Some insight into the role:

As the responsible person for the "Airports and Operations" category, you will have the main responsibility for purchasing services performed at all our destinations.

To thrive in the role, we believe you have:

• Strong analytical and numerical abilities
• Good communication skills, both orally and in writing, especially in English
• Experience in leading large and small projects and procurement processes
• Flexibility regarding travel for negotiations and supplier contact

What we can offer:

Our procurement team is located in our offices in Barcelona and Riga, in addition to Fornebu. The right person can choose their place of work or choose to work part of the year in one or more of these locations.

• An independent role with full responsibility for your own portfolio

• A unique work environment consisting of very positive and opportunity-seeking colleagues
