Job Description

Help keep complex manufacturing operations moving. As a Procurement Sourcing Specialist, you'll support multiple plants, including locations outside North America, while reporting to the North America Segment Procurement Lead for Structural Castings and IGT. You'll combine sourcing expertise with project management to strengthen supply continuity, deliver cost savings, improve processes, and reduce supplier risk.

What you'll do

Develop and manage contracts

  • Review plant needs and statements of work to identify qualified suppliers and contractors.
  • Draft, review, and negotiate service agreements and purchase orders, ensuring they clearly capture scope, deliverables, performance measures, pricing, schedules, and terms.
  • Work with Legal, Finance, and other partners to complete required contract reviews before agreements are issued.
  • Track supplier performance against contract requirements and address risks as they arise.

Lead procurement projects

  • Manage or support sourcing for goods, services, outplant work, and capital expenditures (CAPEX), as well as cost-reduction efforts, supplier growth initiatives, and supplier onboarding.
  • Partner with cross-functional teams to set project timelines, manage deliverables, and develop action plans when work is at risk of delay.

Improve processes and support plants

  • Find opportunities to simplify procurement processes across the segment, reduce waste and costs, and maintain compliance with procurement and financial procedures.
  • Help plants resolve day-to-day procurement challenges and promote consistent execution across sites.
  • When needed, provide hands-on backup support with requests for quotation (RFQs), purchase orders, invoice reconciliation, and related administrative work.

What you'll bring

Required

  • A bachelor's degree from an accredited institution and at least three years of experience in procurement or procurement-related contract development and management; or at least five years of relevant experience in place of a degree.
  • At least one year of experience using Oracle or a comparable enterprise business system.
  • Willingness to travel up to 25% of the time.
  • Legal authorization to work in the United States. Employment eligibility will be verified at hire; visa sponsorship is not available.
  • Ability to lawfully access export-controlled items, as required for the role. Any offer of employment is contingent on that access.

Preferred

  • Experience in a manufacturing environment.
  • Experience managing CAPEX.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and Word.
  • Willingness to make frequent visits to plant shop floors to understand operations firsthand.
  • A customer-focused approach.
  • Strong analytical skills, including the ability to develop metrics and reports from varied data sets.
