  • Guaranteeing the best offers for the hotel network
  • Guaranteeing profitability of the contract with your suppliers for Astore
  • Managing suppliers’ relationship:
  • Organising business reviews: Renegotiate offers with your existing ones (conditions, prices, product lists…)
  • Sourcing and contracting new suppliers when needed, exiting suppliers when needed
  • Deploying your suppliers’ solutions in the hotels
  • Supporting your management for key information, such as keeping track of the major KPIs, analysis of spend, follow up of declarative campaigns
  • Leading tenders with our e-Sourcing tool. Being able to present hotel owners and management tender analyses / syntheses for decision-making
  • On certain occasions you will be leading CAPEX tenders for specific owners (room refurbishment, HVAC replacement, lift upgrades…)

Qualifications

Your Profile:

  • Fluency in French, Dutch and English
  • Minimum Bachelor's degree or equivalent through experience (business or engineer)
  • A first experience in procurement (Category Management or Capex procurement)
  • 2-3 years of experience in procurement (capex – or category management)
  • Affinity for technical topics appreciated
  • Strong communication skills and adaptability towards hotel owners and suppliers
  • Autonomy, proactivity, and rigour
  • Team player

As a category manager, opportunities to grow within the team and Accor will be possible. We are looking to onboard someone with an eagerness to develop his/her skills and knowledge in a multicultural setting.

  • Annual base salary ranging from € 68.000 to € 72.000
