Company Description

Statistics show that women and underrepresented groups tend to apply to jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. Sobi encourages you to change that statistic and apply. Rarely do candidates meet 100% of the qualifications. We look forward to your application

At Sobi, the work we do every day redefines the standards of care and transform the lives of people living with rare diseases.

As a diverse team of entrepreneurial people, we are passionate about our growth journey towards becoming a global leader, making a difference for rare disease patients, moving quickly and always challenging the status quo.

We are committed to an inclusive, sustainable and flexible workplace that fosters growth and development.

Job Description

As the Global Strategic Sourcing Director, you will collaboratively drive Sobi’s global sourcing strategies to ensure efficient, high-quality, and cost-effective procurement across the organization. This is a critical role that requires strategic leadership, stakeholder collaboration, and the ability to adapt to a dynamic and competitive industry landscape.

The role reports to the Senior Director, Head of Strategic Sourcing & Direct Procurement and there are currently no direct reports to the role. As the team is nimble, trust and transparency are key words.

Key Responsibilities

- Design and implement comprehensive global sourcing strategy that aligns with Sobi’s business goals and supports key initiatives.
- Cultivate strong relationships with key global suppliers to strategically secure capacity and align on future growth together.
- Partner with internal teams, including supply chain, R&D, finance, quality and regulatory, to integrate sourcing strategies seamlessly into Sobi’s operations.
- Identify opportunities for cost efficiencies while adhering to high-quality standards and compliance requirements.
- Stay ahead of market trends, supplier capabilities, and economic changes to anticipate and manage challenges effectively.
- Drive initiatives that foster innovation in procurement practices and align with Sobi’s commitment to sustainable and ethical sourcing.

Qualifications

About you

We are looking for a strategic thinker who brings creativity and innovation to sourcing strategies and thrives in leading transformational change. You should be self-aware, leveraging both strengths and areas for growth to inspire trust and effective leadership. Excellence in managing complex negotiations, a focus on efficiency and optimized processes, and a willingness to be hands-on when needed are essential traits.

Key Qualifications

- Minimum 7 years of experience in a sourcing/procurement role, preferably within the pharmaceutical/biotech industry working with contract manufacturing services or other relevant experience.
- Proven track record in leading global procurement initiatives and managing complex supplier relationships.
- Strong analytical, negotiation, and leadership skills; exceptional project management and strategic thinking abilities.
- University degree in Pharmaceuticals, Engineering, Biochemistry or other relevant degree.

Here at Sobi we live by our core values: Care, Ambition, Urgency, Ownership and Partnership

Sobi Culture

At Sobi, we refuse to accept the status quo. This is because we have witnessed first-hand the challenges facing those affected by rare diseases and have used this knowledge to shape our business to find new ways of helping them.

As a specialized biopharmaceutical company, we are dedicated to rare diseases. And we see this focus as a strength. By effectively turning our research into ground-breaking treatments, we help make medicine more accessible and open up more possibilities for patients and more opportunities for those caring for them. This has been our approach since day one, but we know we can’t change the world of rare diseases on our own. Accomplishing this requires strong partnerships with patients, partners and stakeholders across the entire value chain. Together, we define how our business can create solutions that serve the needs of those affected by rare diseases while facilitating sustainable growth.
