manner. You will also ensure that we continuously update the information about our articles and
suppliers in SAP to minimize errors and speed up our work. You will regularly extract data from SAP
and process it in Excel to create tables, diagrams and similar.

You need to create strong relationships with both internal stakeholders and external suppliers,
relationships that are based on trust and mutual respect.

handle purchasing in an efficient and correct manner.
