DAF Trucks N.V.

Purchasing


Entrepreneurship is the most important characteristic of a DAF buyer - a ‘heavyweight’ who knows how to convince in negotiations with suppliers and who often also has a technical background.

This is because we make every effort to involve the supplier at as early a stage as possible in our development process, so that we can reach the best solution together.

75% of the cost price of a truck is made up of parts that DAF purchases from suppliers throughout the world, so Purchasing plays a very important part in DAF’s success. The challenge for Purchasing is to obtain maximum advantage from the purchase of material, commodities, services and logistics - in terms of price and delivery reliability, but primarily in terms of quality.

Are you a 'heavyweight' with the ability to convince suppliers during negotiations? And do you ideally also have a technical background? Then apply directly.

Examples of positions within Purchasing:

  • Commodity Manager
  • Commodity Unit Manager
  • Supplier Quality Manager
