Badger Talent Solutions
Milwaukee, WI

🚨 We’re Hiring: Supply Chain / Purchasing Manager– Milwaukee Area (On-site)


Badger Talent Solutions is partnering with a growing, privately held manufacturing organization in the Milwaukee area to hire a hands-on Supply Chain / Purchasing Leader to drive change!


This is a build-and-scale opportunity—you’ll establish processes, strengthen supplier strategy, and develop a purchasing team to support significant planned growth.


💥 Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

✔ High-impact role with direct visibility to senior leadership

✔ Opportunity to build and scale a supply chain function from the ground up

✔ Strong compensation, bonus potential, and comprehensive benefits

✔ Growth runway as the organization expands


🔧 What You’ll Be Doing:

📦 Lead purchasing across raw materials, MRO, and outside services

📊 Build S&OP, demand planning, and inventory strategies

🤝 Manage supplier relationships, pricing, and material availability

📈 Establish KPIs (OTD, PPV, inventory turns, lead times)

� Develop scalable processes, safety stock models, and planning tools

💻 Leverage ERP systems to improve visibility and decision-making

👥 Mentor and grow a purchasing/supply chain team


🎯 What You Bring:

  • 5+ years in procurement or supply chain management role within manufacturing
  • Experience sourcing metal-based raw materials (coil/sheet preferred)
  • Enjoy being a change agent
  • Experience building or improving planning, inventory, or S&OP processes
  • Strong analytical mindset with ERP/MRP experience
  • Leadership experience or readiness to step into a leadership role


This is ideal for someone who enjoys building structure, driving strategy, and owning outcomes in a fast-moving environment.
