Buyer (Manufacturing)

PAC Worldwide Corporation • Middletown, OH • 2h ago

Description Turn Purchase Orders Into Performance: Indirect Buyer Wanted Are you the kind of buyer who sees beyond the price tag? PAC Worldwide, a ProAmpac Company, is looking for a sharp, strategic Buyer - Indirect who understands that true value isn't just about finding the lowest cost-it's about total cost of ownership, on-time delivery, and relationships that drive operational excellence. Your Mission You'll be the critical link between our manufacturing operations and the suppliers who keep them running. From engineering projects to everyday MRO needs, you'll ensure the right materials and services arrive at the right time, at the right price. No pressure-just production lines counting on you. What You'll Actually Do

Source smarter, not just cheaper - Negotiate competitive pricing while optimizing total cost of ownership

Keep production moving - Manage PAC priorities and VMI programs to ensure zero disruptions

Be the problem solver - Research discrepancies, coordinate returns, and resolve issues before they become crises

Build your supplier network - Cultivate relationships that deliver value beyond the contract

Drive continuous improvement - Because "that's how we've always done it" isn't in your vocabulary

Master the ERP - Maintain flawless purchase order data and order schedules

What You Bring to the Table Required:

1-2 years of buying experience (you've been in the trenches)

Manufacturing environment background (you understand what's at stake)

High school diploma

Proficiency in Microsoft Office

Sharp analytical mind and exceptional organizational skills

Communication skills that work across all levels-from the shop floor to the C-suite

Preferred:

Bachelor's degree

Indirect and MRO purchasing experience

Microsoft D365 and e-procurement tools expertise

Why This Role Matters In manufacturing, delays cascade. Wrong orders compound. But great buying? That's invisible excellence-the kind that keeps operations humming while others wonder how you make it look easy. You'll work independently, manage competing priorities, and solve problems that don't come with a manual. If you thrive on variety, get satisfaction from negotiating win-win deals, and take pride in being the reliable force behind production success, we should talk. The Details

Primarily desk-based with occasional warehouse/production floor visits

Physical requirements: Occasional lifting up to 40 lbs

Direct impact on manufacturing operations and project success
