We are seeking an experienced Sourcing Assistant to support us on a contract basis in identifying, contacting and shortlisting manufacturers for a number of new product concepts currently in development. This is a targeted research and outreach engagement — ideal for someone who knows how to navigate global supply chains and has direct experience working with contract manufacturers in the food supplement and as well as chemicals space. We are producing brand new products that must meet strict nutritional and/or formulation criteria and must ensure we work with reputable, reliable manufacturers.
