  • Process Improvement: Utilize ERP data (Oracle/SAP) to track performance and identify opportunities for cost savings or lead-time reductions.

What You Bring:


Education & Experience:
  • Degree: Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Business, or a related field.
  • Track Record: 3+ years of experience in purchasing or supply chain, ideally within a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
  • Technical Literacy: Ability to read and interpret mechanical and fabrication drawings is essential.

  • Core Knowledge: Strong understanding of BOM analysis, material flow, and supplier logistics.
  • Negotiation: Basic-to-intermediate negotiation skills with a focus on value and reliability.
Core Competencies:
  • Precision: An eagle eye for detail in specs, POs, and recordkeeping.
