Interim Procurement Manager (Contract Role)

Our client is seeking an experienced Procurement Manager on a short-term contract basis to provide coverage during a medical leave of absence. This role will require a hands-on, process-driven professional who can quickly assess the current state of procurement, ensure continuity of supply, and make improvements that will set up the returning Procurement Manager for success.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Ensure consistent supply to production while maintaining cost and quality standards.
  • Assess existing procurement processes, identify gaps, and implement practical improvements.
  • Document procurement policies, procedures, and workflows to establish clear and sustainable practices.
  • Collaborate with production, quality, finance, and logistics to align procurement with business needs.
  • Conduct vendor management, sourcing, and contract negotiations with food industry suppliers.
  • Maintain accurate records of orders, forecasts, and vendor performance.
  • Support demand planning and forecasting primarily through Excel, with integration into our ERP system (Canopy).
  • Provide a structured transition back to the returning Procurement Manager, including training and handoff on updated processes.

Qualifications:

  • Proven experience as a Procurement Manager (or equivalent role) in the food manufacturing industry, preferably with protein-based products.
  • Strong knowledge of procurement best practices, vendor management, and supply chain operations.
  • Advanced Excel skills (forecasting, reporting, analysis); familiarity with Canopy ERP a plus.
  • Strong documentation and process-building experience.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to train and hand off effectively.
  • Problem-solving mindset with the ability to deliver immediate impact in a fast-moving environment.

Contract Details:

  • Short-term contract position covering a leave of absence.
  • Expected to run until the permanent Procurement Manager returns, with emphasis on process stabilization and continuity.
