Your day as a Project Buyer?

Ready to tackle some challenges? You start your day by gaining a good overview of the progress in your various projects. You have two meetings scheduled with two project teams for which you pro-actively prepare to address any obstacles hindering progress. Clear communication is key when discussing project statuses and for defining strategy the way forward.

Following the meetings, you connect with module builders to assess supply chain risks over the next two months. A quick scan of the order book highlights potential obstacles for the week ahead, encouraging you to approach bottlenecks suppliers for special arrangements.

In the afternoon, you sit for your weekly review with the Supplier Quality Engineer, addressing rejects and inspection findings to secure the supply chain. Preparing for the bottleneck analysis of Project X, you ensure efficiency for tomorrow’s meeting with the responsible Project Manager.

Before leaving for the day, you follow up on quotation requests, evaluating bids against budget constraints. After achieving alignment with project parameters, you collect necessary approvals and proceed to release orders to your strategic partner. Satisfied with your day’s accomplishments, you are looking forward to tackling tomorrow’s challenges.

• 1 to 2 years relevant work experience as a Buyer and/or within another Supply Chain position;
• Excellent writing and verbal skills in English and/or Dutch;
