Retained search: an international supply chain / distribution organisation is appointing an experienced VP Procurement APAC (Head) to lead the next phase of procurement transformation across Asia.

This is a build-and-transform mandate for an accomplished leader who has already held the top procurement seat within a sizeable, complex business. The successful candidate will set the regional procurement agenda while staying close to execution: personally leading critical transport sourcing, major supplier negotiations and high-value commercial decisions when required.

The role can be based in Petaling Jaya Malaysia, Bangkok Thailand, Manila Philippines, or Indonesia.

Key responsibilities

  • Lead the end-to-end procurement function across strategy, sourcing, category management, supplier performance, governance and capability
  • Drive measurable value through transport procurement, competitive tendering, contract discipline and supplier accountability
  • Lead major negotiations and commercial decisions across a complex, multi-country operating environment
  • Strengthen procurement processes, data, systems, analytics and operating-model effectiveness
  • Partner closely with Finance, Operations and country leadership on material cost and investment decisions
  • Build and lead a high-performing regional and in-market procurement organisation

Key Requirements

  • Proven experience as the senior-most procurement leader for a regional, group or sizeable country operation, with full procurement accountability
  • Deep, demonstrable transport/distribution procurement expertise, including strategic sourcing, tendering, supplier management and major contract negotiations
  • Experience leading large-scale procurement mandates in distribution, supply chain, logistics, industrial or similarly operating-intensive businesses
  • Strong record of delivering transformation and commercial value while remaining hands-on in operationally critical decisions
  • Executive presence and credibility with C-suite, operational and country stakeholders

This is a strictly confidential retained assignment. Full client details will be shared with relevant candidates following an initial qualification discussion.
