Description

Description Balanced Body is looking for a detail-oriented, high-energy Buyer to join our fast-paced manufacturing team. This is a 100% on-site role at our Sacramento headquarters. You will be responsible for ensuring our production lines never stop by managing the flow of raw materials and resolving supply chain disruptions in real-time. The ideal candidate isn't just an office worker—you are comfortable walking the production floor, working with the manufacturing crew to resolve quality issues, and using Excel to manage complex data. Key Areas of Responsibility Production Support: Generate and manage purchase orders for raw materials (wood, steel, hardware), MRO supplies, and specialized components to ensure 100% part availability for our manufacturing lines. Issue Resolution: Partner directly with Production, Engineering, and Quality teams to investigate supplier non-conformance and resolve part discrepancies immediately. Supplier Management: Actively manage open order reports, track late deliveries, and expedite materials to meet shifting production schedules. Data Integrity: Maintain accurate MRP system parameters (lead times, re-order points, and MOQ) and resolve any price or quantity variances with Accounting. Inventory Control: Monitor inventory levels using Kanban and Blanket order methods to prevent stockouts while minimizing excess. Requirements Manufacturing Background: 3–5 years of procurement or purchasing experience specifically within a manufacturing environment. (Experience with machine or fabrication shops is a major plus). Excel Mastery: Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel is required (you should be comfortable with VLOOKUPs, pivot tables, and data manipulation). ERP/MRP Experience: Hands-on experience using ERP systems to run reports and manage Bill of Materials (BOM). Experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is a plus. Manufacturing Literacy: Ability to read "Where-Used" reports and understand how raw materials transform into finished product. Communication: Exceptional interactive skills—you must be comfortable talking to both a shop floor lead and an outside vendor in the same hour.
