• Build and manage strong supplier relationships, including pricing, contracts, and performance reviews
• Execute the sourcing strategy alongside the Category Buyer
• Analyze data to make smart, commercially sound decisions
• Ensure every sourcing choice aligns with our sustainability and quality standards
• Collaborate with internal teams such as Innovation, Supply Chain, Quality, Regulatory, and Impact
• Prepare and present business cases using the AQSCIS framework
• Secure materials, timelines, and suppliers for new product launches
• Drive cost savings and process improvements
• Guarantee transparent, accurate product data and flawless administration

In short, you’ll be the link between idea and reality, ensuring our gifting, merchandise, and House of Rituals products are produced and delivered with care and excellence.
