Do you want to play a key role within our supply chain? As an NPI Logistic Buyer, you ensure that our engineering and production teams have timely access to the right materials for prototypes and new product introductions.

• You work closely with engineering, planning, warehouse and suppliers to align material requirements in a timely manner.
• You build sustainable relationships with suppliers and engage them early in new projects to reduce risks and mitigate potential issues.
• Based on the production planning, you place purchase orders and proactively follow up on orders and deliveries to ensure the timely availability of materials.
• In case of deviations (late deliveries, delayed confirmations, overdue deliveries, missing documents, payment issues, etc.), you act as a representative of the company and work together with suppliers to find solutions.
• You ensure the timely resolution of damaged goods and quality issues in collaboration with suppliers.
• You communicate design changes to suppliers and assess their impact on ongoing orders.
• You maintain an overview of multiple projects and stakeholders and independently set the right priorities.
• You are responsible for maintaining supplier master data in the ERP system, including quotations, lead times and country of origin.
