Industrial Manufacturing Purchasing Analyst / Buyer - $60K-$90K
Job Description
Job Description
We are only interested in highly experienced purchasing professionals with a strong work history in manufacturing — preferably industrial manufacturing.
If your background is primarily healthcare, corporate office purchasing, finance, retail or non-manufacturing procurement, this is not the right fit.
We need someone who has personally handled the full purchasing cycle in a plant or production environment, including:
- Purchase requisitions and purchase orders
- Raw materials, MRO parts, production supplies or industrial equipment
- Supplier sourcing, quote comparison and negotiations
- Open PO follow-up and expediting
- Inventory/material availability
- Supplier issues, late deliveries and discrepancies
- Invoice/PO/receiving reconciliation
- ERP/MRP purchasing systems
- Working directly with production, warehouse, receiving and accounting
Strong preference for candidates from industrial manufacturing, metal fabrication, machinery, automotive, aerospace, plastics, packaging or similar production environments.
This is not a training role. We are looking for someone who can step in with real hands-on purchasing experience and understand the impact purchasing has on production.
