The Opportunity

  • We are seeking a highly skilled and proactive Procurement Specialist to join our dynamic team at Lily Hospitals.

  • Knowledge of ISO or healthcare procurement standards is a plus.

Experience & Skills:

  • Minimum of 5 years experience in procurement.
  • Proven experience in strategic sourcing, tendering, and cost optimization.
  • Excellent negotiation, vendor management, and documentation skills.
  • Strong analytical skills and proficiency with procurement and ERP tools.
