Conduct market analysis and supplier intelligence to identify new sourcing opportunities, emerging technologies, cost trends, and supply risks.
Develop and implement risk mitigation strategies to strengthen supply chain resilience.
Manage inventory policies within assigned categories to optimise stock levels, minimise liability, reduce lead times, and support uninterrupted production.

Lead End-of-Life (EOL) and component obsolescence management activities, ensuring proactive continuity planning.
Ensure procurement activities comply with ISO 9001 standards, company procedures, and applicable regulatory requirements.
Support New Product Introduction (NPI) projects by securing appropriate suppliers and ensuring timely material availability.

The Successful Candidate Will Ideally Have

Strong knowledge of the global electronic components market, including supply chain trends, pricing, and availability.
Demonstrated experience in supplier management, commercial negotiation, contract management, and strategic sourcing.
Experience developing sourcing strategies for low-volume, high-mix manufacturing environments.
Ability to interpret technical requirements and communicate effectively with suppliers.
Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to collaborate across Engineering, Production, Quality, and Supply Chain functions.
Excellent analytical, commercial, negotiation, and problem-solving skills.
Experience working within a regulated manufacturing environment (e.g. aerospace, defence or industrial electronics)
Knowledge of supplier quality systems, continuous improvement methodologies, and ISO 9001 standards is desirable.
MCIPS qualification, or working towards CIPS accreditation, would be advantageous. Fully conversant with Microsoft applications.

Additional requirements:
Occasional work outside normal business hours may be required to support business and supplier needs.
The successful candidate must be willing and eligible to obtain UK Security Clearance.
