About the Role
We are partnering with an established metal fabrication and manufacturing company to hire a Director of Supply Chain – Procurement & Materials. Our client designs and builds engineered products across multiple facilities and is seeking a strategic leader to own end-to-end supply chain performance.
The Director of Supply Chain provides strategic leadership and operational oversight for all supply chain functions, including procurement, planning, inventory management, warehousing, and supplier performance. This role ensures the right materials are in the right place at the right time—optimizing cost, quality, delivery, and working capital to support company growth and operational excellence. Job Description
As Director of Supply Chain, you will lead, manage, and hold your team accountable while overseeing procurement, supplier management, planning, inventory, outsourcing, and production support. You will build strategic supplier partnerships and drive continuous improvement across the materials organization.
In this role, you will:
  • Develop and execute a comprehensive supply chain strategy aligned with company growth objectives.
  • Oversee materials functions including procurement, sourcing strategy, contract negotiations, and supplier selection.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives that enhance service levels, reduce total landed cost, and improve inventory turns.
  • Identify and mitigate supply chain risks to ensure business continuity.
  • Build strategic supplier partnerships focused on on-time delivery, quality, and best total cost.
  • Monitor departmental KPIs and response processes.
  • Ensure compliance with contractual, regulatory, and ethical standards.
  • Optimize demand planning, forecasting accuracy, and inventory control processes.
  • Establish inventory targets that support customer service while minimizing excess and obsolete inventory.
  • Improve material flow and replenishment strategies across facilities.
  • Manage inbound freight strategies to optimize service and cost.
  • Develop and manage departmental budgets.
  • Drive data-based decision making using ERP and analytics tools.
Work Environment: While performing the duties of this job, the employee is frequently required to sit/stand, talk or hear, and use hands to finger, handle, or touch objects or controls. The employee is regularly required to stand and walk short distances and may occasionally stoop, bend, or reach above the shoulders. While on the production floor, all employees are required to wear company-provided personal protective equipment (PPE). The physical demands described here are representative of those that must be met to successfully perform the essential functions of this job. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform these functions. Qualifications
Required Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain, Engineering, Business Operations, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • Proven experience in a leadership role overseeing supply chain functions.
  • Demonstrated ability to dig into details and build processes with a sense of urgency.
  • In-depth knowledge of ERP systems and data workflows.
  • High-level negotiating skills.
  • Strong strategic thinking and problem-solving skills, with a demonstrated ability to develop and execute operational strategies.
  • Excellent leadership and team management capabilities, fostering a collaborative, results-driven environment.
  • Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to interact effectively with stakeholders at all levels.
  • Experience converting "make" parts to "purchased" and leveraging outsourcing capabilities in support of production needs.
  • Demonstrated experience in process improvement, operational efficiency, and implementing best practices.
  • Strong analytical, data-driven mindset, proficient in using metrics to drive decision-making.
  • Proven track record of managing complex projects and delivering high-quality results within budget and timeline constraints.
  • Ability to adapt to a fast-paced, evolving environment while balancing multiple priorities effectively.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Leadership experience within a manufacturing organization.
  • Experience working with metal fabrication.
Benefits
Our client offers a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your health, financial security, and work-life balance. Employees can choose from two medical plan options—each with company HSA contributions—along with dental and vision insurance, and Health and Flexible Spending Accounts (HSA/FSA) to help manage medical and dependent care expenses. The company also provides company-paid basic life, AD&D, and short- and long-term disability insurance, with additional voluntary benefits available, including optional life insurance, legal and ID protection, and accident and critical illness coverage. To support your financial future, the company offers a 401(k) with a 4% match and immediate vesting, as well as performance-based incentive pay; this role is eligible for the company's Short-Term Incentive Plan (STIP), a financial performance–based bonus program with payouts determined by operational results and distributed in the first quarter of the following year. Rounding out the package, employees enjoy unlimited Paid Time Off (PTO) plus paid holidays, tuition reimbursement of up to $5,250 per year for job-related education, a free and confidential Employee Assistance Program (EAP), onsite training opportunities—including leadership, welding, and language courses—and a uniform subsidy for eligible roles.
