TriVista Places Director of Procurement

The Challenge

A private equity-owned, $50M provider of power conversion, battery charging, and battery products needed to add a Director of Procurement to an energetic management team engaged in integrating several businesses.

Our Approach

• The TriVista Recruitment team hosted an in-depth kick-off meeting to gain a thorough understanding of the role’s requirements and the firm’s overall business objectives
• Recruiters targeted individuals with both the breadth of experience and a roll-up-the sleeve, can-do attitude
• Candidates were qualified based on their ability to perform make v. buy analysis, global sourcing, and experience with acquisition integration or facility consolidation

The Results

The selected procurement professional was an MBA supply chain veteran with expertise in vendor relationship management, material management, logistics/transportation, and P&L responsibility in manufacturing & distribution environments.
