Global Procurement Graduate: start changing your career!

jobbeskrivelse:

Looking for a life-changing career experience? The 2-year Global Procurement Graduate Programme will give you the opportunity to understand many parts of our core business in addition to comprehensive knowledge of our procurement value chain and finance functions. The programme has been designed to develop the next generation of procurement leaders who will drive business performance and shareholder return while making a difference to the millions of people who rely on our products.

 

About the Global Procurement graduate programme
In Novo Nordisk global procurement is responsible for sourcing and purchasing billions worth of services and materials across the business. Our responsibilities include, but are not limited to, establishing and anchoring supplier strategies, negotiating contracts, identifying sourcing needs, driving the sourcing and procurement process, and managing stakeholder and supplier relationships. In addition, global procurement supports the organisation by prioritising key business activities with the aim of achieving the highest possible total supply chain value, while taking quality, risks, savings, environmental and social aspects into consideration.

 

During the programme you will work with senior managers and build an international network of world-class colleagues, establishing yourself as one of tomorrow’s key people in Global Procurement at Novo Nordisk.

 

We’ve designed the Global Procurement graduate programme so that, following its successful completion, you will be equipped with the necessary skills and experience to become an integral part of our company – typically with a permanent position in Denmark or elsewhere in our global organisation.

 

The position

During the 2-year programme you will undertake 4 rotations of 6-months. Usually three of the rotations will take place in our corporate headquarters in Denmark and one rotation will be in one of our global affiliates or production sites. Examples of recent international rotations include Zurich (CH), Clayton (USA), or Princeton (USA).

 

The rotations are shaped to suit your development needs, while meeting our business requirements and to ensure you build the required competences needed to become one of “tomorrow’s key people” in Novo Nordisk. Below is an example of how rotations could be shaped for the global procurement programme anchored in DK:

 

 

• Rotation 1 – Strategic Sourcing
  Placed in Strategic Sourcing in our headquarters in Denmark, you will participate in a larger sourcing project as well as developing and executing category strategies.
   
• Rotation 2 – Finance or Supply Chain
  Working in a Finance function in Denmark, you will focus on core financial planning and reporting processes. This will provide you with the tools to quantify procurement savings and strengthen your understanding of how your work impacts budgets.
   
• Rotation 3 – International Experience
  During this placement outside of Denmark, you will work within our local sourcing units in one of our sales regions or production sites to manage local procurement activities and gain true international experience in a global organisation.
   
• Rotation 4 – Global Engineering Sourcing
  For your last rotation, in Global Engineering Sourcing in Denmark, you will focus on sourcing of production equipment, buildings and facilities.
