Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
You will own the procurement category end-to-end, including sourcing, qualifying suppliers, and negotiating key agreements to drive margin. You will also model trade-offs and manage contracts to ensure cost-efficiency and supply chain reliability.
Candidates must have at least four years of experience in procurement, strategic sourcing, or category management within manufacturing or FMCG. You must be fluent in English and possess the legal right to work in the Netherlands.
Aquablu builds smart hydration systems. Marnix and Marc started in 2018 with one idea: healthy shouldn't mean boring, and tasty shouldn't mean sugar. Today our water is tapped in 16 countries, in offices like Heineken, Adyen, and Marriott Hotels.
Deloitte Fast50 ranked us the #2 fastest growing tech company in the Netherlands in 2025. Sifted250 put us at #30 in Europe. AI is how we build here, not a layer we added later. And the number that shapes what we build: 1 billion plastic bottles saved by 2030.
Cost hides. It sits in a freight lane nobody renegotiated, a part with a single supplier, a payment term set three years ago when we were a tenth of the size. Your job is to find it and do something about it.
You'll own the category end to end. You source and qualify suppliers before we need them, run the negotiations on the parts that matter, put the agreements in place, and build credible alternatives so we're never negotiating from a single-supplier position. You'll also help source the people behind our next product line, working closely with Finance, Quality, and Engineering.
You won't be processing POs. You'll own the category and turn it into margin, with the autonomy to shape the systems you work in from your first month.
Find the cost. Parts, freight, duty, warehousing, waste, lead times. Map where the money and the risk sit, then decide what to attack first.
Build the pipeline. Find suppliers, approach them, audit them, qualify them. Before we need them.
Negotiate. Run the negotiations on key inputs and land reductions that show up in margin.
Own the contracts. Set the supplier agreements, then make sure the terms we agreed are the terms we get.
Build the fallback. Qualify alternate sources on critical parts so there's always a real option on the table, and a BATNA worth naming.
Source for what's next. Drive the commercial funnel on new product development: RFQs, audits, qualification, negotiation.
Model the trade-offs. Fully-landed cost, TCO, and breakeven models, so every negotiation runs on real numbers. Renegotiate payment terms to free up cash.
Four years or more in procurement, buying, strategic sourcing, or category management, in manufacturing or FMCG. Fast-growth scale-up experience helps.
Savings you can point to and explain.
Proof you can run end to end without someone setting the agenda for you.
Commercial instinct, ownership, and a steady hand when things move fast.
Fluent English.
The right to work in the Netherlands. We're not an IND sponsor, so we can't sponsor a visa.
You’re available at least 4 days on-site in our Amsterdam office in Houthavens.
International sourcing.
Food-contact and regulatory compliance: EU 10/2011, REACH, CE.
Producing through contract manufacturers.
AI in your daily workflow, and a builder's instinct.
Hands-on, cross-functional ownership across costing, negotiation, international sourcing, and category strategy. Strong performers move toward senior procurement and category-lead roles, with wider strategic scope or a team as the function scales.
You will be part of a young, fun and ambitious team which aims to change the way people consume water!
