What you’ll do
Design and execute forward-looking procurement strategies aligned to M-KOPA’s goals.
Build, negotiate, and manage relationships with Tier 1 and Tier 2 vendors.
Deliver cost savings, performance improvements, and process innovation.
Partner with stakeholders across the business to ensure procurement delivers measurable value.
Support finance by ensuring accurate processing and reporting of procurement transactions.
What you’ll bring
A degree (or equivalent) in Business Administration, Supply Chain, Procurement, Finance, or related field.
2+ years’ experience in procurement, finance, or data-driven environments.

Communication skills that inspire trust and collaboration.
Why this role matters
