  • Build strong vendor and internal relationships.

  • Communicate updates, pricing, and expectations clearly.

  • Take ownership of responsibilities and drive results.

  • Contribute to team success with leadership potential.

  • 3+ years of experience in purchasing, estimating, or supply chain (residential homebuilding strongly preferred).

  • Bachelor’s degree in business, supply chain management, construction management or related field (or equivalent experience).

  • Proven negotiation skills and ability to build strong vendor relationships.

  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects and priorities.
