The Manager is responsible for identifying, evaluating, and onboarding high-quality suppliers to meet diverse organizational requirements, including heavy construction materials such as rods, cement, sand, stone, electrical items, and office furniture. The role requires building and maintaining strong supplier relationships to ensure reliability, quality, and continuity of supply.
