  • Running RFQs, tenders, and supplier negotiations at regional level.
  • Driving process standardization and optimization, ensuring consistency and efficiency across procurement functions.
  • Monitoring supplier performance and ensuring contract compliance.
  • Supporting data analysis, market intelligence, and benchmarking to inform strategic decision-making.

What We're Looking For

  • To succeed in this role, you'll need a combination of procurement expertise, strategic mindset, and strong stakeholder management skills. We're looking for someone who brings:
  • A university degree (business, supply chain, economics, or related field).
  • 5+ years of procurement experience, preferably in indirect categories and international environments.
  • Fluent English and German or Spanish is required.
  • Strong negotiation and communication skills with a proactive and persuasive personality.
  • Experience with SAP and WMD, as well as solid skills in MS Office (Excel, PowerPoint).
  • Strong analytical thinking, process-oriented approach, and project management skills.
  • Adaptability and resilience in a fast-paced, matrixed organization.
  • A collaborative mindset and international perspective.

What's in It for You?

  • A strategic, visible role within a respected, global FMCG organization.
  • The chance to shape procurement strategies across European markets.
  • Hybrid work setup based in Poznań or remote with 1-2 visits in our office per month
  • Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package (private healthcare, insurance, performance bonuses, and more).
  • A workplace culture built on trust, collaboration, and continuous development.
  • Opportunity to work with a diverse, international team of procurement professionals.
