Are you ready to play a key role in shaping the future of sustainable energy? An exciting opportunity has arisen for a highly motivated and entrepreneurial individual to join a rapidly growing global leader in energy infrastructure striving towards a carbon-neutral future.

With procurement being entirely greenfield, you'll make a significant impact by shaping and owning the regional equipment category, overseeing an initial spend of €150-200 million. Excitingly, the company is expanding rapidly, growing procurement this year and planning to double again by the end of 2025 - putting you in a fantastic position for progression opportunities.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and execute regional and global procurement strategies for technical categories, focusing on rotating equipment, mechanical components, and other critical infrastructure needs
  • Lead negotiations and manage both long and short global/regional framework agreements
  • Develop and implement structured procurement strategies, leveraging the 7-step sourcing process to optimise spend and supplier relationships
  • Collaborate with technical stakeholders to ensure procurement strategies align with operational and technical requirements
  • Travel to various sites across Europe to oversee procurement activities and engage with on-site teams

Candidate Profile:

  • 3+ years of procurement experience
  • Exposure to any CAPEX, OPEX, EPC, equipment, engineering etc is desirable
  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, evolving environment
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with a willingness to "roll up the sleeves" and drive results in a greenfield setting
  • Ability and willingness to travel regularly to sites across Europe

This is a rare opportunity for an ambitious procurement professional to take on a pivotal role in a company that is not only growing exponentially but also making a significant impact in the energy transition, so apply now if interested.
