About The Position

The Procurement Project Manager leads procurement execution for assigned projects from requirements definition through supplier execution, delivery, and project closeout. Serving as the primary procurement interface to Project Management, the role translates project schedules and requirements into an integrated procurement plan, coordinates Project Buyers and suppliers, tracks material and equipment readiness, identifies risks, and drives recovery actions when supplier performance threatens project requirements. The role manages the project's procurement workstream within a center-led model: category strategy, supplier selection, commercial terms, and supplier-risk decisions are governed strategically, while transactional execution is performed tactically.

The position develops procurement plans and priorities, monitors long-lead and schedule-sensitive materials and equipment, and coordinates with Project Management, Engineering, Logistics, Warehousing, Quality, Finance, Scheduling, and Strategic Procurement/Category Management. It supports project cost visibility, maintains procurement records, and ensures purchasing activity follows approved suppliers, agreements, delegated authority, and Procurement policy.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain, Business, Engineering, Construction Management, Operations, or a related discipline, or equivalent relevant experience.
• Significant procurement, project procurement, supply chain, equipment, manufacturing, or project-execution experience.
• Demonstrated ability to manage complex procurement schedules and multiple suppliers simultaneously.
• Strong understanding of purchase orders, supplier management, expediting, lead times, logistics, commercial terms, and material planning.
• Strong analytical, communication, escalation, and cross-functional leadership skills.
• Ability to interpret project schedules, bills of material, technical requirements, and supplier commitments.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain procurement plans for assigned projects.
• Translate project schedules, bills of material, equipment requirements, and engineering releases into procurement priorities and milestones.
• Establish procurement deliverables, required-on-site dates, sourcing dependencies, and material-readiness priorities.
• Lead procurement status reviews and maintain visibility from requirements through purchase order placement, supplier commitment, shipment, and delivery.
• Coordinate multiple buyers supporting the same project.
• Monitor long-lead, critical-path, and schedule-sensitive materials and equipment.
• Identify procurement constraints before they affect site execution.
• Drive recovery plans for supplier delays, shortages, specification issues, quality concerns, and logistics constraints.
• Escalate unresolved cost, capacity, quality, specification, or schedule risks with documented business and project impact.
• Partner with Project Management and Engineering to ensure procurement requirements are clear, timely, and executable.
• Coordinate with Logistics and Warehousing on transportation, delivery constraints, staging, and site requirements.
• Attend weekly cross-functional project reviews and report procurement status, risks, and mitigation plans.
• Align procurement milestones with overall project milestones in collaboration with the Product Program Manager.
• Work with Quality on supplier and material-quality issues, and with Finance on commercial and transaction issues affecting execution.
• Coordinate with Strategic Procurement/Category Management when project requirements fall outside established supplier strategies or commercial arrangements.
• Ensure supplier commitments are translated into clear project-material status and work with Scheduling to keep procurement milestone target completion dates current.
• Ensure purchasing activity follows approved suppliers, negotiated agreements, delegated authority, and Procurement policy.
• Engage Category Management when sourcing decisions require strategic or category ownership.
• Support project cost visibility and identify cost-avoidance or commercial-improvement opportunities.
• Maintain appropriate procurement documentation and system records.
