- Support material planning and purchasing requirements within a high-mix, low-volume manufacturing environment
- Mitigate production risks through proactive supplier management and inventory planning
- Monitor long lead-time materials and forecast-driven purchasing activities
What We're Looking For
Experience
- 5+ years of progressive purchasing, procurement, or supply chain experience within manufacturing
