Salary: $120,000 - $140,000 per year
A bit about us:
We are a rapidly growing leader in electrical power services supporting critical infrastructure across the energy, utility, industrial, and mission-critical markets. Backed by significant investment and continued growth, we are building a more sophisticated strategic sourcing organization from the ground up.
This is an opportunity for an experienced sourcing professional who wants less bureaucracy, more visibility, and the ability to make a measurable impact on how a growing organization sources critical electrical products and services.
Why join us?
- Competitive base salary in the $120,000 - $140,000 range
- Hybrid work schedule
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k) plan with company match
- Generous paid time off and paid holidays
- Ongoing professional development, training, and certification opportunities
- Stable, growing organization with long-term career advancement potential
- Collaborative, in-person work environment focused on continuous improvement
- Opportunity to make a direct, measurable impact on cost savings and supply continuity
We are seeking a Sourcing Manager focused on direct strategic sourcing of technical electrical products and services.
This is not a traditional Buyer or PO-processing position. We need someone who understands the complete strategic sourcing lifecycle-from market research and supplier identification through RFP/RFQ development, negotiations, business-case presentation, contract execution, and implementation.
The successful candidate will also have enough technical understanding of electrical products and services to establish credibility with engineering and operations stakeholders.
What You'll Do
- Lead end-to-end strategic sourcing initiatives for technical products and services.
- Develop sourcing strategies for categories including switch gear, transformers, relays, motors, drives, bearings, cable, wire, connectors, electrical consumables, and related services.
- Conduct market research and identify qualified manufacturers, distributors, and service providers.
- Develop and execute formal RFP/RFQ processes.
- Analyze supplier capabilities, pricing, risk, quality, and total cost.
- Lead supplier negotiations and execute commercial agreements.
- Build and present sourcing business cases to internal stakeholders and leadership.
- Partner closely with engineering and operations teams to understand technical requirements and gain stakeholder buy-in.
- Develop primary and secondary supplier strategies to improve supply continuity and reduce risk.
- Manage supplier performance and identify opportunities for cost savings and continuous improvement.
- Help implement and mature formal strategic sourcing processes across the organization.
- 5+ years of hands-on strategic purchasing/negotiation experience preferred, with at least 3 years specifically focused on strategic sourcing.
- Experience sourcing technical electrical products and/or services.
- Working knowledge of products such as switch gear, transformers, motors, drives, relays, electrical components, cable/wire, or similar equipment.
- Demonstrated experience applying a formal 6-7 step strategic sourcing process to real sourcing initiatives.
- Ability to take a sourcing initiative from requirements definition and market analysis through supplier selection, negotiation, business case, contract execution, and implementation.
- Strong supplier negotiation and contract management experience.
- Experience partnering with engineering, operations, maintenance, or other technical stakeholders.
- Strong analytical, communication, and stakeholder-influencing skills.
Strong candidates may come from utilities, energy, oil & gas, data centers, electrical equipment manufacturers, industrial services, facility maintenance organizations, or strategic sourcing/procurement consulting firms.
Experience with organizations involved in electrical equipment and controls is particularly relevant.
