Welcome to BIO Procurement
You’ll be part of our Sourcing team where you, together with your colleagues, will be responsible for sourcing activities related to our carbon-neutral energy production at our power plants in Denmark. The team supports the business with category management and sourcing management and is anchored in a large and leading procurement organisation, ensuring collaboration across the company and access to knowledge sessions and specialist training programmes.
