This role ensures the efficient sourcing, purchasing, and delivery of goods and services—both locally and internationally—while maintaining optimal inventory levels and supporting production continuity.

    • International Procurement:
    • Manage significant international procurement spend, ensuring compliance with global trade regulations.
    • Oversee relationships with international shipping and logistics providers.
    • Lead planning and execution of international procurement, focusing on long-lead-time components.
    • Expedite critical imports based on accurate forecasting and production needs.
    • Support import/export activities for affiliated group companies.
    • Ensure international procurement processes are optimized for speed and reliability.
  • Supply Chain Management:

  • Oversee the complete supply chain process from sales order through procurement, shipping, and delivery to stores.

  • Act immediately on shortages, prioritizing procurement and logistics to ensure uninterrupted production and timely delivery of parts.
  • Continuously evaluate and improve supply chain processes to enhance responsiveness and reduce lead times.
  • Inventory & Forecasting:
  • Collaborate with relevant departments to forecast demand and maintain optimal stock levels in a dynamic supply and demand environment.

Key Performance Areas (KPAs):

  • Delivery Lead Time (Sales Order to Invoicing):

  • Evaluate sales orders for stock shortages and initiate timely procurement.

  • Ensure rapid sourcing and delivery of components to support production schedules.
  • Facilitate clear communication between stores, procurement, and production regarding estimated delivery timelines for both local and international items.

  • Procurement Spend & Profitability:

  • Monitor procurement expenditures to ensure alignment with budgetary constraints.

  • Implement cost-saving initiatives to maintain and improve gross profit margins.

Required Qualifications & Experience:

  • Expert-level knowledge of Syspro ERP systems
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel.
  • In-depth knowledge of import/export regulations and processes.
  • Strong background in manufacturing supply chain management.
  • Demonstrated experience in leading and managing large, diverse teams.
  • Self-motivated with the ability to operate independently and solve complex challenges with minimal oversight.

Additional Requirements:

  • A track record of successfully implementing solutions in complex and problematic supply chain environments.
  • Demonstrated ability to identify and resolve inefficiencies in warehouse operations, leading to improved inventory accuracy and reduced stock discrepancies.
