Oh, hey there you found us.
(Of course you did, you’re a sourcing pro.)
You may know a bit about us already, or we may be brand new to you. Either way, let’s recap quickly.
So we’re Loop. We make earplugs. But not the boring kind the iconic, sound-enhancing kind. Where people are free to lose themselves in every moment. At their own volume and in their own style.
This year alone we’re bringing five newproductstomarket. And we want to make sure that the product concepts put forward by our product management team can be put into mass production in China. That’s why we’re on the hunt for a Sourcing amp; Production Engineer, who can act as a consultant for both the operations and productdevelopmentteams.
You’ll be their adviser across the whole development process. Guiding them on production costs, possibilities, and limitations and you’ll be listened to every step of the way.
We’re growing rapidly, which means life at Loop is fast-paced and varied. This might be one of the reasons this role has piqued your interestare we right?
Great, that’s what we like to hear. Now it’s time for us to reveal even more about our bright shiny future together and see how we fit together.
Here’s what we’re thinking:
You’re a bridge-builder (and a great one at that)
Future you is pretty impressive. You worked hard to build a connection between our productdevelopment and operations teams. There used to be a lack of procurementsupplierstrategy. Products and projects were stuck in the concept stage, with teams working alongside each other so near yet so far.
As part of the operations team, you worked with the Operations Manager, Cédric, to bring everything together. And thanks to your incredible communication skills, you bridged the gap between the teams and brought productstolife.
You’re our product cost visionary
Your internationalprojectmanagementexperience in third-party manufacturing has been invaluable. It’s helped our engineering team to bring their fantastic concepts to working massproduction lines in China.
And you’ve kept a bird’s-eye view on costs, from the concept stage all the way through to the final product. Not only that, but you’ve created visibility in the cost structures, proposing even better alternatives when needed keeping us on budget. You’re going to have a big impact on how efficient our product development is, from budget to speed-to-market.
You challenge us all (external partners included), in the best possible way
A major quality that we admire in you is that you’re not afraid to challenge all departments. On product cost, specifications, technology, and materials even our suppliers when it comes to commodities and production techniques.
You own product-related costs and make sure everyone is held accountable, in a positive and inspiring way.
