Hi, my name is Jenny Dahl and I am Head of Sourcing & Supplier Management. I believe in training the right person for the right things. This means I will make sure you get a good onboarding, and I will stick around as long as you need, to get into the role well.”

What does a Contract Manager do at Dustin

As our new Contract Manager, you will be given the training and autonomy to manage the contracting phase of our procurement process as part of the overall Supplier Management process to implement the best possible supplier contract for the business. You will get the chance to work with many areas of the organisation and many types of procurement contracts from indirect to direct procurement.

Supplier management at Dustin is a set of pre-defined activities used to qualify, contract, segment, monitor, and manage suppliers, both direct and indirect. One key area in this process is contracting our suppliers. Therefore, your tasks will include, but are not limited to:

- Systematically manage contract creation, execution, and analysis to maximize financial and operational performance and minimize risk
- Craft, evaluate, negotiate, and execute a variety of different contracts covering one or more supplier categories
- Create and maintain relationships with suppliers and serve as the singular point of contact for matters concerning contracts
- Monitor contracts and propose close-out, extension, or renewal according to what’s best for the company
- Solve any contract-related problems that may arise with other parties and internally
- Give relevant guidance to the business in areas relating to the above with Dustin's best interest in mind


You are given continuous opportunities for development and will have a knowledgeable team around you. They all strive for a friendly and supportive culture and enjoy sharing their knowledge, reaching common goals, and connecting over a Fika.
