Buyer

Are you an organized and proactive professional with an interest in procurement and supply chain operations? We are looking for a Buyer to join our team and play a key role in ensuring the availability of goods and services that keep our operations running smoothly.

In this role, you will work closely with Suppliers, Sourcing Managers, Finance and Operations, acting as a key link between stakeholders to ensure efficient and reliable procurement processes.
This position is also an excellent opportunity for a recent engineering graduate looking to start their career in procurement — especially if you have an interest in industrial or mechanical environments.

As a Buyer, you will:

• Ensure availability of goods and services within your scope
• Manage pricing, purchase requisitions, orders, and confirmations
• Maintain and update procurement master data
• Conduct RFQs (Requests for Quotation) and price checks
• Monitor deliveries and support on-time performance
• Handle invoice and claim resolution with Finance and Operations
• Support stakeholders and collaborate with Sourcing Managers
• Drive the automation of routine tasks by developing e-procurement tools and applying Lean principles to enhance P2P processes

What We Expect From You

• Bachelor’s degree in business, logistics, engineering, or a related field
• Experience in purchasing, logistics, or supply chain tasks is an advantage (experience in the steel industry is a plus)
• Basic understanding of procurement and sourcing processes
• Experience with ERP systems (e.g., SAP)
• Fluency in English; Finnish language skills are considered an asset
• It is considered an advantage if you have mechanical knowledge — for example, experience working in a machine shop or manufacturing environment
• You can also be a soon-to-graduate engineer eager to grow into a procurement role

What Success Looks Like in this Role

• High on-time delivery performance — materials arrive on time, with the right quality and at the best possible total cost
• Strong order confirmation ratios
• Efficient invoice processing
• Reduced backlog levels
• High “first-time-right” execution

Why Join Us?
You will be part of a collaborative and supportive environment where your work has a direct impact on production continuity and business success. This role offers excellent opportunities to develop your expertise in procurement, supply chain, and industrial operations. We offer a stable role in an international industrial company with a strong market position, a flexible hybrid working model (50% office / 50% remote), and a competitive compensation and benefits package.

You will be based in Tornio and report to Head of Spares and Services Finland.
