  • Lead the strategic sourcing process by ensuring that the product is matched to the right supplier, and they are effective in delivering the product in collaboration with Engineering
  • Lead contractual negotiations with suppliers on Non-disclosure Agreements, General Terms & Conditions and Production Supply Agreements
Qualifications:
  • Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Engineering, or a related field
  • 3+ years managing commercial business relationships with large suppliers in an Automotive, Transportation manufacturing related, or high-volume manufacturing business.
  • Ability to understand Engineering and Design direction and provide focused supply-chain solutions accordingly

  • Experience negotiation and managing seating suppliers
  • Experience with automotive, electronic, or consumer products, and the design and manufacture thereof
  • 5+ years MS Office
