Our client in White River Junction, VT is seeking a full time Supply Chain Manager for an onsite role 5 days a week.

POSITION SUMMARY
 seeking a Supply Chain Manager to lead and evolve our sourcing, purchasing, and materials functions. This role is responsible for developing and executing supply chain strategies, managing procurement operations, inventory control, and shipping/receiving activities across all business units.
Success in this role requires a hands-on leader with demonstrated experience identifying and implementing change in a low-volume, high-mix, highly technical manufacturing environment. Delegation may be limited at times, and direct engagement is expected—particularly in supplier development, inventory optimization, and process improvement. 
PRINCIPAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Develop and implement sourcing strategies to reduce inherent supply chain risks, with a strong hands-on focus on identifying, researching, qualifying, and onboarding new suppliers in compliance with AS9100 requirements.
  • Define, implement, and report on supply chain performance metrics and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs); continuously evaluate internal and external factors impacting supply performance.
  • Monitor supplier quality, delivery, and capacity performance; collaborate cross-functionally to assess supplier capabilities and qualify new sources as needed.
  • Analyze current inventory levels, material flows, and procedures; develop and maintain accurate material and supply inventories to optimize production efficiency. This responsibility is expected to be executed directly rather than delegated.
  • Develop, implement, and enforce policies and processes that improve overall supply chain efficiency while maintaining quality and compliance standards.
  • Identify and manage shipping and transportation partners to ensure reliable, timely, and cost-effective logistics solutions.
  • Evaluate material handling and shipping/receiving staffing needs; implement improvements to loading, unloading, movement, and storage of materials.
  • Lead negotiations with suppliers, vendors, and logistics providers on pricing, terms, and delivery commitments.
  • Serve as an advisory member of the product development team, managing material-related deliverables within the ECN process to ensure smooth material availability and production flow.
  • Perform other related duties as assigned.
SUPERVISORY RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Provide leadership and direction for all procurement-related activities.
  • Oversee daily workflow and scheduling for inventory control and shipping/receiving functions.
  • Conduct timely and constructive performance evaluations.
  • Address and resolve employee performance issues in accordance with company policies.
REQUIRED SKILLS AND ABILITIES
  • Strong working knowledge of ERP and MRP systems.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Proven interpersonal and negotiation skills, with the ability to build effective relationships with suppliers, logistics partners, and internal stakeholders.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite or similar business software.
EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Supply Chain, Engineering, or a related field required; Master’s degree preferred.
  • Minimum of three years of supervisory or managerial experience within a highly technical or manufacturing-focused organization required.
  • Engineering degree is helpful but not required.
  • APICS CPIM certification preferred;  supports and funds CPIM certification within the first year of employment.
