Sourcing Analyst responsible for executing sourcing strategies for raw materials at USG Corporation. Collaborates with stakeholders across operations in the United States and Canada to ensure reliable supply and competitive costs.
About the role
- Procurement Manager overseeing sourcing, purchasing, and supply chain coordination in construction and manufacturing. Leading supplier negotiations and ensuring timely material delivery for projects.
Responsibilities
- Develop and execute procurement strategies aligned with Permacorp’s manufacturing and construction project needs, with a focus on cost efficiency, quality, and timely delivery.
- Identify, evaluate, and select suppliers, subcontractors, and vendors — including raw-material providers, equipment vendors, and service contractors — that meet company standards for quality, reliability, and price.
- Lead contract negotiations and manage supplier agreements, leveraging purchasing power to secure favorable terms (price, payment terms, delivery schedules, warranties, etc.).
- Maintain accurate procurement records and data: track purchase orders, delivery schedules, supplier performance, and cost data.
- Support data entry, reporting, and documentation to ensure transparency and traceability across projects.
- Collaborate closely with internal teams — project management, manufacturing/production, construction scheduling, finance, and logistics — to align procurement activities with project timelines and avoid delays.
- Forecast material and service needs based on upcoming project schedules, anticipate supply-chain risks, and proactively manage inventory or ordering cycles to avoid shortages or over-stock.
- Monitor and evaluate supplier performance, lead-times, delivery compliance, and quality; escalate issues, and work with suppliers to implement corrective actions or alternate sourcing when needed.
- Contribute to continuous improvement of procurement processes: implement best practices, review and optimize vendor selection and ordering workflows, and document standard operating procedures (SOPs) for procurement.
- Support budgeting and cost-control efforts — ensuring procurement stays within project budgets, and that cost savings or efficiencies are captured and reported.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Supply Chain Management, Construction Management, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent relevant experience).
- Proven experience (ideally 3–5+ years) in procurement, supply chain, or purchasing roles — preferably within manufacturing, construction, or industrial operations.
- Strong negotiation skills, vendor management, and contract-management experience.
- Excellent organizational skills, with attention to detail and strong data-entry / documentation abilities.
- Experience coordinating procurement with manufacturing or construction project timelines — including understanding of lead-times, delivery schedules, and the impact of materials/services on project progress.
- Good analytical and cost-control mindset — ability to assess supplier proposals, compare options, and recommend cost-effective solutions that meet quality and scheduling needs.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills — ability to work cross-functionally with project managers, production teams, logistics, finance, and suppliers.
- Ability to manage multiple procurement projects simultaneously, prioritize tasks, and respond proactively to changes or supply-chain disruptions.
- Familiarity with procurement software or tools (e.g., ERP, purchasing databases, vendor management systems) is a plus.
- Experience in construction-related procurement or project-based sourcing is preferred.
- Demonstrated success in reducing procurement costs while maintaining or improving supply quality and delivery performance.
- Certifications in supply chain/procurement (e.g., from recognized supply-chain certification bodies) are a plus.
