That’s why we support you to pursue a career that’s unique to you. Because success is personal.


What you’ll be doing

You'll lead the procurement activities, ensuring contracts are delivered on time and meet quality standards. You will manage a team of procurement engineers, guiding them to define roles, identify key resources, and communicate responsibilities clearly. A key part of your role will be delivering the LTSA procurement schedule, ensuring contracts are in place for the required timelines and coordinating with technical teams to define contract scope.

You’ll also be responsible for driving LTSA procurement activities in alignment with licensing, safety, quality, time, and cost requirements, ensuring all technical and business needs are met.
