Team Leader Procurement

Our client is an established Swiss company with a strong market position and a nationwide organization. For the further development of procurement, we are looking for an experienced personality who enjoys taking responsibility, bringing people together, and developing pragmatic solutions.

In this leadership role, you will take responsibility for operational procurement and lead a well-established team. It is not about simply continuing what exists. You will have the opportunity to question processes, improve collaboration across different areas, and further develop procurement together with your team.

What awaits you

You and your team will ensure that materials are available reliably, economically, and at the right time. At the same time, you will maintain a holistic view and further develop structures and working methods where it makes sense.

Your tasks include, among others:

• Leadership and further development of the procurement team
• Coordination of operational purchasing activities
• Further development of processes, responsibilities, and collaboration
• Maintenance and development of important supplier relationships
• Support of negotiations and commercial agreements
• Close cooperation with Category Management, Supply Chain, and Sales
• Ensuring a reliable and economical supply of goods
• Participation in the further development of systems and digital processes

What you bring with you

We are not looking for theorists, but for a personality who understands procurement, enjoys working with people, and drives changes with moderation.

You bring experience in purchasing or procurement and have already led teams. A background in the building materials trade, technical trade, or an industrial environment is an advantage.

Furthermore, the following are important to us:

• Joy in leadership and in the development of employees
• A good understanding of purchasing and supply chain processes
• Negotiation skills and entrepreneurial thinking
• A structured and at the same time pragmatic way of working
• Experience with ERP systems, ideally SAP
• Very good German skills as well as very good French skills (mandatory)
• Willingness to travel within Switzerland

What makes the task special

Here you will find a leadership task with real creative freedom. Procurement has a high priority within the company and is intended to continue to develop in the future.

You can contribute your own ideas, simplify processes, and help shape a modern, well-connected procurement organization together with your team. In doing so, you will work with various internal contact persons and operate in a down-to-earth, entrepreneurially oriented environment.

You can expect attractive employment conditions, modern work equipment, good pension benefits, as well as a company vehicle that can also be used privately.

Interested?

Do you want to not only organize procurement but also further develop it together with a team? Then we look forward to getting to know you.
