Jobbeschreibung

At Red Bull Switzerland, the Operations team makes sure our product is always in the right place, at the right time, in the right condition – and that our events and activations run like clockwork behind the scenes.

As Procurement Manager, you will take full ownership of establishing and shaping the Procurement function within Red Bull Switzerland. Reporting to the Head of Operations, you will drive transparency, unlock value, and enable smart, efficient sourcing across a wide range of categories, from logistics and media to events and promotional materials.

This is a highly visible role with strategic impact. You will act as a key business partner, collaborating across departments and with Global Procurement to embed best-in-class processes, challenge the status quo, and position Procurement as a true driver of business performance.

Strategic procurement

You will build and embed the Procurement function within the organisation, setting the foundation for long-term success. This includes developing and implementing local procurement policies, processes, and governance in line with global standards. You will define a clear procurement roadmap, create transparency across third-party spend, and proactively identify opportunities for optimisation, efficiency, and value creation. As part of this journey, you will drive change management and position Procurement as a trusted and value-adding function across the business.

Strategic Sourcing & Supplier Management

You will take the lead on key sourcing initiatives, driving end-to-end procurement processes from strategy definition to contract finalisation. This includes shaping category strategies, identifying consolidation opportunities, and leading supplier negotiations to deliver the best value across pricing, quality, and risk. You will establish strong, transparent relationships with key suppliers, implement performance management frameworks, and ensure sustainability requirements are embedded into all sourcing activities.

Stakeholder management & Innovation

You will act as a strategic advisor to internal stakeholders, working closely with budget owners and department leads to align procurement strategies with business needs. Through strong collaboration and data-driven insights, you will optimise spend and enhance decision-making. You will track and communicate procurement performance, ensuring clear visibility on KPIs, savings, and broader value contributions, while maintaining close alignment with Global Procurement and contributing to cross-regional initiatives.

• 4-5+ years’ experience in indirect procurement (e.g. logistics, warehousing, fleet/travel, events, media, marketing or business services) with a strong track record in strategic sourcing and contract negotiations.
• Strong analytical and data skills, confident with Excel, ERP and BI tools (e.g. SAP, dashboards) and used to working with KPIs and reports.
• Proven ability to manage demanding stakeholders (Marketing, Sales, Operations, Finance) and act as a trusted business partner.
• Excellent communication and negotiation skills, with solid understanding of contracts and a high level of integrity and compliance awareness.
• Fluent in German and English (written and spoken); comfortable in a fast-paced, marketing-driven environment and flexible to support key events when needed.
