WHAT'S THE ROLE?
WHO IS HILTI?
Hilti is where innovation is improving productivity, safety and sustainability in the global construction industry, and beyond. Where strong customer relationships are creating solutions that build a better future. Where there is pride and a sense of belonging across our 120 locations, carrying right into our lives and homes. Where people are exploring possibilities, leveraging their potential, owning their personal development and growing lasting careers.
Global IT within Hilti is a truly global team with main hubs in Buchs (Switzerland), Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) and Plano/Tulsa (USA). All locations have highly competent teams who work very closely together. Hilti`s Global IT team is known for their focus on sustainable value creation by translating latest IT innovations into value creating solutions & services.
WHAT DOES THE ROLE INVOLVE?
With an entrepreneurial & strategic mindset, you will challenge the status quo, taking calculated risks to drive and develop innovation from within. You will proactively monitor the external environment and translate relevant trends into the organization, to ensure agility and value creation. To be successful, internal stakeholder management is key and a proactive, convincing hands-on strategic mindset is required.
As a Strategic Category Manager, you are responsible for the development and implementation of strategic initiatives within an assigned portfolio of indirect sourcing categories (mainly IT software). Specific responsibilities include development of category strategies, optimizing spend opportunities, facilitating and leading sourcing projects, supplier negotiation, tactical purchasing, and establishing & maintenance of supplier relationships. You drive the preparation and the execution together with our global IT & business project teams.
Show us what you’re made of and we’ll offer you opportunities to move around the business – to work abroad, experience different job functions and tackle different markets. It’s a great way to find the right match for your ambitions and achieve the exciting career you’re after.
We have a very thorough people review process, unlike any we know of in any other business. We can pair talent with opportunities - developing our people in their current roles or challenging them to work in new ways or in new places. It’s how we find the right fit, further our teams personally and professionally, get the best value for each employee and increase the job satisfaction. Additionally, we offer you a wide range of benefits.
WHAT YOU NEED IS:
WHY SHOULD YOU APPLY?
You want to be challenged to use and grow all the skillsets you have. You want to be part of teams that seek not to merely meet targets, but to outperform. Conceptual brain work interests you as much as getting down and detailed in documents, spreadsheets, and slide decks. You enjoy analytical and strategic thinking as well as hands-on project management, tough discussions and intense negotiations. You relish convincing others, leveraging your knowledge, and communicating precisely to take your internal stakeholders along the journey with you. We have a diverse team of people with various nationalities, backgrounds, and experiences. Additionally, at Hilti we emphasize people development and offer a range of trainings, mentorships, and individual development plans.
