· Develop and maintain a supply base that fulfils or surpasses organisational objectives related to delivery, quality, cost, technology and contractual terms. Consistently challenge suppliers to improve their costs and performance.

· Establish and nurture strong working relationships and partnerships with suppliers. This should be built on clear communication, transparency, and mutually agreed contractual terms.

· Create and maintain supplier scorecards, utilising them to inform inventory decisions, communication strategies, and supplier management practices.

· Manage escalations and supplier-related issues, driving cross-functional actions to ensure prompt resolution.

· Prepare, schedule, and conduct commercial reviews with suppliers, ensuring outcomes are clearly documented and communicated.

· Chair the supplier account team for those suppliers requiring intensive support.

· Communicate any significant changes in product or delivery schedules to suppliers and ensure formal acknowledgement of these changes is received.

· Create, update, and maintain ERP parameters so that they accurately reflect mutually agreed contractual arrangements.

Desirable Skills & Experience:

· Demonstrated experience as a strategic buyer (or similar role) with a proven track record of identifying, contracting, managing, and enhancing new suppliers.

· Exceptional negotiation abilities; skilled at translating supply chain goals into mutually acceptable contracts.

· Outstanding commercial insight, evidenced by global supply chain achievements in both sourcing new suppliers and optimising existing partnerships.

· Effective leadership skills, fostering collaboration across teams to achieve timely and successful results.

· Proven ability to build and sustain robust supplier relationships based on clear communication, integrity, and trust.

· Experienced in boosting supplier performance within the supply chain, utilising scorecards to initiate action both internally and externally.

· Extensive knowledge of manufacturing settings, their processes, and ERP systems.

· CIPS Level 4 qualification (or equivalent) or higher.

Our Values:

· We empower each other

· We take ownership

· We speak up

· We care
