Join Ford Motor Credit Company

We are the movers of the world and the makers of the future. We get up every day, roll up our sleeves and build a better world together. At Ford, we are all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Are you ready to change the way the world moves? The Ford Motor Credit Company team helps put people behind the wheels of great Ford and Lincoln vehicles. By partnering with dealerships, we provide financing, personalized service and professional expertise to thousands of dealers and millions of customers in over one hundred countries around the world.

Ford Credit is evolving its software and services to maintain its leadership in the captive finance market. The Procurement Team is responsible for sourcing indirect solutions, ensuring they are delivered on time, within budget, and in compliance with regulatory requirements. As a Buyer, you will contribute to this mission through teamwork, collaboration, and strong communication, helping to secure the best products and services from the right partners, at the right price, with outstanding quality and customer service.

What you'll do...

  • Perform analysis of complex data sets and contribute to reporting related to sourcing activities.
  • Support the development of cost-saving strategies and roadmaps for category management.
  • Provide direct support for existing and new purchased services for Ford Credit operations.
  • Support business owners who may have limited experience with Ford Supply Chain and Purchasing processes, policies, and systems.
  • Act as a key liaison between suppliers, business owners, and various internal teams to negotiate purchase order terms, conditions, and statements of work.
  • Participate in Request for Information (RFI), Request for Proposal (RFP), and Request for Quotation (RFQ) initiatives to evaluate services and support sourcing decisions.
  • Conduct appropriate sourcing activities to deliver quality services at the best cost, with minimal risks to Ford Motor Credit Company.
  • Provide feedback to valued supply partners on their cost position relative to the market to help build effective long-term, productive relationships.
  • Collaborate with business owners and internal stakeholders to stay informed about current and future technologies, understand the latest supply base footprint, and analyze financial health ratings and trends of suppliers.
  • Participate in the due diligence process for new supplier onboarding.

You'll have...

  • Bachelor's Degree
  • A minimum of 10 years of experience, with a background in the Financial Industry being a plus.
  • Strong business acumen, a collaborative spirit, and excellent communication skills, with a demonstrated ability to effectively work within cross-functional teams.
  • Strong negotiation skills and a solid understanding of Supply Chain and Purchasing Policies & Procedures, sourcing requirements, and key milestones.
  • Strong analytical skills for sourcing analysis, business case studies, and cost analysis (including understanding cost drivers and modeling). Experience with business case evaluation and risk assessment (e.g., cost analytics, Global Terms).
  • Ability to think concurrently, maintain focus, manage priorities, and drive results in a fast-paced, evolving environment. High energy and adaptability are key.
  • Commercial creativity and the ability to negotiate effectively even in situations with low leverage, especially in areas not typically cost-based.
  • Proficiency in Excel, and knowledge / experience in Aurora / Ariba is preferred.
  • Experience in contract development, including an understanding of service contracts, Statements of Work (SOWs), Service Level Agreements (SLAs), and performance management by metrics.
  • A curious, creative, versatile, and strategic mindset, with the ability to see the bigger picture.
  • Strong ability to productively manage meetings, prepare effective agendas, and communicate meeting minutes and decisions to key stakeholders.
