Senior Procurement Manager at BURGA is more than just a title — it’s a front-row seat to the evolution of a brand that’s taking the world by storm. You'll be at the heart of an extremely versatile and fast-paced environment, where new collections, campaigns, and product launches will keep you sharp and excited.
Your Role: Take the lead in shaping our procurement strategy to ensure the best quality, cost, and efficiency.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:
- Identify, evaluate and qualify new suppliers against project criteria - technical drawings and data sheets, materials, tooling and capacity, quality standards, minimum order quantities (MOQ), lead time and target cost.
- Negotiate the full commercial package: pricing, payment terms, lead times, capacity reservations, penalties, warranties, and long-term agreements with price indexation.
- Challenge every quote with data: cost breakdowns, should-cost models, and total cost (price, logistics and quality together).
- Manage your category budget and track raw material movements before they reach our product costs.
- Work closely with inventory, quality and production teams to align purchasing with operational needs, especially during new product launches.
- Keep supply stable: backup suppliers, clear supplier KPIs and a regular review cadence, and hands-on resolution when quality claims or delivery issues hit - root cause, financial recovery, prevention.
