The Role The supplier relationships Halter builds today will define what we're capable of building tomorrow. The components we source, the contract manufacturers we partner with, and the commercial terms we secure are not procurement decisions. They are strategic decisions that shape our cost structure, our product quality, our supply chain resilience, and our ability to scale. The Head of Strategic Sourcing owns those decisions. You'll identify and bring on the right suppliers and contract manufacturing partners, develop the relationships we already have, and negotiate the commercial deals that give Halter a genuine advantage. Your remit spans the full supply base, from the smallest component supplier through to our most critical contract manufacturing partners. This is a high-impact, externally facing role. You'll spend significant time on the ground with suppliers and CMs, building the kind of trust-based relationships that open doors, unlock preferential terms, and create partners who want to invest in Halter's success. You'll bring the commercial sharpness to negotiate hard and the relationship instincts to know when to push and when to build. You'll work closely with the supply chain leadership team, the quality team, the Operations Delivery Lead, and hardware engineering. Sourcing decisions don't happen in isolation, and the best ones happen when commercial, technical, and operational perspectives are in the room together. You'll be measured on the quality of the supplier base you build, the commercial outcomes you secure, and the strength of the relationships you develop across Halter's supply chain. What You'll Do New Supplier Identification and Selection - Own the end-to-end process of identifying, evaluating, and onboarding new suppliers and contract manufacturing partners across all categories, from initial market mapping through to commercial agreement. - Develop and maintain a clear view of the global supplier landscape for Halter's key component categories, identifying opportunities to access better capability, lower cost, or reduced supply risk. - Work with hardware engineering and the quality team to assess technical capability and quality readiness as part
