Purchasing Jobs in New York

A Purchasing Manager for the construction industry is responsible for buying goods, materials, and services on behalf of the company to ensure necessary operations continue smoothly. This includes sourcing new suppliers, negotiating contracts, tracking orders, and maintaining vendor relationships. They play a critical role in procurement and supply chain operations, ensuring the company gets value for money, quality, timely delivery, and risk mitigation in its dealings with suppliers. They have comprehensive knowledge of the construction process and materials, and a deep understanding of supply chain management.

Prior to becoming a Purchasing Manager, an individual might serve as a Purchasing Agent or Procurement Specialist, roles that would provide valuable experience in vendor negotiations, contract management, and cost analysis.

A certification, such as a Certified Purchasing Professional (CPP) or a Certified Professional in Supply Management (CPSM), can demonstrate a high level of professionalism and proficiency in the field.
