Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your sourcing and supplier management expertise in a cutting-edge field. You'll work alongside dynamic and collaborative teammates.

You'll play a crucial role in supplier scouting and development for India and the APAC region, driving commodity strategy implementation, and ensuring supplier QCDT (Quality, Cost, Delivery, Technology) performance. Day-to-day, you'll work closely with teams across the business (such as Sourcing, Engineering, and Supply Chain), manage supplier relationships, and lead negotiation and bundling activities across sites and businesses.

You'll specifically take care of building and executing sourcing strategies, as well as driving cost-saving initiatives, but also ensure supplier compliance and performance management.

We'll look to you for :

  • Scouting and developing suppliers in India and the APAC region
  • Driving roadmap implementation with the Global Commodity Team
  • Leading supplier QCDT performance reviews
  • Managing CONQ (Cost of Non-Quality) and claims for assigned suppliers
  • Representing commodities in projects, tenders, and aftermarket activities
  • Negotiating contracts and managing supplier relationships

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 :

  • Degree in BE or MBA (specialization in Purchasing & Supply Chain is an added advantage)
  • 6–10 years of experience in the industry, with at least 5 years in Purchasing or Supply Chain functions
  • Strong understanding of technical, quality, and commercial topics
  • Experience in supplier relationship management and negotiation
  • Familiarity with commodity strategies and cost-saving initiatives
  • Excellent communication skills – fluent in English (oral / written)
  • Strong interpersonal skills, including leadership, problem-solving, and the ability to influence
  • Strategic vision and a results-oriented mindset
  • 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. You'll also :

  • Enjoy stability, challenges, and a long-term career free from boring daily routines
  • Work with new security standards for rail signalling
  • Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful colleagues
  • Contribute to innovative projects
  • Utilise our inclusive and flexible working environment
  • Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries
  • Benefit from our investment in your development, through award-winning learning
  • Progress towards leadership roles or specialized expertise in sourcing and supply chain management
  • Benefit from a fair and dynamic reward package that recognises your performance and potential, plus comprehensive and competitive social coverage (life, medical, pension)
  • 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!

    Important to note

    As a global business, we're an equal-opportunity employer that celebrates diversity across the 63 countries we operate in. We're committed to creating an inclusive workplace for everyone.
