Join a leading manufacturer of mobile equipment for the automotive industry—known for building durable, high-value products that work as hard as our customers do. We are located in northwest Iowa.
Are you a strategic supply chain professional who thrives in a fast-paced manufacturing environment? We’re looking for a Purchasing Manager to lead sourcing, inventory, materials planning, and supplier relationships while keeping production running smoothly and efficiently.
In this role, you’ll drive purchasing strategy, negotiate with suppliers, manage inventory levels, support ERP/MRP process improvements, and lead a team focused on continuous improvement.

What we’re looking for:
- 5–7 years of purchasing/buyer experience in manufacturing
- Strong background in supplier negotiations, inventory control, and materials planning
- Experience with ERP systems and Microsoft Office
- Leadership skills with a hands-on, problem-solving mindset
- Bachelor's or AA degree preferred but willing to accept experience in place of degree
This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to make a visible impact on operations, cost savings, and supply chain performance.
