• Asia Supplier Discovery: Identifying potential suppliers across Asia, executing initial due diligence, and conducting targeted regional benchmarking.
• Sourcing Execution: Compliantly executing regional sourcing projects, standard processes (RfIs, RfQs, RfPs), and eSourcing tools for on-market products and New Product Introductions (NPI).
• Demand Aggregation: Analyzing site user requirements, aggregating regional demand to maximize leverage, and escalating non-standard requests to Category Management.
• Project& Risk Management: Developing comprehensive project plans (timelines, milestones, resources) and proactively identifying and mitigating risks to objectives.
• Contract Lifecycle: Setting up template-based contracts (such as CDAs and SOWs) and accurately managing their lifecycle repository, renewals, and potential contractual improvements.
• Operational Excellence: Utilizing enterprise tools (SAP, myBuy) and master data management to simplify workflows and ensure strict compliance with global procurement policies.
• Metrics& CSR: Tracking operational targets and customer service metrics (such as cycle times and compliance) while championing supplier diversity, sustainability, and ethical practices.
• Collaboration& Exposure: Partnering with support functions (like Accounts Payable) to clear administrative bottlenecks and presenting regular KPI and project updates to the Sourcing Lead and regional stakeholders.

Who you are

We strive to keep our standards high and look for analytical problem-solvers with a strong customer-service focus.

• Education: University degree (Business/Life Sciences preferred) is required; an MBA or CIPS certification is highly desirable.
• Experience: 3–5+ years in procurement or sourcing, specializing in tactical sourcing (spot buying), contract management, and contributing to cost-reduction initiatives.
• Market Expertise: Strong regional sourcing and NPI experience across complex direct categories (such as Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS)& e-components, Plastics& Packaging, or Biologicals& Chemicals).
• AI& Digitalization: Advanced knowledge in AI application and a strong affinity to explore AI-driven solutions broadly, particularly regarding the digital transformation of operations (Digital 2.0 / Industry 4.0).
• Systems& Analytics: Strong experience with Business Enterprise Systems (specifically SAP), myBuy, Procure-to-Pay (P2P) workflows, eSourcing/eAuction platforms, master data management, and BI tools like Tableau and ThoughtSpot.
• Mindset& Soft Skills: A highly analytical thinker with a "process-first" mindset focused on removing friction from the sourcing cycle, managing project timelines, and navigating conflicting priorities.
• Languages: Business-level fluency in English is required; Chinese language skills are a strong asset.
