Support engineering change requests by coordinating supplier updates and material transitions.

Compliance & Reporting

Ensure purchasing activities comply with company policies and procedures.
Maintain accurate procurement records, supplier documentation, and purchasing data within the ERP system.
Prepare reports on supplier performance, inventory levels, purchasing trends, and cost savings.
Support internal audits and supplier reviews as required.

Post-secondary education in Supply Chain Management, Business, Procurement, or a related field is considered an asset.
3+ years of purchasing or procurement experience within a manufacturing, industrial, fabrication, or production environment.
Experience purchasing raw materials, fabricated components, industrial products, or production-related goods.
Strong negotiation, supplier management, and relationship-building skills.
