** Purchasing Agent / Buyer**

Louisville, KY 40214

We build products and relationships that last a lifetime No really, thats what we do. We are a successful family business with a long-term record of steady growth, and we are determined to accelerate our trajectory. Our diverse team members who speak 22 languages are passionate about their company and their co-workers. Check out our website at **.**

Covid-19 disrupted our supply chain and we need help to ensure our Production team has what they need when they need it. This role touches all parts of our organization and will play an integral part in the broader Manufacturing organization.

**We Are Not:**

* Fancy as manufacturers we believe beautiful facilities arent required to make quality products or retain the best team.

* High Tech - we incorporate technology into our products and processes where appropriate, but it doesnt drive us.

* Transactional - we have long term relationships with our team members and most valuable customers.

* Satisfied - we celebrate achievement, then set our sights on new goals.

**What were looking for:**

* Passion for winning. Achieving goals and continuous improvement drive you. You live by metrics.

* Experience purchasing for a manufacturer or complex entity with multiple commodity types; preferably with purchasing raw steel and aluminum.

* You want exposure to senior company leaders and to have your voice heard on strategy.

* An analyst at heart. You enjoy cleaning data, extracting insights, looking for patterns, and prioritizing areas for savings projects.

* Proven ability to deliver savings from purchased goods.

* Lots of patience and high emotional intelligence. The ability and desire to work with people who will challenge you.

* A hard worker. There is more opportunity in our organization than you can shake a stick at, but it will require dedication. This is not a 9 to 5 job.

* You love to improve processes. You establish new policy and see it through.

* Proficient with Microsoft Office, especially Excel with diverse experience with commodities management. Experience with ERP systems highly preferred. You can use these tools in place of buttoned-up ERP systems that provide perfect, cleaned data like magic.

* Solid Experience. Preferred at least 2+ years experience in a similar role.

* The right education. Bachelors Degree in supply chain, finance, business or related is nice, but definitely not required. Or equal experience will work for our Buying Team.

**Next Steps:**
