RCRomaric -> Veo · practical work proposal

A practical proposal after our conversations

After speaking with Veo, I wanted to make the next step practical.

I see a strong fit where technical procurement, supplier/NPI work and supply-chain operations meet. If Veo has a role or real need that fits that background, I want to contribute.

If the need is clear, ordinary paid employment is my preferred route. If direct employment is not the right starting point, I can also start through a supported paid route or a short, defined proof period.

What this page is for: show what I bring, one example of useful work I could own, and practical ways to start without forcing the fit into one job title.

Veo-specific work proposal · noindex

Why now

The Senior Buyer process made the fit clearer to me. Rather than simply wait for another opening, I would rather contribute on something useful, learn Veo's products, suppliers and way of working through real work, and see how the fit works in practice.

If a relevant need develops later, Veo would already know how I work, and I would already understand much more of the operating context.

01 / What I bring

I work best where purchasing decisions affect suppliers, materials and production.

The common thread is practical ownership across supplier decisions, technical change, material visibility and production consequence.

30+EU / US suppliers in recent technical sourcing scope
200+complex multi-level product structures created / validated
2,000+AX/D365 purchasing, product and planning records
100+cost / sales-price data discrepancies identified during commercial checks
Procurement & suppliers

Source, negotiate and recover

RFQs, supplier evaluation and selection, commercial negotiation, alternatives, framework/call-off execution, capacity constraints and supplier-quality recovery across mechanical, electrotechnical/electronics, materials and technical services.

NPI & readiness

Carry technical change into supply execution

Drawings, BOMs, revisions, prototypes and FAI translated into supplier timing, material exposure, documentation, cost and production-readiness action while technical approval stays with Engineering/Quality.

Operations & visibility

Make the real constraint visible

Forecast/MRP, demand, stock, incoming supply, lead time and ERP/WMS accuracy used to prioritise shortages, alternatives and next actions before buying, expediting, reallocating or escalating.

Two examples behind that: I recovered a smaller supplier after growth exposed a real capacity limit, and during roughly three weeks of reduced coverage I kept critical supplier, material, ERP and production-readiness work moving across work normally shared among three people.

02 / Why Veo

The interface is already familiar.

The Veo-specific part for me is the product and supplier context, not learning how to work across Purchasing, technical change and Production.

What stayed with me from the interviews was how closely Purchasing works with suppliers, R&D and Production. That is the kind of environment where I am strongest: understanding the need, making the supplier and material reality visible, and carrying the issue through to a practical next step. I would be learning Veo's products, suppliers and category specifics while contributing on an interface I already know well.

03 / One real example

One real, bounded problem is enough.

Veo chooses the actual problem. The example below only shows the kind of output I would aim to leave.

What I establishApproved technical baseline, demand/date, stock and open supply, supplier capacity/lead time, quality/documentation and current commitments.
What I work throughShortage or cutover exposure, supplier recovery, alternatives/RFQ, commercial trade-offs, ownership and escalation boundaries.
What Veo getsA clear action view with owners, dates, supplier commitments, alternatives and the remaining risks made explicit.

Example A

New component or revision readiness

Old/new demand, open POs, approved revision, supplier readiness, qualification status and a controlled cutover action list.

Example B

Supplier capacity or recovery

Validate real capacity and backlog, demand alignment, quality/documentation blockers, realistic recovery dates, alternatives and escalation.

04 / If Veo wants to see it in practice

Three working weeks can be enough to do useful work and see how the fit works.

The point is not to master Veo in three weeks. It is to make useful progress on one real problem while I learn the Veo-specific context and the team sees how I work.

WEEK 01 · UNDERSTAND

Learn the system around the problem

Confirm scope, technical owner, need, revision, supplier/component context, data sources and decision boundaries. Leave the first readiness/risk view.

WEEK 02 · WORK

Turn uncertainty into options

Validate supplier reality, stock/open supply, quality/docs, lead time/capacity, commercial terms and credible alternatives. Start the agreed actions.

WEEK 03 · DELIVER

Leave useful progress

Work the agreed RFQ, recovery, cutover or supplier action; close what can be closed and make remaining decisions, owners, dates and risks explicit.

Optional week 4: use it only if it improves validation, handover or the continuation decision.
Electronics/electrotechnical purchasing is already part of my background. At Veo, the new part would be your product, supplier market and category specifics. I can learn that while contributing immediately on sourcing, supplier recovery, NPI/change, ERP/MRP, quality and production readiness.

05 / Ways to start

Choose the route that matches the real need.

The point is not the programme. The point is useful work and, if the fit is right, a real paid role.

Route A · Hire directly

If Veo sees a genuine need where my background fits, ordinary paid employment is the cleanest route. That could be procurement/sourcing, supplier or NPI work, supply-chain/operations, or another cross-functional role using the same technical-commercial operating pattern.

Route B · Paid ramp-up

If Veo has sustained work and a supported entry route is useful, private løntilskud can provide a real paid employment period while I deepen the Veo-specific context and contribute on live work.

Route C · Short proof first

If Veo wants evidence before a longer commitment, use one bounded problem for three working weeks, with a fourth week only if it improves the result or handover.

Next step

If there is a fit, let us choose the simplest way to start.

If there is already a role or need that matches my background, I would prefer to start there. If Veo wants evidence first, one real problem and a short period of working together can show how I contribute and how quickly I learn the Veo-specific context. If a relevant need develops later, neither side is starting from zero.
