Senior Procurement Manager

2 months ago

Southfield, United States ABC Technologies Full time

A Senior Manager of Procurement in an automotive company plays a critical role leading the commodity procurement team to optimize strategic sourcing, develop and execute cost savings activity, and manage a global supply base to support ABC manufacturing operations. The role involves strategic planning, supplier relationship management, and cost optimization to ensure a reliable and efficient supply chain.


Budget Planning and Forecasting: Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including finance, engineering, and operations, working with the commodity team to develop annual procurement budgets and forecasts for assigned commodities. Analyze historical spending patterns, market trends, and demand forecasts to estimate future procurement needs and budgetary requirements accurately.

Cost Analysis and Negotiation: Guide commodity managers through detailed cost analysis and benchmarking to identify opportunities for cost savings, value optimization, and process efficiencies within the commodity supply chain. As required, support commodity managers with negotiating pricing, terms, and contracts with suppliers to secure competitive pricing, volume discounts, and favorable payment terms while maintaining quality standards and supply chain reliability.


Strategic Sourcing: Ensure the sourcing of purchased components follows commodity strategy, in addition to meeting cost, quality and delivery requirements established by the program team. Support commodity managers through detailed pricing analysis and supplier negotiations to ensure lowest total landed cost is achieved. Leverage new sourcings to provide savings opportunities to the organization.

Supplier Management and Performance Monitoring: Direct commodity buyer sourcing strategies to select suppliers based on factors such as cost competitiveness, quality, reliability, technical capabilities, and financial stability. Develop strategic relationships with key suppliers to drive continuous improvement initiatives, cost reduction programs, and value-added opportunities. Monitor supplier performance against established metrics, such as cost savings targets, quality standards, on-time delivery, and responsiveness, and take corrective actions as needed.

Value Engineering and Cost Reduction Initiatives: Work with cross-functional leaders to collaborate with suppliers, engineering teams, and other stakeholders to identify opportunities for value engineering, product optimization, and cost reduction through design innovation, material substitutions, and process improvements. Implement cost reduction initiatives, such as lean manufacturing practices, standardization efforts, and supply chain optimization projects, to achieve targeted cost savings and improve profitability.

Risk Management and Mitigation: Support supply risk initiatives to ensure continuity of supply at ABC plants. Assess and mitigate risks related to commodity price volatility, supply chain disruptions, geopolitical factors, and regulatory changes that may impact costs and procurement strategies. Develop risk mitigation strategies, such as hedging, inventory management, dual sourcing, and contingency planning, to minimize the impact of unforeseen events on cost and supply chain continuity.

Budget Performance Tracking and Reporting: Monitor and track procurement spending, cost savings initiatives, and budget variances against established targets and key performance indicators (KPIs). Prepare regular reports and presentations for senior management, highlighting budget performance, cost savings achievements, supplier performance, and strategic recommendations for continuous improvement.
