Mutares SE & Co. KGaA, Munich (www.mutares.com), as a listed private equity holding company, acquires medium-sized companies in special situations, which show significant operational improvement potential and are sold again after undergoing a repositioning and stabilization process. Mutares actively support its portfolio companies with its own investment and operations teams and through strategic add-on acquisitions. The focus is on companies with revenues ranging from EUR 100 million to EUR 750 million, across various industries. The aim is to achieve a clear value increase with a focus on sustainable, long-term growth of the portfolio company.




We are seeking an experienced procurement professional with deep expertise in chemicals, feedstock, and intermediates sourcing - someone who brings operational rigor, an entrepreneurial mindset, and a strong drive for measurable improvement. This EU-based role requires regular onsite support at portfolio companies across Europe and plays a critical part in strengthening upstream procurement performance. 



  • Lead the strategic and operational sourcing of key feedstocks and intermediates across oxo‑chemicals, aromatics, carbonyls, and polymer precursors  

  • Develop and execute sourcing strategies that enhance cost competitiveness, supply security, and supplier diversification 

  • Conduct market, cost‑structure, and price analyses for both feedstocks and intermediates with commodity‑driven or regulated dynamics 

  • Negotiate long‑term agreements with producers and distributors, incorporating indexation, volume alignment, and risk‑mitigation mechanisms 

  • Deliver tangible financial impact through supplier consolidation, process optimization, and improved commercial terms 

  • Partner closely with the Mutares cross‑functional restructuring team to align decisions and ensure effective execution of procurement initiatives 


  • Degree in business, economics, engineering, supply chain, or related field 

  • At least 6 years of chemical‑sector procurement experience, including leading and developing procurement initiatives 

  • Solid upstream chemical supply‑chain knowledge paired with a track record in complex contract negotiation and cost improvement 

  • Analytical, hands‑on, and entrepreneurial mindset with strong problem‑solving skills 

  • Business fluency in Spanish & English & willingness to travel up to 4 days per week across the EU


  • Work in a highly motivated, international, committed, and agile team that enjoys working together

  • Exciting work environment with varied challenges, strategic influence, and tasks for continuous personal and professional development

  • Flat hierarchies, fast decision-making processes, and room for your own ideas

  • Regular team events and offsites
