Manage key supplier relationships, including performance reviews and continuous improvement initiatives.
Partner with Operations, Engineering, Finance, and Planning teams to drive value across the supply chain.
Oversee ordering strategies considering MOQ, lead times, forecasts, usage, and wastage data.
Support sustainability initiatives, including progress toward Marley Spoon’s plastic-free-by-2030 goal.
Resolve supply, quality, and invoice issues to ensure uninterrupted operations.
What you’ll bring
4–6 years’ experience in procurement or strategic sourcing, ideally in packaging or a related category.
