The Role
We are looking for a resourceful, detail-oriented Purchasing & Logistics Administrator to keep our production floor running smoothly. In this role, you aren’t just a number in a corporate machine—you are the vital link between our suppliers, our shop floor, and our customers. Because we specialize in custom contract manufacturing, you will manage a wide variety of unique jobs, navigate our legacy ERP system, and handle critical compliance documentation for government contracts.

What You’ll Do:
- Source & Buy: Read custom bills of materials (BOMs) to purchase unique metals, hardware, and outside processing services for specific jobs.
- Keep Us Compliant: Secure and organize critical aerospace documentation, including material certifications and Certificates of Conformance (CoC).
- Manage Logistics: Coordinate incoming freight and schedule outgoing shipments, manually preparing accurate packing lists and shipping labels.
- Problem Solve: Use your grit and Excel skills to track orders, expedite tight deadlines, and resolve vendor discrepancies.
What We’re Looking For:
- 2+ years of administrative experience in manufacturing, purchasing, or logistics (Aerospace, Defense, or AS9100/ITAR environment is a huge plus!).
- A master of the manual—you are comfortable using Excel and older ERP systems, and you don't need automated software to keep yourself organized.
- A proactive communicator who can build strong relationships with local vendors and freight carriers.
- High attention to detail; you understand that a missing certification can hold up a major government shipment.
