The Senior Sourcing Associate owns the end-to-end supplier sourcing process — from product kickoff through supplier recommendation to supplier onboarding. This is not a transactional role focused on collecting quotations; we're looking for someone who thinks commercially, makes sound sourcing decisions, negotiates effectively, and builds long-term supplier partnerships.
Apply nowAs Senior Sourcing Associate, reporting to our Head of Sourcing, Procurement and Logistics, you will own sourcing projects end-to-end: analyzing product requirements, identifying and developing manufacturers across multiple regions, negotiating commercial terms, and onboarding suppliers that support long-term product launches.
Success in this role is measured by consistently identifying the best overall supplier by balancing cost, quality, manufacturing capability, leadtime, scalability, risk, and long-term partnership potential — not simply the lowest price.
You'll operate with a high level of ownership and independent judgement, bringing recommendations and solutions rather than just problems, with final commercial approval remaining with the Head of Sourcing, Procurement & Logistics and/or senior management where required.
Performance will be measured based on:
A successful Senior Sourcing Associate takes ownership of sourcing projects from start to finish, consistently brings recommendations and solutions — not just problems — thinks commercially rather than transactionally, executes with speed and urgency, and builds strong supplier relationships.
To join our team, you bring along:
Minimum 5 years of international sourcing, supplier development, or strategic procurement experience, with a proven track record of identifying, vetting, negotiating, and onboarding suppliers for commercially successful product launches.
Experience sourcing from multiple manufacturing regions — China plus at least one of Vietnam, Turkey, Europe, or Southeast Asia — is essential.
Experience working directly with manufacturers, conducting supplier evaluations and factory audits, sourcing categories such as home improvement, DIY, furniture, household goods, outdoor living, automotive accessories, or similar.
Strong commercial negotiation skills, analytical thinking, excellent written and spoken English, and the ability to manage multiple sourcing projects simultaneously.
Experience working with Amazon sellers, e-commerce companies, retailers, importers, or multinational sourcing organizations is highly desirable.
A track record of diversifying supplier bases outside China, leading supplier meetings and negotiations independently, mentoring junior sourcing professionals, and using AI tools to improve sourcing efficiency.
Show us how you'd identify, evaluate, and negotiate with the best overall supplier — not just the cheapest — and how you'd build long-term partnerships that scale with our product launches.
