About This Role
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and execute end to end category strategies for raw materials, indirect services, and subcontractors. Move beyond 'three quotes' to analyze Total Cost of Ownership and long-term value.
- Identify inefficiencies in current workflows. Design and implement leaner, faster P2P cycle to drive organizational agility.
- Build and maintain dynamic dashboards using advanced Google Sheets (Power Query/Pivot) or Power BI. Pioneer the use of Generative AI for market intelligence, contract analysis, and automated reporting.
- Manage the entire procurement lifecycle with minimal hand holding. Take full accountability for results, from initial stakeholder requirements to final vendor performance.
- Navigate the volatile UAE market, managing supplier rate-change requests and global logistics disruptions to protect Contribution Margins (CM) and ensure plant continuity.
- Act as a trusted advisor to Finance, Operations, and Senior Leadership. Communicate complex procurement data as clear, actionable business insights.
- Oversee contracts, critical spare parts sourcing, and outsourced processing to ensure zero business disruption.
- Collaborating with Engineering and Operations to perform "Function vs. Cost" analysis on high-spend items.
- Implementing "Should-Cost" modeling to challenge supplier pricing during complex negotiations.
Candidate Profile & Requirements
- Experience: 5+ years in Procurement, with at least 3 years in a Senior or Strategic capacity (UAE market experience is mandatory).
- Technical Mastery: Expert-level Excel skills (Power Query, Power Pivot, Data Modeling). Deep familiarity with ERP systems.
- Digital Mindset: Strong interest or experience in AI transformation, predictive analytics, and process automation.
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Business, or Engineering. Professional certification (CIPS Level 4/5 or CPSM) is highly preferred.
- Soft Skills: High emotional intelligence, exceptional negotiation skills, and the ability to influence C-suite stakeholders.
- Mindset: Someone who creates systems rather than just following existing manuals.
