Procurement at MDLZ Building Our HUB in Warsaw

Procurement at Mondelēz International is more than buying. It is an integral part of our business strategy. Our procurement process starts with understanding, even predicting, what our business needs and preparing to meet demand. We then have to set quality standards, build winning relationships with suppliers so they keep us up to date with innovations in their area, receive goods and services, and approve payments. Markets for the commodities we need – such as cocoa, coffee and sugar – are volatile, so we have to manage risks and control the impact of fluctuating prices.

For me, Procurement at MDLZ is a lot about leading in partnership with the business. We need to have a common agenda with the business, that’s crucial. Ultimately, it’s about being a trusted partner and leading from the front. We negotiate the best deals for both Mondelēz International and our suppliers and bring in new ideas and new ways of working to support and advance the business. Another exciting part of working in Procurement is to be the “Eye of the company” in the outside world. We’re involved right the way through the development of a new product.

I was first attracted to Mondelēz International because of the great opportunities to learn and to work with international teams. The best thing is that we are able to create great teams of professionals; we are able to deliver in an efficient way, working together in a very good atmosphere, respecting and supporting each other. My advice for other Procurement professionals? Be open to new challenges... Do not be afraid to leave your comfort zone - this will always improve your skills and learning agility. The international environment at our Warsaw hub gives us plenty of opportunities to learn about different cultures and meet new & interesting people!
