Why This Role Exists

As a group of companies, we depend on getting the right raw materials, at the right price, without compromising on quality. Good procurement isn't just about negotiating the lowest price - it's about protecting quality standards while doing it, so the group gets consistent, reliable supply it can build every product on.

• Obtain and evaluate supplier quotations and lead negotiations on price, payment terms, MOQ and delivery - balancing cost savings with strict quality standards.
• Track market prices, seasonal trends, crop cycles and supply risk and flag significant shifts to Management.
• Coordinate with Quality Control to ensure materials meet required specifications, and drive resolution on rejected or non-conforming materials.
• Own purchase orders end-to-end from supplier confirmation through final delivery - including coordination with Logistics.
• Drive cost optimization and process improvement, without compromising quality or supply reliability.
• Coordinate with Sales/BD, Quality, Logistics, Accounts and Management across group companies to align procurement with business needs.
• Maintain accurate procurement records and prepare reports on pricing, deliveries, quality issues and cost savings.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Commerce, Supply Chain Management or a related field.
• 3–6 years of experience in Procurement, Purchase, Sourcing, Supply Chain or Vendor Management.
• Experience in FMCG, food products, agricultural commodities, spices or dehydrated vegetables highly preferred.
• Strong negotiation and vendor management skills with an eye for quality, not just price.
• Good working knowledge of MS Excel/Google Sheets, ERP or procurement software exposure is a plus.
• Fluent in English, Tamil and Hindi, with strong stakeholder-management ability.
• Willing to travel to supplier markets and sourcing locations and across group company sites if needed.
