Manage strategic third-party manufacturing relationships, including tool transfer projects, component lifecycle management, obsolescence planning, design improvements, and cost-reduction initiatives.
Collaborate with Procurement and Engineering teams in Oslo to support inventory planning, forecasting accuracy, and supplier performance.
Support Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs), providing insights into supplier performance, tool maintenance planning, and spare parts management.
Generate procurement reports and cost analyses to support business decision-making and continuous improvement.
Support broader Dundee procurement activities as required by the Supervisor, Procurement, Planning & Control.
