As a global market leader, we'll give you what you need to make it happen. It won't always be easy, growing takes grit. But at ABB, you'll never run alone. Run what runs the world.
At ABB, we are committed to driving innovation and transformation across industries. As part of our Robotics company, you will help shape the future of automation by leading strategic vendor partnerships that deliver commercial value, performance, and innovation.

Manage and negotiate contracts across a 100M USD+ annual vendor portfolio, ensuring financial discipline and risk mitigation
Drive vendor performance through KPIs, SLAs, audits, and continuous improvement initiatives
Promote vendor-led innovation to support ABB's automation and digitalization agenda

In this role, you will also lead a global team, collaborate with stakeholders across Procurement, Finance, Legal, IS, and Business Units, and act as the senior escalation point for vendor issues. You will guide vendors through transitions to new service models, including cloud adoption, and ensure alignment with ABB Robotics' long-term objectives.

Exciting Career Opportunity in Robotics
This role is part of ABB's Robotics business, which is preparing to become an independent company.
