Materials Planner/Buyer (planner or procurement exp. req.) Description Our client, an international technology solutions provider, is looking for a proactive, collaborative Materials Planner & Buyer to join their team in Littleton, MA. This is a unique opportunity with a company that doesn’t manufacture products in‑house. Instead, they assemble both custom and off‑the‑shelf technology solutions by partnering closely with software and hardware vendors, as well as their OEM customer base. You’ll spend about 75% of your time focused on materials planning, with the remaining time dedicated to purchasing. You’ll work closely with their largest customer, taking ownership of order processing from start to finish. The position is highly collaborative and client‑facing, and it also involves hands‑on data entry, as you’ll be working within both the customer’s ERP system and the company’s internal system to ensure everything stays aligned. Whether your background leans more toward planning or procurement, this role is a great fit for someone who has a strong background in supporting operational workflows across logistics and supply chain functions. Someone who would be excited to play a key role in continuous improvement initiatives for a company scaling up its operations. They’ve experienced double‑digit growth over the past four years so you can feel secure about making this move.
