HR Business Partner (Switzerland) Zug

Trinity Procurement GmbH (“Trinity”) is a brand new enterprise formed to manage the global procurement activities of SABMiller plc, one of the world’s largest brewers with brewing interests and sales and distribution agreements spanning six continents.
Headquartered in Steinhausen in the Canton of Zug, Switzerland, Trinity will create value for its customers and investors through excellence in purchasing across an extensive range of commodities, including brewing materials, packaging materials, capital equipment and other assets and non-production spend. The steady state annual value of spend under management is expected to exceed US$10bn by 2016. By this time, Trinity is targeted to deliver annual savings in excess of US$200m for its customers and investors referenced against 2008 spend levels.
A global centre of excellence, Trinity will act economically and fiscally as an entrepreneur, taking on varying degrees of risk in purchasing. In respect of this it will earn reward; either a mark up on the cost of its goods sold or a fee for service delivery.
Whilst the headquarters operation in Zug will provide the strategic leadership and intellectual nucleus of the business, the organisation will also comprise three regional teams dispersed strategically across the international customer and supplier network. Forming part of the overall international matrix structure, these teams will be located in Johannesburg (South Africa), Bogotá (Colombia) and Baar (Switzerland). When fully established, the business is expected to employ almost 100 staff, representing a highly complex, multi-cultural workforce comprised, in many instances, of international leaders in their field and characterised by its intellectual rigour, strategic appreciation and focus on value creation.
The creation of the required structures to support this global procurement organisation and to develop the optimal sourcing strategies is now well underway. A critical component of this focuses on securing, retaining and developing the required talent referred to above and developing and embedding an appropriate employment infrastructure and culture to underpin the fulfilment of the company’s highly demanding goals.
