Descrizione dell'offerta
Newell Brands is a leading consumer products company with a portfolio of iconic brands such as Graco, Coleman, Oster, Rubbermaid and Sharpie, and 25,000 talented employees worldwide. Our culture is driven by core values of Integrity, Teamwork, Passion for Winning, Ownership & Leadership.
Primary Purpose Of The Role Secure the timely and cost‑effective supply of direct materials—raw materials, components and work‑in‑progress—required for Brescia production lines to run without interruption. The Senior Buyer owns day‑to‑day direct‑procurement execution and acts as the local procurement interface for production, while strategic sourcing and high‑value commitments are led by the EMEA Sourcing Manager, to whom the role reports.
This Implies
Translate MRP signals and purchase requisitions into accurate, consolidated purchase orders.
Conduct tactical negotiations with recurring suppliers and support strategic negotiations led by the Sourcing Manager.
Ensure on‑time delivery of purchased materials and manage the physical flow of raw and WIP materials to and from subcontractors.
Implement prompt actions whenever a material‑supply problem arises.
Sustain supplier performance and resolve non‑conformities at first level.
Spend Perimeter The role operates within the CGIT direct‑materials procurement scope, whose global spend—covering both China and Europe—amounts to approximately $7 million per year. The Senior Buyer, based in Italy, pilots the direct‑materials procurement for this scope.
Main Responsibilities
Analyse MRP exceptions and purchase requisitions daily; select and consolidate order quantities by SKU.
Issue, confirm and follow up purchase orders; review order confirmations, update delivery schedules and reschedule when the production plan changes.
Coordinate inbound and outbound flows of raw and WIP materials with subcontractors and verify subcontractor inventory.
Conduct tactical RFQs and price negotiations with recurring vendors; provide market intelligence to the Sourcing Manager to support strategic sourcing and supplier selection.
Coordinate food‑contact‑material compliance checks with external laboratory for the relevant SKUs.
Manage first‑level supplier non‑conformities and escalated major issues to the Sourcing Manager.
Support Accounts Payable in resolving three‑way‑match discrepancies.
Sign purchase orders within the limits of authority, in line with the Group’s delegation‑of‑authority policy; orders beyond those limits are approved by the appropriate level of management through an electronic approval workflow (e.g., DocuSign).
Scope Boundaries Strategic sourcing, high‑value supplier negotiations and supplier‑panel decisions are led by the EMEA Sourcing Manager, to whom this role reports. People management of the purchasing office is not part of this role. Indirect purchasing categories (consumables, canteen, utilities, transport contracts) are led by the Indirect Procurement function; on‑site order placement remains an operational task of the local buying team. Regulatory filings (customs documentation, CBAM declarations) and site facilities and services are handled by the relevant local administrative and compliance functions.
Education And Experience
Degree in economics, engineering or supply chain; or a technical high‑school diploma with equivalent procurement experience.
Minimum 5 years’ experience in an operational buyer role within an engineering/metalworking industry.
Native or fluent Italian; English at minimum B2 level.
Proficient in Microsoft Office (especially Excel); experience with SAP and Ariba is an asset.
Proactive attitude with strong problem‑solving and coordination skills, comfortable interfacing directly with production.
