Supply Chain ManagerSkoFlo Industries - Woodinville, WA (on-site)
The RoleWe're hiring a Supply Chain Manager to own purchasing, planning, strategic sourcing, and inventory control - leading a 5-person team and reporting directly to the Director of Operations. This is a working leadership role: you'll set the strategy and lead the team, and you'll also be hands-on with supplier negotiations, MRP ownership, and the sourcing decisions that keep production moving.
In year one, your top priority is resolving vendor risk across our supply base - identifying single-source exposure, delivery risk, and quality trends, and building qualified alternatives. You'll also lead your team's transition from experience-based buying habits into a fully MRP-driven operation inside our ERP system (Epicor Kinetic).
What You'll Do- Lead a team of buyers, planners, and inventory staff across our Subsea and Surface product lines
- Own MRP planning parameters and drive full ERP adoption - replacing manual habits with system-driven execution
- Identify and resolve vendor risk (single-sourcing, delivery performance, quality trends) through supplier qualification and negotiation
- Partner with Quality Engineering to get new suppliers aligned on documentation requirements before parts ever arrive
- Own inventory strategy - working closely with our Inventory Lead, who executes day-to-day logistics
- Analyze active SKU count across product categories to identify standardization opportunities
- Manage the department budget and report on supply chain performance
What You Bring- 5-7+ years in manufacturing purchasing, planning, or supply chain, including direct people management
- A track record of driving ERP/MRP adoption on a team - not just using a system, but changing how people work with it
- Real experience sourcing from machine shops and custom/engineered component suppliers - this isn't a catalog-buying role
- Comfort evaluating and adopting new operational tools, including automation, to help a small team work efficiently
- Supplier negotiation and qualification experience; ISO 9001 environment experience preferred
- Ability to travel for in-person supplier qualification visits, negotiations, and vendor meetings
- Position is onsite in Woodinville, WA. Standard schedule, Monday-Friday
Compensation & BenefitsBase salary range: $120,000-$160,000, depending on experience.Benefits include medical and dental insurance (including an HSA option with company contribution), a 401(k) plan with a 100% company match up to 4%, paid time off starting at hire, and paid holidays.
Why This Role, HonestlyWe're telling you upfront: this is a small team doing real work in a niche industry, not a big-company title with a lot of layers underneath you. If you want to build something efficient, durable, and worth believing in - and you'd rather fix the actual system than work around it - we want to talk to you.
