Search Jobs: Results: Purchasing - SENIOR BUYER or COMMODITY MANAGER

This multi-billion dollar automotive supplier is looking for Purchasing professionals seeking to challenge themselves.  Two levels of opportunity are available depending on experience: SENIOR BUYER or COMMODITY MANAGER.  Both roles will serve at the strategic level in defining the strategy for a specific commodity.  You will have oversight to multiple facilities across North America, and across multiple business units/business platforms...wherever applicable to your commodity.
 
You must enjoy and thrive on focusing on New Product Development and all related issues including VA/VE, Cost Modeling, Supplier Development, etc.  These roles are fairly technical in nature, so while a technical degree might be preferred...it is not mandatory.  What IS mandatory is the technical aptitude to your commodity.  And commodities involved are: BEARINGS, CASTINGS, FORGINGS, STEEL and MACHINED PARTS.  Positions will be located in MICHIGAN and OHIO.
 
You must be a self-starter, self-motivated and driven.  You must be curious and thorough in your approach to problem solving.  Your role will have a Project Management aspect that will provide diversity in activity from one day to the next.
 
So, to be considered...you've gotta have the following:
  1. At least a Bachelor's Degree...
  2. An experience range of from 5 years to 15 years... 
  3. Commodity experience with any of the aforementioned commodities: BEARINGS, CASTINGS, FORGINGS, STEEL or MACHINED PARTS is preferred, but I could consider PLASTICS if all else is equal : )
