Develop and maintain strong relationships with steel mills, distributors, and suppliers.
Obtain and evaluate quotes while negotiating pricing, lead times, and delivery schedules.

Monitor inventory levels and forecast material requirements to prevent shortages or production delays.
Work closely with production, planning, engineering, and inventory teams to meet manufacturing demands.
Review material certifications and ensure purchased materials meet required specifications.
Track supplier performance, resolve delivery or quality issues, and identify alternate sourcing options when necessary.
Monitor steel market trends, pricing fluctuations, and supply chain conditions to support purchasing decisions.
Maintain accurate purchasing records and documentation within the company's ERP/MRP system.
Identify cost-saving opportunities while maintaining quality and supplier reliability.

Required Qualifications

Minimum of 3-5 years of purchasing or procurement experience within a manufacturing environment.
Strong knowledge of steel products, grades, material specifications, and manufacturing processes.
Experience negotiating pricing, contracts, and supplier agreements.
Proficiency with ERP/MRP systems and Microsoft Office, particularly Excel.
Strong understanding of inventory management and production planning.
Excellent organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills.
Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience purchasing raw materials for machining, fabrication, or metal manufacturing operations.
Knowledge of supply chain management and vendor development.
APICS, CPM, CPSM, or related purchasing certifications are a plus.

What We're Looking For

Proven experience purchasing steel for manufacturing operations.
Strong negotiation and supplier relationship management skills.
Detail-oriented with excellent organizational abilities.
Ability to work independently while collaborating across multiple departments.
A proactive professional who can anticipate material needs and keep production running efficiently.

This is a first-shift opportunity with competitive pay based on experience. We are seeking a highly experienced purchasing professional with a strong background in steel procurement who can make an immediate impact.
