Construction Purchaser

Overview

As our Purchaser, you’ll manage the full lifecycle of material procurement—from sourcing and pricing through delivery and invoicing. You’ll issue purchase orders, evaluate quotes, track pricing and expiration dates, and coordinate closely with vendors and the field to ensure jobs stay on track.

You’ll also play a key role in handling specialized materials such as metal deck and fireproofing, coordinating production schedules, trucking, and deliveries. When issues come up—pricing discrepancies, shortages, or delivery challenges—you’ll be the one who steps in, communicates clearly, and gets them resolved.

Beyond purchasing, you’ll support invoicing and documentation through COINS workflows, maintain accurate shipping and receiving records, and assist with LEED and compliance documentation when required. Your work ensures not just that materials arrive, but that everything behind the scenes is accurate, compliant, and well organized.
