Collaborate with Engineering and Quality teams on product testing, validation plans, qualification activities, and production approval processes.
Support new product development initiatives by sourcing components, identifying capable suppliers, and ensuring timely procurement involvement throughout the product lifecycle.
Develop a thorough understanding of supplier capabilities, manufacturing processes, market dynamics, and emerging technologies relevant to assigned commodities.
Monitor industry trends, market conditions, and supply chain risks to proactively identify opportunities and develop mitigation strategies.
Drive annual cost reduction and value engineering initiatives to achieve budgeted savings targets.
Analyze spend data, market intelligence, and supplier performance metrics to identify opportunities for optimization and continuous improvement.
Provide guidance and mentorship to purchasing team members while promoting best practices in sourcing and supplier management.
