We’re looking for a local hands-on MRO Buyer to support our maintenance and operations teams by ensuring timely procurement of critical parts, tools, and supplies. This is a tactical, fast-paced role focused on day-to-day purchasing, inventory replenishment, and vendor coordination—not strategic sourcing or high-level supply chain planning.

If you thrive in environments where you’re the go-to person for keeping operations running smoothly, this role is for you.

What You’ll Do

+ Purchase maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) supplies including tools, parts, PPE, and facility-related items.

+ Work closely with maintenance technicians and facilities teams to understand needs and source appropriate materials.

+ Monitor inventory levels and reorder stock to avoid downtime.

+ Maintain vendor relationships and negotiate pricing for frequently purchased items.

+ Track orders, deliveries, and resolve any supply issues quickly.

+ Use CMMS or ERP systems to manage purchase orders and inventory records.

What You Bring

+ Experience in MRO purchasing, indirect procurement, or maintenance support.

+ Familiarity with industrial supplies, tools, and facility equipment.

+ Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.

+ Ability to work independently and prioritize urgent needs.

+ Experience with systems like SAP, Maximo, or similar CMMS/ERP platforms is a plus.

+ Background in maintenance, warehouse coordination, or facilities support is highly valued.

Why Join Us?

+ Be a key player in keeping our operations running efficiently.

+ Work in a collaborative environment where your input matters.

+ Competitive pay, benefits, and opportunities for growth.

A Day in the Life

You’ll start your day reviewing inventory levels and checking in with the maintenance team. You’ll place orders for replacement parts, follow up with vendors, and make sure deliveries are on track. When a machine goes down, you’ll be the one who knows exactly where to get the part—fast.
