Company Description
A sustainable, profitable, and enjoyable future for dairy farmers by combining robotics, engineering, and farming knowledge. That's what we believe in.
It all began in 1948 with the dream of two brothers in Maassluis. Since then, we have been an innovative leader in automated systems for dairy farmers worldwide. With 2,500 specialized professionals, we constantly work on new agricultural revolutions. We do this from our Campus in Maassluis (the building with the highest achievable sustainability performance in the Netherlands), as well as from other international locations. Together, our goal is to make dairy farming appealing for the next generation as well.

Job Description
As the largest robot manufacturer in Europe with the ambition to make the lives of dairy farmers more pleasant and sustainable, our team is constantly evolving.

In addition to your direct colleagues in procurement, you will collaborate closely with Proposition Management, Product Development, Operations, and other colleagues within the Integrated Supply Chain.
As a Buyer Electronics, you ensure that our robots leave the factory on time, in full, and on spec by selecting the best suppliers in multidisciplinary teams. Together with the supplier, you safeguard the agreements made and continuously work on improving the value stream. This role involves handling large quantities and series productions, making it an interesting job with a corresponding budget.
Key responsibilities:

Responsible for the performance management of suppliers, both nationally and internationally.
Responsible for selecting suppliers for technical projects (from a pool of fixed suppliers).
Negotiating prices, quality, and delivery times.
Monitoring agreements and framework contracts.
Guiding technical projects (NPI and continuous development) from drawing to realization.
Actively contributing to the further development of the department and participating in procurement-related (development) projects.

Qualifications
As a Buyer Electronics at Lely, you thrive in an environment where tasks change rapidly. In this dynamic setting, you proactively engage in all activities and don't wait for things to happen. You are commercially minded and have an eye for building relationships. Continuously striving for improvement comes naturally to you.
In addition, you bring the following qualifications:

Completed relevant education at a university of applied sciences or university level.
A minimum of 3-5 years of procurement experience in electronics and/or mechatronics.
Experience in the manufacturing industry and/or series production processes.
Preferably, you have completed NEVI or another procurement training.
Excellent negotiation skills.
Proficient in both Dutch and English, both spoken and written.
A driver's license is required due to supplier visits.

Additional Information
At Lely, you work in a challenging environment where you are given a lot of responsibility and freedom within one of the most innovative companies in the Netherlands. In this role, you can make an impact and be of real value to the organization while continuing your personal development.
Working as a Buyer Electronics at Lely means:

Excellent employment conditions, including 40 days off based on a full-time position and a salary of up to €5200 gross per month.
An open work environment with flexible working hours.
Freedom in organizing your own work.
Contributions toward various insurance premiums.
Access to the Lely Academy, offering a variety of training programs.
Being challenged in your role with a supportive environment for personal development and growth.
Participation in the #Fitat Lely program, including access to our own Lely gym with free workouts, (online) sports classes, masterclasses on remote working, and other activities focusing on Body, Mind, or Food.
A company restaurant with a rich and healthy menu, plus the opportunity to enjoy the best coffee at our famous espresso bar with our in-house barista.
And on the Lely Campus, you can savor the best cappuccinos made by our barista using fresh milk straight from the farm.

Recruitment & Selection Agency, Consultancy, and/or Secondment Agency?
We appreciate your interest, but we handle all our candidate searches directly. We understand that as intermediaries, you want to present our exciting positions to candidates and contribute to our ambitions, but this is not how we have structured our recruitment. This means that all unsolicited profiles submitted for Lely vacancies will be treated as direct applications.
