Procurement Executive

This is a hands-on procurement role at our Singapore entity, positioned at executive to senior executive level (individual contributor, non-managerial). The role covers three core areas:
Sourcing, Procurement Master Data, and Purchase Operations. It complements our Guangzhou procurement team and is closer to the local and regional supply market and cross-border import process.

We manage several hundred standardised SKUs under an established procurement process and supplier network. What we now need is to systemise our procurement data — cost prices, suppliers, MOQ and lead times — and to keep improving cost and supply terms. This is not a purely transactional role: we need someone who maintains data accuracy and delivery reliability while proactively identifying better sourcing options.

You will work with local suppliers and logistics partners, our Guangzhou operations team and regional suppliers, covering the full chain from sourcing and negotiation to purchase orders, cross-border import and receipt reconciliation.

Sourcing & Negotiation: Identify, assess and develop suppliers; obtain the best pricing and commercial terms through RFQ, price comparison and negotiation; continuously optimise the supplier matrix (primary and backup).

Procurement Master Data: Maintain SKU-level master data — cost prices, supplier information, MOQ, lead times and payment terms — ensuring accuracy, timeliness and consistency; produce regular procurement reports (order volume, fulfilment rate, purchase cost, savings) to support management decisions.

Purchase Operations: Raise and track purchase orders based on demand from operations and business teams; confirm delivery; handle delivery delays, quantity discrepancies, quality and invoicing issues to ensure no stock-out of critical SKUs.

Cross-border Import & Logistics: Coordinate with freight forwarders and logistics providers on export clearance, import clearance, duties and GST documentation and compliance; support logistics option comparison for efficient, compliant inbound receipt.

Cost Optimisation: Build and maintain an SKU-level price database; monitor price gaps between procurement bases and market movements; propose cost reduction and alternative sourcing plans and track their delivery.

Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with operations, warehouse and finance on demand response and delivery alignment; coordinate with the Guangzhou procurement team and regional suppliers.

Others: Other duties assigned by the Company and Management.
