The role
At Ormazabal, we work to transform the electrical grid into a future infrastructure: more reliable, resilient, and sustainable: we are experts in customized, high-tech electrical solutions.
We design and manufacture solutions oriented towards digitalizing the electrical grid to integrate greater renewable energy generation, enable more sustainable mobility, and guarantee the electricity supply to buildings and infrastructures with critical energy needs.
At Ormazabal, we develop the technology necessary to make this world a more electric place. That is why we are passionate about what we do. Because we know that we contribute to the construction of a more efficient and sustainable energy model. A better future for the generations to come.
At Ormazabal, you will find a space to design your future and that of the rest of the world.
What you'll do
Your work will be a key role in ensuring that Ormazabal's strategic suppliers worldwide are qualified in quality, sustainability, and financial solvency. You will do this through audits and by managing the qualification process in SAP Ariba. Additionally, you will help to continuously improve our supplier qualification and risk management system:
Perform qualification audits on suppliers in Spain and other countries, as an auditor or by accompanying the purchasing and quality teams from our plants. You will verify on-site their quality management, industrial capacity, and sustainability performance: environment, human and labor rights, and health and safety.
Manage the qualification process on the SAP Ariba platform: launch questionnaires, review and approve each supplier's documentation (ISO certificates, financial information, organizational chart...) and follow up on responses and renewals.
Maintain, together with the plants, the Ormazabal supplier panel up to date: the group's list of approved suppliers, classified according to their criticality to the supply chain.
Propose and drive improvements in the supplier qualification and risk management system, such as:
Implement the new action plan process for high-risk suppliers: detect those who may compromise supply continuity (due to their financial situation, their dependence on Ormazabal, or the lack of alternatives), and agree upon and follow up with each plant on the measures to reduce that risk.
Extend qualification to more suppliers.
Streamline renewals and supplier responses on the platform.
Automate monitoring and reporting.
Develop the indicators and dashboards for the qualification plan, and provide supplier sustainability qualification data to the group's sustainability report.
Provide support and training on the qualification process to the purchasing and quality teams of the plants and business units of Ormazabal, in Spain and in the rest of the world.
