Senior Buyer - Resin
About The Position
We are seeking a data-driven and strategic Resins Buyer to lead the sourcing, negotiation, and lifecycle management of our resin and polymer portfolio. In this role, you will manage complex supplier relationships, monitor global market trends, and work cross-functionally to ensure supply continuity and cost optimization. If you have a deep understanding of chemical commodities and a passion for driving value through strategic procurement, we want to hear from you. As a Resins Buyer, you will be an integral member of our Procurement Team, working collaboratively to execute sourcing strategies for our critical and volatile commodity categories. While you will thrive within a supportive team environment, you must also be comfortable working independently and taking full ownership of your assigned portfolio. We are looking for a self-starter who takes the initiative to identify risks and opportunities before they arise and who possesses a deep-seated willingness to learn the technical and commercial aspects of the dynamic resins market. Whether leading a cross-functional cost-savings project or guiding internal stakeholders through complex market shifts, your leadership will be vital to our success. You will serve as a key commercial link, bridging the gap between our Engineering teams and our global supply base. Your ability to balance an independent and proactive drive will be essential as we work together to navigate global trends, optimize multi-million dollar spend, and deliver innovative products to our customers.
