Job Description

Job Description


Are you the kind of person who can negotiate like a pro, manage and negotiate vendors agreements and work with day day construction bids? If so, we may have the role for you.

This role is temporary for up to 6 months - covering a medical leave. Position is fully onsite in Culver City, CA. NO relocation offered.

We're looking for a Purchasing Manager who's equal parts relationship-builder, detail-detective, smooth-talking negotiator, and construction-savvy problem solver. If Excel is your comfort zone, vendors trust you, and you have strong opinions about plan specs… let's talk.
What You'll Do (aka your superpowers):

  • Lead the sourcing, bidding, and negotiation process for construction projects-making sure bids match plans, specs, and budgets without breaking a sweat .

  • Build strong relationships with vendors and subcontractors while keeping our master bid list current, and happy.

  • Collaborate with Construction, Land Development, Planning, and Design teams to keep information flowing and field questions like the rockstar you are.

  • Oversee purchase orders, contracts, budget revisions, and month-end numbers-helping keep our projects financially on point.

  • Stay on top of industry trends and bring forward new ideas for efficiency, cost savings, and quality improvements (bonus points if they make people say "why didn't we think of that sooner?").
  • Construction or home building industry highly preferred.
If you enjoy making order out of chaos, saving money without sacrificing quality, and being the go-to person who just knows how to get things done -we'd love to meet you. No relocation offered. Looking to hire ASAP!

$45-60/hr
