Faxon Machining
The Supply Chain Manager ensures that the company consistently delivers quality products on time by coordinating, organizing, and planning all resources needed to support production. This role not only manages the flow of raw materials, consumables, and production goods, but also connects directly with supporting functions—including facilities, engineering, quality, and maintenance—to remove barriers and keep operations running smoothly.
The Supply Chain Manager oversees activities involved in the identification, acquisition, scheduling, and replenishment of all materials and services required by the business. This includes both tactical actions, such as day-to-day purchasing and scheduling, and strategic responsibilities, such as building supplier relationships, controlling costs, and aligning capacity with customer demand.
By integrating production needs with indirect support functions, the Supply Chain Manager plays a central role in maintaining efficiency, maximizing service levels to customers, and driving long-term operational excellence while controlling cost and safeguarding quality.
Responsibilities:
Lead all supply chain activities to reduce cost, improve efficiency, and ensure uninterrupted support to production and supporting functions. Secure raw materials, consumables, equipment, supplies, and services required to meet or exceed production and service-level commitments. Collaborate with program teams—including engineering, quality, and operations—on engineering changes, product line extensions, and new product launches to ensure seamless material flow and production readiness. Build and maintain strong relationships with customers by prioritizing their needs and ensuring quality, on-time delivery of products. Identify, qualify, and manage alternate suppliers to mitigate risk, minimize cost, and strengthen business continuity. Negotiate effectively with suppliers to achieve favorable pricing, lead times, and quality outcomes that align with company and customer expectations. Deliver on annual cost management objectives, including direct savings, indirect reductions, and cost avoidance initiatives. Develop, monitor, and report on key performance indicators (KPIs) that measure service levels, cost, quality, and continuous improvement across the supply chain. Assess current processes across production and support functions, recommend improvements, and champion Lean initiatives that enhance efficiency and eliminate waste. Maintain compliance with company spend authority guidelines and exercise sound judgment in procurement decisions. Ensure all activities and documentation comply with ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100 standards, as well as internal company procedures. Requirements:
Minimum 10 years of experience in supply chain within a manufacturing environment; machining, fabrication, and/or assembly experience strongly preferred. APICS CPIM, CSCP or ISM CPSM certification preferred. Solid working knowledge of manufacturing and machining processes to align material, tooling, and consumable flow with production requirements. Proficiency in ERP/MRP systems for material planning, scheduling, and inventory control (experience with JobBOSS/JobBOSS2 preferred). Strong skills in Microsoft Excel (pivot tables, formulas, data analysis) and working knowledge of the broader Microsoft Office Suite for reporting and communication. Hands-on experience with purchasing practices, including order placement, expediting, supplier follow-up, and resolution of shortages. Familiarity with inventory management techniques (cycle counts, safety stock, reorder points, and min/max systems). Understanding of generally accepted procurement laws, regulations, and ethical practices. Work Environment:
This position also has a role in a professional office environment which routinely uses standard office equipment such as computers, phones, photocopiers, filing cabinets and fax machines. The noise level in the work environment and job sites can be loud when on the shop floor. Physical Requirements:
