Megasol Energie AG is one of the leading Swiss manufacturers of innovative solar modules and building-integrated photovoltaic solutions. At our headquarters in Deitingen, we bring development, production, sales, and logistics together under one roof.
For this central interface function, we are looking for a person who does not consider purchasing, AVOR, and PPS separately, but who connects them into a solid global process. This position is aimed at people who take responsibility, achieve measurable improvements, and anchor solutions consistently in daily operations.
Your responsibilities #
• Operational procurement of raw materials, components, commercial goods, and services, including comparison of offers, allocation, and order management
• Conducting demanding negotiations on prices, conditions, and contracts with demonstrable economic results
• Selection, evaluation, and continuous development of high-performance suppliers as well as implementation of reliable alternative sources
• Rigorous monitoring of orders, delivery times, and material availability, as well as autonomous management of discrepancies, quality defects, and claims
• Planning of production, capacity, and utilization, as well as steering and prioritization of the manufacturing program
• Ensuring the availability of materials and resources while maintaining economical stocks and as low capital commitment as possible
• Development and maintenance of reliable work plans, master data, and relevant documents for production
• Active responsibility in the introduction and continuous development of the new ERP/PPS system in your area of competence
• Digitization and optimization of procurement, planning, and material flow processes - including monitoring implementation, compliance, and the sustainable anchoring of improvements
• Close and committed collaboration with production, sales, technical, quality, logistics, and finance
Success criteria #
• Materials and production resources are available at the necessary time - without unnecessarily high stocks
• Delivery and production discrepancies are detected early, made transparent, and resolved consistently
• Negotiations result in measurably improved prices, conditions, availability, or risk positions
• ERP data, work plans, and processes are correct, practical, and sustainably respected
Your profile and skills #
• Basic technical or commercial training, ideally supplemented by continuing education in purchasing, supply chain, production planning, or process management
• Several years of successful experience in purchasing, AVOR, and PPS or production planning in an industrial environment
• Demonstrable success in negotiation, supplier development, material availability, or production steering
• Very good knowledge of ERP/PPS systems; experience in the introduction of an ERP or complete digitization of processes is a clear advantage
• Very good knowledge of German and good knowledge of English
• Analytical strength, assertiveness, and a pronounced sense of cost, quality, and deadlines
• High degree of autonomy: you identify needs for action, make informed decisions, and lead topics to completion reliably
What awaits you #
Impact & development ##
• A key role with direct influence on costs, delivery capacity, and production performance
• Great leeway, short decision paths, as well as attractive opportunities for continuing education and development
• Performance-based remuneration and the possibility to contribute sustainably to the design of central systems and processes
Does this position suit you? #
If you only want to process individual orders or manage production plans, this position is not for you. If you want to operationally link purchasing, AVOR, and PPS, autonomously resolve critical situations, and improve processes in a measurable way, we want to meet you.
In your application, show us using concrete examples what economic improvement you achieved in a previous function, how you resolved a critical situation related to materials or production, and which process you successfully digitized or improved sustainably.
