They work under the guidance of senior commodity managers to help develop sourcing strategies, negotiate with suppliers, analyze market trends, and ensure cost-effective purchasing. Their role often includes coordinating with internal stakeholders and suppliers to maintain supply chain efficiency and manage risks related to commodity price fluctuations.
