Buyer Purchasing Agent

Aegis Worldwide

Job Description

Job Description

Aegis is seeking a Buyer & Purchasing Agent to join our client's organization in Carol Stream, IL. This position is a 6 month contract to hire position. The ideal candidate has the following skills and experience -

Must Haves

  • Previous purchasing, procurement, buyer, or supply-chain experience in a manufacturing, machinery, industrial, fabrication, packaging, or similar environment
  • Demonstrated experience managing suppliers and vendor relationships, including negotiating pricing, payment terms, credit arrangements, delivery schedules, and order releases
  • Comfortable dealing directly with supplier owners, sales representatives, credit managers, and accounting departments
  • Strong understanding of the relationship between purchasing, accounts payable, cash flow, inventory, and production requirements
  • Strong negotiation, problem-solving, organizational, and follow-up skills; ability to work with urgency and resolve issues independently

Nice to Have

  • Experience working within a privately held or family-owned business environment (strongly preferred per the hiring manager)
  • History of navigating difficult vendor conversations — credit holds, partial-payment arrangements, temporary credit-limit increases — without damaging the relationship
  • Experience developing backup/alternative supplier networks proactively, not just reactively
