Who we’re looking for

At Rolls-Royce we embrace agility, are bold, pursue collaboration and seek simplicity in everything we do. These principles form our values and behaviours and are an essential component of our assessment process and are fundamental qualities that we seek for all roles.

To be successful in this role you will need to:

• possess a Master’s or Bachelor’s Degree in a related field, coupled with extensive experience in Procurement, Supply Chain, Commercial Contracting, or Manufacturing,
• show a consistent ability to deliver results in various conditions, highlighting adaptability and perseverance,
• have a background in high-level strategic planning and industry analysis, with a track record of managing product costs effectively,
• commit to travel up to 50% of the time, both domestically and internationally,
• possess fluency in English, with proficiency in German considered a significant asset.

We are an equal opportunities employer. We’re committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives. And the more perspectives we have, the more successful we’ll be.
