Jobbeschreibung

Company :

We’ve partnered with a start-up that’s redefining how sustainable metals are procured for some of the world’s most elite and respected brands. Their work spans complex global supply chains, high-stakes projects, and partnerships with vendors and customers at the very top of their industries.

Due to continued growth, they’re looking for the sharp graduate other companies overlook - the one passed over because you “lack experience.” They’d rather invest in your talent, intelligence, and ambition than spend years unpicking someone else’s bad habits.

They’ll teach you their way - the right way - from day one.

What You’ll Do :

• Source materials and manage RFQs from US and global suppliers and customers
• Negotiate with vendors and build strong, lasting relationships
• Coordinate shipping and optimise logistics across multiple projects
• Oversee cross-functional project management with tight deadlines
• Analyse markets and develop smart procurement strategies

What You’ll Bring :

Independent thinking and problem-solving skills - you don’t wait to be told what to do

Resilience to thrive in a fast-moving, high-pressure environment

Ability to quickly master complex supply chains and operations

Confidence when speaking with world-class brands and high-level stakeholders

If you’re looking for a corporate training program, a slow on-ramp into responsibility, or a predictable 9–5, this isn’t for you.

They will hand you real responsibility from day one, support you while you grow, and give you a career foundation most graduates can only dream of.

Location : Based in Germany, remote work with direct collaboration with their California leadership team.

DISCLAIMER : Must be a recent graduate (0–1 year out of school / university) - no prior full-time operations experience required or desired.
