TRUE QUALITY IS THE PRODUCT OF WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT.

SHARE YOUR PASSION.

Product quality always begins at source – with procurement. That's why it takes people with uncompromising standards, exceptional business acumen and real determination to procure exciting and innovative materials for our bespoke vehicles. But the job doesn't just end there. In their pursuit of excellence, our team is tasked with managing the introduction of a vast array of bespoke features from a diverse range of specialised, sustainable sources.

As an essential part of our Bespoke purchasing and parts quality team, your responsibilities will include:

  • Leading a team of buyers whose primary task is to secure the supply of low-volume Bespoke components and carefully select suitable suppliers in accordance with agreed-upon cost, quality, and time objectives.
  • Assessing design schemes and providing technical feasibility on appropriate suppliers and manufacturing processes. To achieve this, you must possess a solid understanding of vehicle component engineering and manufacturing processes.
  • Discovering new and innovative low-volume suppliers capable of meeting Rolls-Royce's stringent quality standards. You should also have experience with modern structured sourcing processes that will enable you to deliver timely supplier nominations, aligned with defined project milestone requirements and the company's purchasing processes.
  • Being a skilled negotiator who understands how to analyse costs and negotiate prices with suppliers to ensure the best possible value for money, while taking into account design, volume, and timing constraints.
  • Demonstrating expertise in project management processes to ensure that all parts are supplied according to the required quality standards and within the planned delivery timeline.
  • Proactively resolving supplier issues and fostering a collaborative approach to developing business relationships with all parties involved.
  • Possessing a minimum of 3 years of purchasing management experience and the ability to lead teams within a complex new product development environment.

Qualifications:

  • A degree (or equivalent) and ideally a CIPS qualification.
  • Experience of production component purchasing within an automotive environment or equivalent manufacturing environment.
  • Experience in managing professional supplier selection processes.
  • Experience of handling commercial negotiations with external suppliers.
  • Experience of project management and an understanding of new product development processes.
  • Good problem solving ability required to overcome problems arising from specific cost, quality, time issues.
  • Good interpersonal skills with an ability to influence key stakeholders.
  • Experience of managing and leading purchasing teams.
