Sourcing Director EMEA – Troax
What does it take to turn a global sourcing strategy into real competitive advantage across diverse markets? This role sits right at that intersection, where strategy meets execution, supplier partnerships, and long-term business impact.
Your new team
The regional management team in EMEA plays a key role in shaping Troax’s continued growth. Collaboration here is close, pragmatic, and built on trust, whether aligning with manufacturing units, working alongside R&D and quality, or partnering with finance and sustainability. As part of this team, sourcing becomes a true business enabler rather than a support function.
About the job
The Regional Sourcing Director EMEA leads the execution of the global sourcing strategy across the region, ensuring alignment with long-term business goals while adapting to local market realities. The role bridges global priorities and regional needs, driving performance through people, suppliers, and data.
Leading and developing the regional sourcing community is central. A high-performing culture takes shape through clear direction, mentorship, and collaboration. At the same time, strong ownership of supplier performance, sourcing initiatives, and category strategies ensures measurable results.
Key areas of responsibility include:
Driving and adapting sourcing strategies in line with global direction
Leading and developing the regional sourcing team and community
Supporting Strategic Sourcing Leads in supplier performance management, contracts, and commercial negotiations
Ensuring risk management, supply continuity, and sustainability compliance
Delivering KPIs and insights through data-driven decision-making
The role also contributes actively to market intelligence, identifying trends and opportunities, and translating them into competitive advantages for the business. Close collaboration with stakeholders across manufacturing, engineering, quality, and finance ensures that sourcing is fully integrated into operations.
Location
The position is based in the EMEA region, with regular interaction across Troax sites and teams. The role reports to the Regional President EMEA, with a functional connection to the VP Sourcing & Sustainability.
Profile
A relevant academic background within supply chain, procurement or similar is in place, or equivalent expertise built through hands-on experience. Strong knowledge of strategic sourcing and category management supports confident decision-making, ideally within a manufacturing environment. Experience working with ERP systems, business intelligence tools, and data-driven processes enables effective performance tracking and improvements. A solid understanding of sustainability and its impact on sourcing is also important, alongside excellent proficiency in English.
Curiosity drives continuous improvement, and analytical thinking helps turn complex data into clear direction. Collaboration comes naturally, with the ability to build strong relationships across functions and cultures. Communication is clear and confident, making it easy to inspire, align, and influence others. Leading by example feels natural, contributing to a culture of accountability, trust, and high performance.
Why Join Troax? A global company with a strong Swedish heritage, where innovation, safety, and people come first. The environment is collaborative and forward-looking, offering the opportunity to shape sourcing strategy and make a real business impact.
