This role holds purchasing responsibility for AVIRE's US operations and is the single point of accountability for material availability and supplier performance at both US locations: Sussex, Wisconsin and Marlboro, New Jersey.

Travel between and on-site support of both locations may be expected as business needs require.

What you will do:

  • Utilize and update Material Group / Commodity strategies aligned with global supply chain and manufacturing objectives.
  • Plan, procure, and ensure uninterrupted material availability for production and service operations through short‑ and long‑term MRP.
  • Maintain and optimize D365 planning parameters and master data to ensure accurate forecasting, inventory levels, and data integrity across BOMs and material masters.
  • Monitor supply risks, capacity constraints, and obsolescence, and raise issues to enable mitigation plans to protect production and service continuity.
  • Understand total landed cost for assigned commodities, including price, logistics, duties, and inventory carrying costs, and drive cost‑reduction initiatives.
  • Prepare, analyze, and act on operational and planning reports including inventory health, backorders, pricing, and supplier performance.
  • Administer and monitor contracts, NDAs, and framework agreements ongoing and as part of vendor onboarding.
  • Coordinate logistics activities with internal teams and suppliers to ensure on‑time delivery and resolution of shipment deviations.
  • Resolve non‑conforming materials (NCR), supplier complaints, and corrective actions in cooperation with Quality and cross‑functional teams.
  • Collaborate closely with Accounts Payable to resolve invoice discrepancies, pricing issues, and payment deviations.
  • Notify of End‑of‑Life (EOL) and End‑of‑Support (EOS) strategies and execute on last‑time buys.
  • Raise escalations and support cross‑functional stakeholders without direct reporting authority.
  • Actively participate in continuous improvement initiatives and apply structured problem‑solving methodologies to improve processes and outcomes.
  • Provide operational backup, support inventory counts, and ensure business continuity during absences.

  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
