About the Role

We’re looking for a Purchasing Manager who doesn’t just place orders, they own outcomes.

This role sits at the center of operations, field execution, and vendor partnerships. You will lead a team, drive purchasing strategy, and ensure the right materials show up at the right time without excuses. You are someone who follows through, communicates early when something is off, and finds a way to solve it before it becomes a problem. You don’t wait for issues to elevate.

You get ahead of them. If you take pride in running a tight operation, building strong vendor relationships, and making sure nothing slips through the cracks, this is your seat.

What You’ll Do
  • Lead and develop the purchasing team, setting clear expectations and ensuring accountability across all buying activities
  • Own vendor sourcing, negotiation, and relationship management to ensure competitive pricing, reliability, and service quality
  • Oversee the full purchasing lifecycle including purchase orders, order tracking, issue resolution, and delivery coordination
  • Partner with operations, project managers, and leadership to forecast demand and align purchasing with project timelines
  • Manage inventory strategy including stock levels, forecasting, and optimization to avoid shortages and excess
  • Review contracts, pricing structures, and supplier performance to ensure vendors are meeting expectations and delivering value
  • Use purchasing data to identify trends, cost‑saving opportunities, and process improvements
  • Anticipate risks in the supply chain and take action before they impact field execution or customer outcomes
Requirements What We’re Looking For
  • 5+ years of experience in purchasing, procurement, or supply chain roles
  • Strong experience managing vendor relationships and negotiating pricing
  • Proven ability to support fast‑paced operations with multiple stakeholders
  • Experience with ERP systems (Microsoft Dynamics Business Central preferred)
  • Strong organizational, communication, and problem‑solving skills
  • Valid driver’s license required
Preferred Experience
  • Experience in service‑based or field operations environments
  • Background leading purchasing strategy or driving process improvements
  • Experience managing supplier performance at a high level
Our Benefits
  • Competitive Compensation
  • Remote or Hybrid Positions
  • Focus on Culture and Employee Engagement:
    Emphasizing work‑life balance.
  • Paid Time Off
  • Medical/Dental/Vision Plans:
    Starting the first of the month following hire date.
  • 401(k) + Company Match
  • Profit Sharing
  • Flexible Schedule
  • Life and Disability Insurance
  • Employee Discounts, Employee Referral Bonuses
