About the Role
As an operations buyer, you will play a key role in ensuring that production has the right materials, components, and services in place at the right time. You are responsible for the daily operational procurement work and collaborate closely with production, planning, and logistics. The role also involves an extensive network where you maintain ongoing dialogue with both suppliers and customers to ensure a qualitative, efficient, and well-functioning material flow throughout the supply chain.
The role is broad, with work consisting largely of operational procurement but also logistics-related tasks. In addition to procurement, you are responsible for following up on deliveries, managing supplier contacts, monitoring inventory levels, and supporting the logistics department with transport coordination, delivery monitoring, and customs and import matters. You will be an important part of the company's supply chain and actively contribute to developing and streamlining both procurement and logistics processes.
This position is suitable for you if you thrive in an operational and eventful environment where you can take responsibility, make decisions, and collaborate with many different functions. You have many contact points, both internally and externally, which means that your communication skills and engagement are important success factors in this role.
