Stillingstittel:
Are you keen to use best practices and new technology for improvements?

Stillingsbeskrivelse:

The Primary Metal (PM) business area has a total annual production capacity of more than 2 million tons of primary aluminium, and around 5 000 employees in 16 countries. We produce primary aluminium, recycle, and supply our customers with casthouse products. Procurement, part of Strategic Sourcing within Primary Metal, is responsible for sourcing goods and services for the aluminum smelters.

We are now hiring a Category Manager for Services, serving aluminium smelters in Norway and central staffs in PM. The services covered are typically in fields such as maintenance & repair, CAPEX projects and consulting. You will also be responsible for procuring personal protective equipment and clothing (PPE/PPC).

This is a newly established category, with a strong mandate to form our future performance within services procurement. You will provide support and initiate process and tool improvements across business units and locations.

If you are keen to use best practices and new technology in a category role combining strategy and operational support towards more efficient service procurement and follow-up, this is an excellent opportunity!

Area of Responsibility

In addition to service category management, you will be responsible for coordinating HSE initiatives relating to contractors and hired equipment across units.

Your tasks will include to:

• Establish category team, a category strategy and commercial activities
• Run tender processes, negotiate, establish, and manage contracts
• Support local procurement in benchmarking, analysis and procurement best practice
• Drive strategic supplier development and follow up on supplier performance
• Support in developing service applications, facilitate the implementation of new applications, and standardize processes
• Take an active role in establishing standards for PPE/ PPC across units
• Ensure common standards and practice for contractor safety and for hired equipment
• Head and drive performance activities for the category team and across the procurement organization

Qualifications

• University degree, preferably in engineering/business. Relevant experience may compensate for lack of formal education
• Minimum 5 years' relevant experience within supply-chain, procurement, project management, production or construction
• Proven ability to identify and deliver on improvement initiatives
• Understanding of value chains, combined with interest for operations and HSE
• Interest in technology-driven process and system development
• Excellent command of SAP is preferred
• Fluent in English and Norwegian, verbal and written

As a person, you are self-going, communicate well and have strong ownership and commitment. You work with a structured and analytical approach and thrive when you can apply a commercial mindset to complex tasks. If you also combine customer orientation with ability to lead and work within an operational environment, we'd very much like to consider your application.

Additional Information

As services and HSE are integrated in operations, projects and support, you will have multiple interfaces in this role. This also means business travels are expected, mainly in Norway, estimated at 40-60 days per year.

The position can be located at Hydro sites in Høyanger, Karmøy, Oslo, Sunndal, or Årdal.

Health, safety, security, and environment (HSE) are an integrated part of Hydro's daily activities. Our responsibility is to protect the health and safety of our employees and to contribute to the sustainable development of the communities in which we operate. We thus look for employees who will contribute positively to this by their commitment to HSE, their attitude and related actions.

Only applications received through our online system will be considered, not via e-mail. Please enclose all relevant transcripts with your application (academic records/diplomas, certificates etc.).

As part of our recruitment process, we use Semac for background checks.
