About the Role
Base is seeking a Global Supply Manager to establish and manage its raw and bulk materials category, starting with adhesives, TIM, potting compounds, chemicals, and paint, and expanding to upstream battery materials like lithium and graphite, as well as structural materials such as steel and aluminum. This role involves defining sourcing strategies and supplier relationships proactively, collaborating with category leads and manufacturing engineering.
Responsibilities
- Own commercial sourcing for adhesives, TIM, potting compounds, chemicals, and paint across the Base Core BOM, from supplier selection through piece-price negotiation and production support.
- Build Base’s sourcing strategy for upstream battery raw materials, including lithium, carbon/graphite, anode, and cathode materials, to support Base’s battery supply chain as it scales.
- Build Base’s sourcing strategy for electrical steel and other foundational structural materials, including aluminum, cold-rolled steel, and copper.
- Track commodity market dynamics, including pricing, supply risk, and geographic concentration, for each raw material category to inform make-vs-buy and hedging decisions.
- Partner with Base’s Metals and Cells category owners and Manufacturing Engineering to align raw materials strategy across the broader supply chain.
Requirements
- Direct experience owning a raw or bulk materials category at an OEM or industrial manufacturer (lithium, graphite, steel, aluminum, or a comparable commodity), including supplier negotiation and market strategy.
- Comfort building a sourcing strategy and supplier base from scratch, with no existing playbook or incumbent relationships to inherit.
- Fluency in commodity market dynamics, including pricing mechanisms, hedging, and geographic supply concentration, and how they translate into commercial strategy.
- Strong organizational skills to align raw materials strategy with adjacent categories and sourcing roadmaps that are still taking shape.
Work Type
- In-person
