Manage assigned supplier relationships and performance, including corrective actions, delivery recovery, business reviews and improvement activities; escalate significant supplier risks as appropriate.
Support effective inventory management and resolution of purchasing-related invoice and receipt discrepancies.
Track and report procurement and supplier performance metrics, including delivery, quality, cycle time, savings and risk; identify and implement improvement opportunities.
Ensure procurement activities and records comply with company policies, delegated authority, applicable regulatory requirements and QinetiQ standards.

Advanced procurement and sourcing skills with the ability to independently manage complex procurement requirements.
Strong commercial negotiation, analytical and decision-making skills, including evaluation of total cost, technical compliance, quality, delivery and risk.

Strong communication, cross-functional collaboration and influencing skills.
Ability to manage competing priorities and provide functional guidance and mentoring to less-experienced employees.
