Job description

We are committed to transparency and equal treatment, therefore we particularly welcome applications from all age groups, regardless of gender, disabilities, origin, social and ethnic background, religion, ideology or sexual identity.

Is procurement more to you than comparing offers and processing orders? Do you take a holistic view of procurement processes – from supplier selection and information security and quality requirements to certifications – and want to shape them together with your team? Then you’ve come to the right place!

Your Mission

• You provide professional leadership to our procurement team and further develop the procurement department and our procurement processes in a targeted manner.
• You are responsible for the operational procurement of the Fabasoft Group and also get hands‑on yourself – from requesting quotations and selecting suppliers through order processing to invoice checking and handling complaints.
• You maintain and develop our supplier relationships, conduct price and contract negotiations and are responsible for the annual supplier evaluation.
• You actively shape the digitalization of our procurement processes and contribute your expertise to the introduction of SAP S/4HANA as well as other optimization projects.
• You participate in internal and external audits and ensure that our procurement processes are transparent, traceable and in line with our quality standards.
• You create and promote a corporate culture in which ambition, responsibility, innovation and excellence are lived.

Your Profile

• You have completed commercial vocational training and have several years of professional experience in operational procurement – ideally in a technology environment.
• You have experience in designing and optimizing procurement processes and have solid SAP knowledge (SAP S/4HANA is a plus).
• You are hands‑on, think in a solution‑oriented manner, and keep an overview even when faced with different requirements and priorities.
• You are aware of your responsibilities, lead by example, and demonstrate a strong commitment to performance – with clarity and conviction, you provide functional leadership to your team and seek direct, constructive dialogue even in challenging situations.
• Very good German and English skills round off your profile.

We really care for experts – and we show it with:

• first‑class catering (breakfast, coffee, drinks, fruit and much more) and fantastic team events
• an inspiring work environment with state‑of‑the‑art office standards
• a stress‑free, sustainable commute (generous support for climate tickets and other annual network cards, free e‑shuttle from the train station to HQ and back)
• a monthly home office quota and flexible working hours
• an above‑average salary (approx. EUR 4,800 gross per month based on a 38.5‑hour working week, depending on your experience and qualifications)
• … to be continued

We design business processes in a digital world - including our application process. That is why we only accept applications submitted via the form on our website.
