Could you be the full-time Senior Buyer (f/m/d) in Vienna we’re looking for?
Your Future Role
From Vienna to the world: our Viennese site is a global competence center for trams and light rail vehicles. 800 colleagues develop and manufacture the Flexity™ tram for worldwide customers from Austria to Australia. Our product line Rolling Stock & Components offers products from the broadest portfolio in the rail industry. Our innovation focus is on green and smart solutions, including emission-free propulsion systems such as batteries and hydrogen. You’ll report to Site Procurement Manager and work alongside a dedicated and enthusiastic team.
We’ll look for you to:
  • Lead purchasing activities for a designated family of products or suppliers, driving competitive advantage for the local business unit
  • Identify and implement cost reduction initiatives while providing innovative supply solutions for complex sourcing challenges
  • Research and evaluate potential new suppliers to enhance local sourcing capabilities beyond existing global agreements
  • Manage supplier relationships in alignment with Procurement policies, ensuring competitiveness and optimal delivery performance
  • Establish and monitor key supplier performance through dedicated development processes and continual improvement initiatives
  • Support the Procurement Manager by resolving operational issues and overseeing complex negotiations related to contractual terms
All About You
We value passion and attitude over experience. That’s why we don’t expect you to have every single skill. Instead, we’ve listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:
  • Relevant experience in commodity sourcing and supplier management within an engineering context
  • Fluency in both English and German
  • Proficiency in negotiation, relationship management, and financial acumen
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities independently while adhering to deadlines
  • Capacity to challenge the status quo, assertiveness, and diplomacy are essential traits for success in this role
Things You’ll Enjoy
Join us on a life-long transformative journey – the rail industry is here to stay, so you can grow and develop new skills and experiences throughout your career. The minimum salary for this position is € 45.000 EUR gross annually for full-time employment according to the collective bargaining agreement. Overpayment depends on relevant work experience and qualifications. You’ll also:
  • Experience a dynamic work environment with a permanent position at a leading company for green mobility
  • Enjoy a competitive remuneration package, 25 days of vacation, and benefits such as company pension plans and discounted tickets for public transport
  • Optimise work-life balance with flexible working hours and hybrid working models as well as bridging days, parental part-time and “Papamonat”
  • Alstom site with company canteen and meal allowance as well as good transport connections and free parking facilities
  • Explore growth opportunities and steer your career across functions and countries
  • Benefit from excellent training opportunities through our award-winning Alstom University and participate in the company's innovation culture through idea management programmes
  • Thrive in a modern and collaborative workplace featuring mentor and buddy programs, diversity & inclusion initiatives, CSR activities, and engaging employee events
  • Enjoy a comprehensive corporate health management with various initiatives such as company physician and psychologist and other health measures
  • Other attractive offers such as employee discounts, company bike leasing & share purchase programms
You don’t need to be a train enthusiast to thrive with us. We guarantee that when you step onto one of our trains with your friends or family, you’ll be proud. If you’re up for the challenge, we’d love to hear from you!
