In manufacturing, sourcing decisions directly influence cost, inventory, production flow, supplier performance, and customer expectations. This role connects the data behind procurement activity to the decisions that keep operations running smoothly.
If you’re an analyst who wants your work to influence real outcomes—not just reports—this role offers the opportunity to make a measurable impact.
This role primarily operates in a professional office environment with limited exposure to manufacturing areas. When entering manufacturing areas, required personal protective equipment may include hearing protection, safety shoes, and vision protection.
Employees may occasionally be exposed to non‑toxic nuisance smells from chemicals, airborne dust, moving mechanical parts, high noise levels, and hot or humid conditions in manufacturing areas.
This role routinely uses standard office equipment such as computers, phones, photocopiers, filing cabinets, and fax machines. The employee is regularly required to stand, walk, use hands and fingers to type or handle materials, reach with hands and arms, talk, and hear. Occasional lifting or moving of up to 10 pounds may be required.
