We are now seeking an experienced, commercially minded supply chain/contract manager to strengthen our team.
Key to the role is facilitating the smooth running of commercial and operational relationships between Amdipharm and its Third Party Manufacturing partners (TPM's) allowing for quality, commercial, financial and operational targets to be met.
To achieve this, you will need to:
Keep detailed records of all matters relating to each supplier; including day to day operational control, contract negotiation or renegotiation, annual pricing reviews, visit plans, issues management, escalation procedures, key milestones. Participate in, and influence the development, of a medium and long-term TPM strategy. Ensure that productive relationships are developed with vendors, TPM's and distributors. Initiate, review and update Supply Contracts and Service Level Agreements. Work with the Supply Chain Planners to ensure that supplier performance is monitored. Act as the first point of contact for TPM's and internal colleagues when issues arise. Lead and participate in continuous improvement programmes and Corporate Quality programmes. Who we're looking for:
Demonstrable and extensive experience in Purchasing and Supply Chain Management, ideally within the pharmaceutical industry. Undertaken contract negotiations and drafted SLA's. Experience of working in a highly regulated environment. Strong communicative and management skills. Excellent analytical skills. Good interpersonal flexibility and be able to maintain strong relationships with senior management. Experience of advanced spreadsheet analysis tools, ERP systems (ideally QAD) and having worked internationally, would be advantageous. A first degree and ideally a post-graduate business qualification
Amdipharm specialises in marketing internationally branded pharmaceutical products to primary and secondary care prescribers.
The Company was founded in 2002 with the aim of making essential prescription medicines available, which may no longer be a priority for research based pharmaceutical companies. We call these legacy products and we acquire them from companies who wish to divest them.
The key objective of any Amdipharm acquisition is to ensure a seamless transition in the supply of medicines from the manufacturer to the patient. Post acquisition, the only difference a patient may notice is the change of packaging design to the Amdipharm branded livery.
Amdipharm is focused on identifying and ensuring that medicines in disease areas not currently under the spotlight of the multinational pharmaceutical industry remain available for patients who depend on them. Amdipharm aims to address needs in niche market areas.
Through eighteen significant acquisitions, Amdipharm offers more than 50 products which sell in over 80 countries across the world and has an annualised turnover in excess of 100m.
Where specific UK qualifications are required we will take into account overseas equivalents. All third party applications will be forwarded to Michael Page.
