We are seeking a high-energy purchasing expert with an engineering background to drive cost-reduction initiatives for our clients. This is a "hands-on" consulting role where you will be responsible for the entire purchasing cycle—from technical sourcing to final delivery.
We need a candidate who is assertive, dynamic, and thrives under pressure. You will not be micromanaged; we expect you to own the relationship with vendors and ensure our customers receive maximum value through aggressive negotiation and technical validation.

- Conduct detailed technical and commercial evaluations of all incoming bids.
- Use the eAuction tool and complete the purchasing process
2. Aggressive Vendor Negotiation
- Lead direct negotiations with suppliers to achieve targeted cost-reduction benchmarks.
- Challenge vendor pricing structures by leveraging your engineering knowledge of materials and processes.
- Negotiate favourable payment terms, delivery schedules, and quality SLAs.
- Constantly scout and vet current vendors to maintain a competitive and high-performing supply chain.
3. Customer & Stakeholder Management
- Act as the primary point of contact for customers regarding procurement status and savings achieved.
- Collaborate with customer engineering teams to understand technical specifications and identify alternative parts or materials.
- Provide regular, concise updates to customers on project milestones and lead-time risks.
4. Analytical Execution
- Use Excel to create side-by-side commercial comparisons of vendor quotes.
- Analyse price trends and lead-time data to provide actionable insights.
- Maintain 100% accuracy in documentation, including contracts, price lists, and compliance records.
