Being a Buyer with us means playing a key role at the heart of manufacturing operations by ensuring the optimal supply of raw materials required for production, while balancing cost, quality, and delivery timelines.

This position represents a strategic opportunity for a recent university graduate looking to launch a career in supply chain within a structured and ambitious manufacturing environment. We strongly believe in developing emerging talent and supporting growth toward leadership roles.

As a Buyer, you will work in a dynamic manufacturing environment, collaborating closely with planning, production, and suppliers. Your analytical skills, rigor, and interpersonal abilities will have a direct impact on operational performance and customer satisfaction.

This role is part of our organizational succession plan. The selected candidate will benefit from structured mentoring, progressive responsibility development, and cross-functional exposure to key strategic areas of the company, with the objective of advancing into management roles in the medium term.

 

On a daily basis, you will: 

• Manage your supplier portfolio and ensure production line supply according to MRP and specific requirements;
• Purchase raw materials in compliance with approved suppliers, operational constraints, and cost objectives;
• Monitor purchase orders to ensure the right product is delivered at the right time and in the right quantity;
• Review and approve disputed invoices;
• Manage returns of defective products with suppliers;

• Plan requirements, place orders, and follow up with subcontractors;
• Work closely with internal teams, particularly planning and operations;
• Perform statistical analyses and produce reports;
• Maintain the ERP system and ensure data accuracy;
• Optimize spare parts inventory turnover.

In addition to operational responsibilities, the selected candidate will be entrusted with a major structuring project: implementing and optimizing the Procure-to-Pay (P2P) process, including mapping current processes, identifying improvement opportunities, standardizing practices, ensuring cross-functional alignment (purchasing, finance, receiving), and implementing performance indicators. This project will provide high visibility with senior management and serve as a key developmental experience.

You are the person we are looking for if you have:

• A Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA), a certificate in Operations Management, or a college diploma (DEC) in Supply Management;
