MRO Buyer

MRO Buyer owns sourcing and purchasing of everything that keeps our Tijuana plants running but doesn't go into the chair: MRO supplies, tooling, packaging consumables, safety equipment, facility services and more.

Responsibilities:

• Identify, qualify and onboard indirect suppliers in Tijuana, Baja California and the broader Mexico/U.S. border region.
• Run RFQs and competitive bids; evaluate quotes on total cost of ownership, lead time, quality and service.
• Convert requisitions to purchase orders in the ERP accurately and on time.
• Manage blanket POs, releases and consignment or vendor-managed inventory programs for high-use MRO items.
• Track supplier on-time delivery, quality and responsiveness; hold regular performance reviews and make decisions to retain or replace suppliers with supervision and direction from the MX SCM Manager.
• Maintain supplier records, contracts, certificates and insurance documentation.
