Lead Strategic Procurement Transformation -- 2

This project centers on a full-scale transformation of how we buy Packaging Materials, Medical Devices, and Pharmaceutical excipients. I need end-to-end strategic sourcing that goes beyond price chasing and tackles total cost, risk, and speed to market.

Scope
• Shape and execute category strategies that align with business goals and quality standards for our regulated environment.
• Drive competitive events (RFx, e-auctions, direct negotiations) and lock in measurable cost savings while preserving supplier innovation.
• Rationalise the current supplier base, build partnership frameworks, and introduce KPIs so performance and compliance become transparent.
• Lead cross-functional teams—Quality, R&D, and Ops—so decisions move quickly through the pipeline instead of stalling in silos.
• Map existing processes, spot efficiency gaps, and recommend practical improvements we can roll out inside our ERP and e-sourcing tools.

Deliverables accepted as complete
1. Category strategy document per segment (Packaging, Medical Device, Excipients) with spend analysis, market insights, sourcing roadmap, and risk mitigation plan.
2. 12-month savings pipeline clearly broken down by initiative, timing, and owner.
3. Supplier scorecard template and the first round of completed scorecards for our top 10 suppliers.
4. Process improvement report detailing at least three quick-win changes and long-term optimisation actions.

If you bring a proven track record in strategic sourcing, cross-functional leadership, and tough negotiation inside highly regulated supply chains, let’s get started.
