Job description

YOUR NEW EMPLOYER

Innovation isn't just a buzzword – it's your new employer's way of life. As Australia's leading electrical manufacturing powerhouse, they are dedicated to pushing boundaries and shaping the future of renewable energy. And now, they are shaking things up in their procurement team with a brand-new opportunity just for you.  Your new employer is all about solutions, turning roadblocks into opportunities. And despite being Australia's largest privately owned electrical manufacturing business – with a whopping 50% growth year on year – they still have that nimble, agile vibe of a family-owned business.


YOUR NEW ROLE

As a passionate and curious Category Specialist owning the Renewable Energy Category within their dynamic procurement team, this newly created role offers complete ownership and empowerment to make a real impact.

Responsibilities:

  • Manage data, control spending, and engage stakeholders to drive cost savings
  • Utilising market research to develop strategies to enhance supply chain opportunities.
  • Act as a "reverse salesperson," strategising to secure stronger ties with manufacturers.
  • Define and implement category strategies in line with the organisation’s guiding principles.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with teams across all sites to drive process improvements.
  • Travel to other sites and customer/supplier locations as required.
  • Attend expos to keep ahead of new products in the Renewable Energy field.

   
ABOUT YOU

We're searching for someone with a real passion for renewables and an insatiable curiosity. You're the type who's always asking, "How can we make this better?" – digging into past purchases, understanding where everything goes, and why it’s needed. Your mission? Turn that data into gold, enticing manufacturers to line up exclusively to work with you and score sweet deals.  You will also have:

  • Demonstrated experience in procurement, planning, logistics, and inventory.
  • Strong analytical skills and business acumen.
  • Proven ability to drive continuous improvement and optimise supply chain operations.
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills.
  • Experience in tender and contract management, preferably in a manufacturing environment.
  
If you've got a knack for procurement, planning, and all things inventory, along with a fierce dedication to continuous improvement – we want you! Previous experience in tender and contract management? Even better.
