This role requires a detail-oriented professional with proven experience in vendor management, cost optimization, and demand planning.

Experience in the CPG industry, especially in personal care and / or confectionery, is highly preferred. This is an individual contributor role that reports to the Director of Supply Chain. This role is fully remote but requires availability during U.S. time zones to ensure seamless collaboration with the team.

  • Problem Solving : Address supply issues such as shortages, defects, or delivery delays in coordination with QC and operations teams.
  • Continuous Improvement : Drive improvements in procurement workflows, cost efficiency, and supplier performance.

Key Responsibilities :

Procurement & Sourcing :

  • Source raw ingredients and packaging materials for CPG products, with a focus on personal care and confectionery categories.

  • Manage supplier onboarding, contract negotiation, and ongoing performance evaluation.
  • Monitor market trends and cost drivers for ingredients and materials.
  • Demand Planning & Inventory Management :

  • Collaborate with supply chain and planning teams to align purchasing activities with sales forecasts and production needs.
  • Maintain appropriate inventory levels to avoid stockouts while minimizing excess stock.
  • Support production readiness for new product launches with timely procurement of components.
  • Vendor Relations :

  • Maintain strong relationships with key suppliers and enforce compliance with contracts and company standards.
  • Track and report vendor performance metrics, including lead time, quality, and delivery reliability.
  • Seek opportunities to consolidate vendors and improve sourcing efficiency.
  • Process Optimization :

  • Recommend and implement improvements in procurement processes and tools.
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date procurement records and documentation.
  • Cultural Alignment :

  • Collaboration : Work seamlessly with internal teams and suppliers to achieve shared objectives.
