About The Position
The Procurement & Logistics Coordinator tracks components from initial purchase order generation up through final transport execution out of the facility.

The Procurement & Logistics Coordinator is accountable for material availability and final product delivery across the facility’s supply chain. This role ensures raw materials and long-lead electrical items arrive exactly when needed to maintain workshop production schedules, while managing the complex rigging, heavy-haul logistics, and transport permits required to move finished modular buildings out of the construction yard.
