Buyer
Description

Manufacturing | Supply Chain | Procurement


If you like owning supplier relationships, negotiating real value, and making sure production never waits on parts — this role’s for you. We’re looking for a Buyer who knows manufacturing, thinks ahead, and isn’t afraid to push for better cost, quality, and delivery.


What You’ll Do (Day to Day)

  • Source, evaluate, and onboard suppliers that can meet our quality, cost, and delivery standards
  • Negotiate pricing, contracts, and terms to drive value — not just savings on paper
  • Monitor supplier performance and step in fast when quality, cost, or delivery slip
  • Partner closely with Production, Engineering, and Quality to ensure materials meet specs and timelines
  • Manage inventory levels to support manufacturing without overstocking
  • Research markets, materials, and suppliers to stay ahead of risk and opportunity
  • Build and present procurement reports and insights to leadership
  • Ensure purchasing activities align with company policies and ethical standards
  • Support procurement strategies and continuous improvement initiatives
Requirements

What We’re Looking For

  • Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain, Business, or a related field (preferred, not precious)
  • 2–4 years of buying or procurement experience, ideally in manufacturing
  • Exposure to global sourcing and international trade regulations is a plus
  • Strong grasp of procurement fundamentals and supplier management
  • Confident negotiator with solid contract management skills
  • Comfortable working in ERP systems (NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, or similar)
  • Analytical thinker who solves problems instead of escalating them
  • Clear communicator who works well across functions
  • Organized, detail-oriented, and able to juggle multiple priorities

Work Environment

  • Office-based with regular computer work
  • Ability to lift up to 15 lbs with or without assistance
  • Access to manufacturing and warehouse areas as needed
  • Occasional travel may be required

Why This Role Matters

This Buyer directly impacts production uptime, product quality, and cost discipline. You won’t be buried in approvals — you’ll have real ownership, visibility, and influence across the operation.
