- Education: University degree (Business/Life Sciences preferred); MBA and CIPS certification highly preferred.
- Experience: 3–5+ years in procurement or sourcing, specializing in tactical sourcing (spot buying), contract management, and contributing to cost-reduction or value-improvement programs.
