Introduction

Would you like to learn the procurement profession in the world of aviation and technology? As a Junior IT Buyer at KLM, you’ll help procure the IT services and applications that support our day-to-day operations. You’ll learn how to compare suppliers, assess quotations and document agreements. Your curiosity, commercial interest and motivation to learn are the starting point for this role.

As part of the IT Development & Services team, you’ll work with experienced buyers and colleagues from different KLM business units. You’ll learn on the job and gradually take on more responsibility. This is an opportunity to develop your skills while contributing to reliable, future-proof operations.

What are you going to do?

From digital solutions for passengers to software used in aircraft maintenance, IT is essential to KLM. You’ll help us procure the right IT services and applications. Working with experienced buyers, you’ll identify what colleagues need, explore which suppliers could meet those needs, and help prepare procurement and contract processes. You’ll start by providing support and take on more tasks independently as your knowledge and experience grow.

You’ll contribute by:

  • Supporting colleagues in one or more KLM business units with their day-to-day IT procurement requests. You’ll clarify their requirements and work with an experienced buyer to decide on the appropriate next steps.
  • Researching the market, requesting quotations and comparing offers. Alongside experienced buyers and internal stakeholders, you’ll help prepare RFPs, RFIs and contracts. This will teach you what to consider when selecting suppliers and agreeing terms.
  • Learning about the IT supplier market and discussing relevant developments with your colleagues, building knowledge you can apply directly in your work.

Where do you land?

You’ll join the IT Development & Services team, part of the joint IT procurement organisation of Air France and KLM. You’ll work with colleagues from both airlines on a range of projects and areas of focus. Your main focus will be procuring IT services and applications. Your base will be Schiphol-Rijk.

Your profile

You’re keen to develop a career in procurement and have an interest in technology. You enjoy researching information, comparing offers and working with others to find the right solution. You ask questions, welcome feedback and are comfortable saying what you’d like to learn. If you’ve recently graduated and are looking for your first job, we’d like to hear what motivates you.

What you bring:

  • A completed relevant degree at higher professional education (HBO) level.
  • You’re at the start of your procurement career. Experience from an internship, graduation project or first job is a plus.
  • An interest in IT and a desire to learn more about the supplier market, including the outsourcing and management of IT services (managed services) and IT consultancy.
  • Excellent spoken and written Dutch and English, enabling you to work effectively in our international organisation.

You’ll recognise yourself in the following:

  • You find it easy to connect with people and handle commitments with colleagues and suppliers carefully.
  • You enjoy working with others, can take on tasks independently when appropriate, and ask for help when you need it.
  • You take initiative, ask questions and use feedback to support your development.
  • You have a commercial mindset and are keen to learn how to weigh up price, quality and other terms.
