  • Monitor metrics related to cost, delivery, and quality performance.
  • Contribute to dashboards and presentations summarizing purchasing performance.
  • 4. Continuous Improvement & Projects

  • Lead at least one project focused on improving a purchasing or supply chain process (e.g., cost reduction, supplier scorecarding, inventory control, or system enhancement).
  • Identify opportunities for process efficiency and share recommendations with the team.
  • Support cross-functional collaboration with engineering, manufacturing, and finance to resolve material and sourcing challenges.
  • What We Are Looking For (Experience, Knowledge, Skills, Abilities, Education)

    We each bring something to the table, and we are looking for someone who has :

  • Strong time management, organization, and attention to detail.
  • Problem-solving mindset and willingness to learn new tools and concepts.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills; collaboration in a team setting.
  • Preferred Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities

  • Experience with business systems (e.g., ERP / CRM / CPQ) or analytics tools (e.g., Excel, Power BI) is a plus.
  • Education & Certifications

  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, Operations, Industrial Engineering, or related field.
  • Travel & Working Environment

  • Fully on-site
  • Office-based with occasional exposure to plant / manufacturing areas.
