We are looking for an experienced Sr. Buyer/MRO to support procurement activities in Greenville, South Carolina. This role is suited for a sourcing-focused detail-oriented individual who can identify suppliers with relevant experience, secure favorable commercial terms, and address specialized purchasing needs in a complex maintenance environment. The ideal candidate brings strong judgment, supplier management expertise, and hands-on experience working across a broad range of parts, materials, and services.

  • Identify and assess new suppliers for maintenance, repair, and operations needs, with an emphasis on hard-to-source and non-routine items.
  • Negotiate pricing, lead times, service expectations, and contract terms to improve value and supply reliability.
  • Manage vendor relationships to support consistent performance, responsiveness, and long-term procurement effectiveness.
  • Source specialized equipment, replacement parts, materials, and external services required to keep maintenance operations running efficiently.
  • Partner with internal stakeholders to understand technical requirements and develop practical purchasing solutions for unique requests.
  • Process purchase activities within SAP, including supplier setup, requisition review, order execution, and inventory-related coordination.
  • Monitor supplier delivery, quality, and issue resolution to reduce disruptions and maintain operational continuity.
