This role involves maintaining supplier relationships, ensuring compliance with trade regulations, and optimizing inventory in a scarcity-driven market.

- Achieving gross profit targets based on purchasing budgets
- Managing 800+ product lines, expanding & optimizing portfolio
What We Are Looking For Experience & Skills:
- HBO / MBO+ education level (business, logistics, or related)
- 5+ years experience in procurement / wholesale trading
- Experience in B2B purchasing, supplier negotiations & relationship management
- Strong organizational skills – structured & process-oriented approach
- Commercial mindset but no cold calling (relationship-driven sales)
- Analytical skills – comfortable with KPI-driven procurement
- ERP & Excel proficiency – experience with mass uploads & digital workflows
Personality & Mindset:
- Professional with experience in procurement
- Calm, semi-introverted, but strong in relationship building
- Comfortable with structured processes and data-driven decision-making
- Ability to adapt to a scarcity market (not overstocking inventory)
- No medical background required, but must understand industry context
- Dutch preferred, but open to international profiles (no visa sponsorship)
What We Offer Initial contract of 7 months, 1 month-probation then 1 year contract
