Strategic Purchaser
Have you been at sea supported by Humphree stabilizers? We're confident that you'd remember. Our systems make the difference between joy and seasickness. Join us, let's make everyone love the sea!
We pride ourselves to bring the smartest products and services to the market, with no compromise between performance and efficiency at sea. We've also received several business and innovation awards in recognition of the journey we've made so far. Our business is growing and so is our demand for the right people. We're now looking for our next Strategic Purchaser.
As Strategic Purchaser your main responsibilities is to keep the balance between maintaining existing and developing new suppliers to ensure the delivery of certain products to our projects. You will make sure that they have valid contracts, cooperate with the Supplier Quality Engineer to approve new suppliers and understanding of when to negotiate the prices – as well as maintaining a good relationship and the quality of the products.
We’re Looking for You … … Who are always enthusiastic about finding smarter solutions and no task is too great or too small.. You’re not afraid of trying new things or taking risks, but you make sure to do the proper analysis beforehand.
Who are you?
You are a team player with lots of initiatives, who feels comfortable in the driver’s seat and knows to adjust to different situations with a healthy portion of self-confidence. To solve problems, you can think and act fast, and keep things as simple as possible. You don’t need guidance to spot situations that require your attention, or to see improvements.
We work in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, therefore it is a strong advantage if you master that business system. You have excellent communication skills in English, orally and written. We also require a drivers license.
If you enjoy working in a group, have good collaboration skills and are service oriented, you will fit in well with us. At the same time, you need to be able to work independently, solve daily problems and be structured. Your way of working is methodical and systematic, and we want to be able to feel secure that you are thorough in what you undertake. If you are also interested in driving development and improvement of both you and our processes, we will be a great fit together.
You have a Technical Bachelor's degree or having achieved this level through work experience in Sourcing, Supply Management or Logistics.
You have strong language skills in both English and Swedish.
You have multiple years of experience in purchasing on a tactical or strategic level.
Why Humphree? We’re an ambitious team of specialists who not only believe in stable technology at sea, but also in a stable workplace. We regard engagement as a key factor to great results and strive to always make our work inspiring. We’re now about to set off for our greatest adventure as yet, and hope to find a colleague and friend in you. Are you our next Strategic Purchaser? We’ll be happy to meet you. Is it you who will join our crew of specialists and lead us into the future? This is a full-time, permanent position that we hope to fill as soon as possible, so don’t wait too long with your application.
