About the role

The Global and European Procurement Organization of ArcelorMittal (EPO) manages more than $30bn/year of spend across raw materials, industrial products, services, equipment, energy and logistics.

We are looking for a Buyer within Steelmaking & Finishing, who will take ownership of a strategic European portfolio of approximately €100m/year. The role combines market analysis, strategy, negotiation and execution in complex industrial markets, with exposure to energy, CO₂, raw materials, logistics and supply risk.

We are looking for exceptional potential rather than a predefined career path: someone intellectually curious, analytically strong and able to turn complexity into clear decisions and measurable value.

Responsibilities:

Strategy and Analysis

Develop fact-based sourcing and category strategies for a strategic European portfolio.
Analyse markets, cost drivers, supplier economics, competitive dynamics and supply risks.
Build business cases, scenarios and Total Cost of Ownership analyses to support major decisions.

Negotiation and Value Creation

Prepare and lead high-impact supplier negotiations and commercial decisions.
Challenge assumptions, identify value opportunities and develop innovative sourcing solutions.
Contribute to long-term supply, investment, asset and risk-management projects.

Execution and Influence

Turn strategy into results across multiple European plants and stakeholders.
Prepare concise executive presentations, recommendations and decision papers for management.
Build effective relationships with suppliers and internal teams while challenging constructively.
Track performance, savings, risks and key strategic initiatives.

Profile Required:

Strong academic background, graduates from Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Economics, Finance, Business or other rigorous disciplines.
Fluent in English. Any additional European language is a plus.
Exceptional analytical and structured problem-solving skills.
Strong numerical reasoning and ability to work confidently with data, economics and financial scenarios.
Ability to understand complex industrial and commercial topics quickly and identify what really matters.
Clear, concise communication and strong executive presentation skills.
Commercial instinct, influence and negotiation potential.
Intellectual curiosity, learning agility and sound judgement.
Ownership, drive and willingness to challenge the status quo.
Ability to work effectively in an international, cross-functional environment
Candidates should bring intellectual horsepower, curiosity, drive and the ability to make an impact.
