Are you a Commodity Buyer who knows steel, aluminum, metals, and raw materials and wants more than a transactional purchasing role?

We're looking for a Senior Commodity Buyer who will take ownership of key commodities and play a direct role in sourcing strategy, supplier negotiations, cost reduction, and supply continuity.

This is an opportunity to work with domestic and international suppliers, negotiate high-value agreements, monitor commodity markets, navigate tariffs and changing material costs, and make sourcing decisions that directly impact the business.

If you enjoy owning your commodities, negotiating with suppliers, finding better sourcing opportunities, and staying ahead of supply chain risks, this could be the right next step for you.

What's in it for you?

  • $85,000 – $90,000 salary
  • Permanent, full-time opportunity with long-term growth
  • Own and manage a strategic commodity portfolio
  • Work with steel, aluminum, metals, glass, and other direct materials
  • Lead sourcing and negotiation initiatives with North American and international suppliers
  • Drive measurable cost savings and supplier performance improvements
  • Partner with Engineering, Production, Planning, Quality, and Operations
  • Have a direct voice in purchasing and sourcing decisions

What you'll be doing:

  • Own the sourcing strategy for assigned commodities, including steel, aluminum, metals, glass, and other direct materials
  • Identify, qualify, and develop new domestic and international suppliers
  • Lead RFQs, supplier negotiations, contract negotiations, and strategic sourcing initiatives
  • Negotiate pricing, payment terms, lead times, freight, and long-term supply agreements
  • Monitor commodity pricing, market trends, tariffs, and global supply risks
  • Develop strategies to mitigate cost increases, tariffs, supply disruptions, and long lead times
  • Analyze supplier quotes, market pricing, and total landed costs to identify opportunities for savings
  • Build and maintain strong strategic supplier relationships
  • Track supplier performance across cost, quality, delivery, and service
  • Partner with Engineering, Production, Planning, and Quality to ensure uninterrupted material supply
  • Maintain accurate purchasing, inventory, and cost information using ERP systems and advanced Excel

What we're looking for:

  • 5–7+ years of commodity buying / strategic sourcing experience in manufacturing
  • Hands-on purchasing experience with steel, aluminum, metals, and/or glass is required
  • Proven experience owning commodities and developing sourcing strategies
  • Experience managing domestic and international suppliers
  • Strong background in supplier negotiations, RFQs, contracts, and cost reduction
  • Experience navigating tariffs, cross-border sourcing, and changing commodity costs
  • Strong understanding of commodity markets, pricing, and supplier dynamics
  • Advanced Excel skills, including Pivot Tables, VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, formulas, reporting, and data analysis
  • ERP/MRP experience such as SAP, JD Edwards, Oracle, or similar
  • Strong analytical, negotiation, communication, and problem-solving skills
