GENERAL INFORMATION
Supply Chain Specialist (m/f/x) with a focus on Supply Planning & Operational Procurement
Location: Porto/Heidenheim a.d. Brenz/Berlin/Antalya/Riga or remote (Portugal/Germany/Latvia)
Starting: at the next possible date
YOUR PROFILE
HOW YOU’LL BE KILLING IT:
- You possess a bachelor’s (or higher) degree in Business Administration, Supply Chain Management, or a comparable program.
- You can reap the expertise gained in 1-3 years of professional experience in a similar environment.
- Thanks to your experience, working with advanced planning and ERP systems doesn’t chill you to the bone.
- A combination of your team player qualities, a focus on improvement, a strong drive for results, and your outstanding written and verbal communication skills, are the skeleton of your successful everyday work.
- Your strong problem solving and conflict resolution skills are more than just a myth and have been proven in practice.
- Your analytical skills are almost legendary.
YOUR TASKS
THE SOUL OF YOUR TASKS:
- You create, monitor, and maintain feasible end-to-end supply and inventory plans, and ensure they align with business strategies, targets, and constraints alike, so they won’t lead to a dead end.
- You provide system availability of all existing and future supply chain configurations.
- You balance forecast and demand, make sure to avoid stock-outs and overstocking, and automate the ordering of products, so supply is never stuck in limbo.
- At the same time, you don’t accept sales forecasts as final judgement, but challenge and validate them first.
- You don’t put on a grim face when it comes to cooperation with interface partners such as Quality, Artworks, and Logistics, or when you act as a partner to determine the impact of projects and strategic decisions on volumes and inventory.
- The preparation of purchase requisitions as well as execution and follow-up on purchase orders are also part of the circle of procurement life for you.
- Analytical work doesn’t bore you out of your skull: Instead, you perform ABC / XYZ classification of all products, assure accurate master data for suppliers and products, leverage a planning system, and take care of monitoring and maintaining all relevant planning parameters and data.
