As a Purchaser EngineeredSolutions APF you are responsible for the tactical and operational purchasing process. You participate in the multidisciplinary project teams and contribute to the general customer satisfaction for customer specific projects. You monitor the specific targets of the suppliers such as quality, on time delivery and cost. For the relatively simple projects, the necessary special parts are mainly located within the general commodities that also are used for the standard products.

For the recurring special products and options, you select the suitable suppliers and make general logistical and price agreements. You also support the proposal department at the quotation phase of the projects in making a pre selection of possible suppliers and assisting in requesting budget prices and possible delivery times. You systematically look for synergies with standard purchasing, other EngineeredSolutions entities, and with colleagues from other product companies in order to exchange knowledge and strengthen the joint purchasing position versus the suppliers. We expect you to initiate savings and bring them into completion. In this role, you are part of the EngineeredSolutions organization and you report to the Team Leader Purchasing.
