tasks will be challenging and require sound business acumen. Since you will be working with forecasting, raw material/market trends and data analysis to decide on proper actions and solutions, it is important that you possess strong analytical skills and attention to detail.
You thrive on being able to plan and drive your own tasks and ensure the necessary progress also during changing circumstances. Due to your experience, you can work independently with a minimum supervision and guidance.
Your opportunities
In this role, you will not only get the chance to work in a strategically important position within procurement, but you will also have a unique opportunity to put your mark on our sustainability journey towards reducing our carbon footprints.
The VELUX Group offers an interesting and varying job with great opportunities for influencing your own future development. We believe in empowering people, and we support this through sharing knowledge, delegating responsibility, and continuously developing our employees.
