The R&D Procurement Lead supports the execution of sourcing strategies for Qnity’s R&D external spend, including lab supplies, equipment & instrumentation, lab services, testing, and contracted research. The role manages supplier relationships, leads sourcing events, and collaborates with stakeholders to ensure value, service, and compliance.

This role partners closely with R&D, Engineering, Operations, Finance, Legal, and site leadership to ensure sourcing strategies support innovation velocity, technical rigor, regulatory compliance, and cost competitiveness as Qnity scales as an independent company.

Key Responsibilities

Category Strategy & Value Creation

• Develop, maintain, and execute global R&D category strategies aligned with Qnity’s business priorities, growth plans, and procurement transformation roadmap.
• Apply advanced category management levers (demand management, specification alignment, supplier consolidation, should‑cost/TCO analysis) to deliver measurable cost savings, cost avoidance, and productivity gains.
• Translate R&D needs (speed, flexibility, innovation, quality) into fit‑for‑purpose sourcing and contracting strategies that balance agility with governance.

Strategic Sourcing & Contracting

• Lead global and regional RFPs/RFIs for R&D categories, embedding cross‑site and SME input early to ensure adoption and reduce rework.
• Negotiate and manage master service agreements (MSAs), framework agreements, and pricing structures for R&D suppliers, ensuring strong commercial, legal, and risk positions.
• Drive standardization of terms, pricing models, SLAs, and performance metrics across regions and sites.

Supplier Relationship Management (SRM)

• Own strategic supplier relationships for R&D categories, including performance management, QBRs, issue resolution, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Partner with key suppliers to unlock innovation, technical capability, service improvements, and supply assurance, not just unit‑price reductions.
• Ensure supplier strategies support Qnity’s global footprint of R&D facilities and evolving technology needs.

Business & Stakeholder Partnership

• Act as a trusted procurement partner to R&D leaders, scientists, engineers, and site teams by embedding procurement early in planning and project discussions.
• Gather and incorporate voice‑of‑the‑customer input into category strategies, sourcing decisions, and contract negotiations.
• Lead and mentor regional buyers, sub‑category managers, and efficiency buyers supporting R&D spend.

Governance, Compliance & Execution

• Ensure sourcing and contracting activities comply with Qnity procurement policies, legal requirements, and internal controls.
• Oversee contract implementation, supplier onboarding, and performance tracking to minimize leakage and ensure value realization.
• Drive root‑cause analysis and corrective actions for supplier, contract, or operational issues impacting R&D delivery

Skills, Knowledge & Abilities

• Strong understanding of R&D procurement dynamics, including technical requirements, service‑based sourcing, and innovation‑driven supplier markets.
• Demonstrated ability to perform complex analyses (e.g., TCO, should‑cost, NPV, value‑based trade‑offs) and translate insights into clear recommendations.
• Proven negotiation, influence, and stakeholder‑management skills across technical and non‑technical audiences.
• Ability to manage multiple global initiatives in a fast‑moving, transformation environment.
• Strong ethical standards and commitment to compliance and governance.

Education & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Sciences, Supply Chain, Business, or related field. Advanced degree preferred.
• Minimum of 4 years of procurement and supply chain experience.
• Exposure to R&D, laboratory, or technically complex service categories is a strong plus.
• Prior experience negotiating global or multi‑site agreements with strong understanding of commercial and legal terms.
• Advanced Excel skills; strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office and SharePoint.
• CPSM or equivalent professional certification preferred.
