- Provide research reports with costings, availability, certifications, and shipping/logistics info.
- Attend trade shows or virtual exhibitions to explore new suppliers and market opportunities.
- Track trends in Indian manufacturing, export regulations, and commodity pricing.
Coordination & Reporting

- Provide regular procurement status updates, including cost-saving initiatives and sourcing opportunities.

- Self-starter with a problem-solving mindset.
- Engineering or industrial background (preferred but not essential).
