Job description

The Purchasing Coordinator- Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing (MEP) plays an important role at Eastcut. In this role, you will be the person that the plumbing and mechanical teams count on to source materials, place orders, and make sure everything shows up when and where it's needed. You'll be working closely with the plumbing, electrical, and mechanical supervisors along with our engineering group. A good part of your week is spent out on the floor with the trades, who are essentially your customers, and making sure what you're buying lines up with what they need to keep building. On-site is the default, since staying close to the trades and the build is a big part of doing this well.

RESPONSIBILITIES

· Purchase plumbing and mechanical materials for our modular projects, from placing orders through to getting them delivered.

· Perform material take-offs for plumbing and mechanical scopes, or coordinate outsourcing them where needed, so orders are built on accurate quantities.

· Track orders and deliveries from purchase order to arrival on the floor and stay ahead of anything that could hold up a build.

· Keep purchasing, delivery, and materials information current in Acumatica and Procore.

· Grow your knowledge on the mechanical side over time, building on an already strong plumbing background.

· Collaborating with the Purchasing Manager, negotiate in confidence with vendors, maintaining discretion and ensuring integrity

REQUIREMENTS

· A commercial or business head for buying, and comfortable dealing with suppliers and keeping good relationships with them.

· Strong plumbing knowledge, and a genuine interest in learning the mechanical side.

· Organized and on top of the details, since a lot of small deliveries must land in the right order.

· Comfortable spending time out on the floor with the trades and treating them like customers.

· Able to work in systems like Acumatica and Procore or pick them up quickly.

· Strong communication and interpersonal skills, a customer service focus, and a professional demeanor

· Degree or Diploma in Business, Supply Chain, or Construction Management, or significant relevant experience is an asset.

SALARY

Salary dependent on experience. Medical and dental benefits, RRSP matching, paid volunteer time, vacation time, paid time off and other benefits. All applications are strictly confidential.
