About this role
Role Overview
Contact and align ~300 producing suppliers across Europe on a new Positive Release process
Communicate clearly what is required: Certificates of Analysis (CoA) must accompany every future delivery
Persuade, follow up, and hold suppliers accountable – with professionalism and persistence
Document the rollout systematically and hand it over to the internal QA team in structured form
Work directly with Supply Chain and Quality leadership throughout the engagement
Requirements
Experience in supplier management, procurement, or vendor management – ideally in food, FMCG, or a related supply-chain-intensive industry
Strong communicator and negotiator – you know how to bring suppliers along, not just demand compliance
Business-fluent English (you'll work with European suppliers across multiple countries)
Available immediately and able to commit to a 3-month full-time engagement
Comfortable with a hands-on, execution-focused role without a lot of internal structure around you
German language skills
Experience rolling out compliance processes or onboarding programs at the supplier level
Comfortable with lightweight digital tools (Notion, Google Sheets, or similar)
Benefits
A clearly scoped mandate with tangible impact – you'll leave behind a working process
Direct access to senior Supply Chain leadership
A lean, fast-moving environment that values straight talk and execution over politics
Fully remote setup, flexible within DACH business hours
