• Contract Management & Negotiation: Lead high-value contract negotiations, securing favorable commercial terms, risk mitigation clauses, IP protection, and long-term price stability.
• Risk & Supply Chain Resilience: Identify supply chain bottlenecks, single-source vulnerabilities, and geopolitical risks; formulate robust mitigation and dual-sourcing strategies.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Quality, R&D, Manufacturing, and Project Management to ensure seamless NPI (New Product Introduction) and on-time project execution.
• Sustainability & Compliance: Ensure all suppliers comply with Siemens' environmental, health, safety (EHS), conflict minerals, and compliance standards (ISO, RoHS, REACH, etc.).

Desired Skills:

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering/Electrical Engineering, Supply Chain Management, or a related technical discipline. (MBA or advanced supply chain certification like CPSM/CIPS is a strong plus).

• Technical Acumen: Ability to read engineering drawings, CAD models, and technical specifications for custom and standard enclosures.
• Commercial Acumen: Proven track record of managing multi-million-dollar spend portfolios, executing complex international contracts, and delivering measurable cost savings.
