• Partner with site purchasing, planning, operations, quality, engineering, finance, and other stakeholders to gather requirements and implement sourcing initiatives.
• Communicate recommendations to diverse audiences and influence stakeholders to adopt standardized suppliers, processes, terms, and specifications where appropriate.
• Prepare requests for information, quotations, and proposals; analyze supplier responses; and support fact-based supplier selection decisions.
• Support supplier negotiations by developing cost models, price comparisons, demand profiles, and total-cost-of-ownership analyses.
• Track cost savings, cost avoidance, payment-term improvements, supplier consolidation, and other procurement value metrics in accordance with company standards.
• Monitor supplier delivery, quality, responsiveness, capacity, and financial or operational risk; coordinate corrective actions and escalations as needed.
• Maintain accurate supplier, contract, pricing, and item data in procurement and ERP systems.
• Identify opportunities to improve purchasing controls, standard work, data quality, and procurement processes across locations.
• Support supplier business reviews and prepare clear meeting materials, performance summaries, action logs, and follow-up communications.
• Balance multiple priorities, meet deadlines, and provide timely updates in a remote work environment. Travel periodically to Biomerics locations and supplier sites as business needs require.
• Perform other related duties and responsibilities as required or assigned.

• Three or more years of purchasing, procurement, and/or category management experience. Experience sourcing maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO), packaging, and packaging supplies.
• Demonstrated ability to manage vendor or sourcing projects across multiple locations and coordinate cross-functional stakeholders.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present complex analysis clearly and influence without direct authority.
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, including the ability to translate data into practical recommendations and measurable actions.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel, including pivot tables, lookups, formulas, data validation, and analysis of large data sets.
• Experience with spend analysis, cost modeling, supplier performance metrics, savings tracking, and business-case development.
