As an Area Manager, you will be responsible for engaging and retaining suppliers in your regional portfolio in Poland. We work with scrap yards that have a significant scale of operations and mature existing processes. However, to maximize the value we deliver to a particular scrapyard, we need to understand their existing processes, adapt our offerings to their needs, and combine the two to ensure a strong fit.
