Remote Manufacturing and Procurement Buyer

MUST HAVE: PURCHASING AND/OR MATERIAL PLANNING EXPERIENCE IN A MANUFACTURING ENVIRONMENT ***

Our client is one of the fastest-growing power distribution manufacturers in the country — scaling from $60M to $200M in revenue this year, with $300–400M projected next. They are sold out through next year and actively turning down $20M projects because they don't yet have the team to execute. Born out of a $250M exit in precision sheet metal manufacturing, this privately held, debt‑free startup has grown into a vertically integrated power distribution manufacturer in under two years. Their 115,000 sq ft Marietta facility assembles PDUs, switchgear, RPPs, and transfer switches — with sister facilities handling sheet metal fabrication, in‑house transformer manufacturing, and on‑site testing. A 250,000 sq ft facility in West Virginia was just acquired to support continued expansion.

The supply chain team is being built to match that standard.

This is a dual‑function role sitting at the intersection of procurement and material planning. You'll be responsible for making sure the right components are on hand at the right time to keep an active ETO production operation running — coordinating daily with project management, production, engineering, and suppliers to prevent shortages before they become schedule impacts.

You’ll report to the Director of Supply Chain at hire, transitioning to the incoming Materials Manager as the team builds out. This is a high‑visibility seat in a small, fast‑moving operation where your work shows up on the shop floor the same day.

Purchase order execution and supplier follow‑up for electromechanical components across an active project portfolio

Material planning and demand forecasting within the ERP/MRP system

Daily shortage management — identifying at‑risk materials early and driving resolution

BOM and inventory data accuracy within the ERP system

Coordination with Buyer/Planner teammates, project managers, and production on material readiness

3–5+ years of combined buying and/or material planning experience in a manufacturing environment

ERP/MRP proficiency — SAP, Oracle, Epicor, Infor, or comparable

Solid understanding of MRP logic, demand planning, and procurement fundamentals

Power distribution, electrical switchgear, or critical power industry experience

This is a full‑time, on‑site role — remote and hybrid will not be considered. If you’re a sharp supply chain operator who wants to feel the impact of your work every day — let’s talk.
