Watch the Bottom Line: Track project budgets, risks, and margins while supporting milestone invoicing.
Drive Improvement: Help standardize PM processes and KPIs to build a more scalable operation.
What You’ll Need
Manufacturing Roots: Proven project management experience specifically within a manufacturing or "engineered-to-order" environment.

Growth: Join a quality-focused organization that is actively building more structure and scalable processes.
Visibility: Work closely with new leadership in a high-visibility role where your problem-solving skills will be noticed.

This is a high-impact, hands-on leadership role for someone who thrives at the intersection of strategy and execution.
What You'll Do
You'll build the systems, lead the team, and drive the results. That means developing inventory planning strategies (min/max, safety stock, lead times), ensuring materials are always available to keep production running, and managing supplier relationships for performance, cost, and reliability. You'll lead cost reduction and consolidation initiatives, optimize ERP-driven workflows, and grow a small procurement team around you.
What You Bring
Solid background in manufacturing procurement or supply chain
Strong ERP/MRP experience — NetSuite, SAP, or similar
Proven track record in inventory optimization and supplier negotiations
Experience in engineered or custom manufacturing is a plus
Most importantly: you've built procurement systems, not just used them
Why This Role
This isn't a "maintain and report" position. You'll have real ownership, real resources, and a leadership team that wants procurement to be a competitive advantage. If you're ready to put your fingerprints on something meaningful, this is your opportunity.
