• Bidding & Project Support: Collaborate with sales and tendering teams during the bidding phase by calculating competitive logistics costs and securing supplier capacity.
• Contract Monitoring & Supplier Performance: Ensure contract compliance, track timely logistics delivery targets, and maintain strong, long-term commercial partnerships.

• Experience: Open to profiles ranging from high-potential candidates (1–2 years) to consolidated/senior procurement specialists (+5 years) in strategic sourcing, commercial negotiation, or service management within multinational environments.
• Industry Focus: Highly desirable experience in procuring services within transportation, logistics, construction, infrastructure, energy, or other project-based industrial sectors.
• Commercial & Financial Skills: Strong negotiation profile with a solid ability to interpret numbers, run financial benchmarks, and communicate persuasively.
• Procurement Tools: Proficient in sourcing processes and procurement platforms (knowledge of SAP Ariba is a plus).
• Languages: Fluent English (spoken and written) is required for daily collaboration with international teams and regional suppliers. (German is an advantage).

Competencies & Profile

• Autonomy & Proactivity: Self-driven profile (Individual Contributor), results-oriented, and able to manage priorities independently.
• Communication & Relationship Leadership: Ability to communicate clearly, influence, and negotiate with diverse internal and external stakeholders simultaneously.
• Analytical Mindset: Capacity to translate numerical data into commercial strategies and negotiation leverage.
• Alignment with Values: Accountability, Simplicity, Collaboration, and Passion for driving positive change in the energy transition.
