What You’ll Get to Do
Aluminum is critical to what we build, and you will be the person who owns it. As Director of Metal (Aluminum) Procurement (extrusions & billet), you will set the sourcing strategy for one of our most important materials across multiple business lines, with a seat at the table & results you can measure.
This is more than a buying role. You will be the company’s recognized expert on a strategic commodity, shaping how we secure supply, manage price volatility & partner with the producers, extruders & fabricators who keep our customers’ projects on schedule.
You will lead a team, work side by side with business unit leaders & help build our supply chain function as we grow through our Supply Chain Center of Excellence & PMO.
Key Responsibilities
Own the strategy. Build & execute multi-year extrusion & billet sourcing strategies that balance cost, supply continuity, quality, lead time & innovation.
Lead the value chain. Negotiate contracts & run sourcing events with primary producers, secondary smelters & refiners (recycled billet), billet suppliers, extruders, fabricators & distributors.
Stay ahead of the market. Use index-based, LME-linked pricing, hedging & supply risk monitoring to anticipate shifts in regional premiums, tariffs, energy, scrap & freight before they reach our costs.
Build partnerships that perform. Own supplier relationship management, including scorecards & executive business reviews. Drive supplier development, dual-sourcing, extrusion capacity & regional footprint alignment.
Lead & develop people. Coach the metals procurement team & build supply chain skills in partnership with HR.
Partner with the business. Align aluminum demand, specifications & supply plans with business unit leaders, engineering & operations.
Raise the standard. Develop standards, policies & governance, champion the tools that bring consistency & scale, and support the Source-to-Pay rollout with IT. Lead CoE & PMO programs & turn data into insight.
Lead change. Drive a continuous improvement culture across business lines with a business-enabler mindset.
Shape what’s next. Support ESG goals, such as recycled content & low-carbon aluminum disclosures, and contribute to M&A diligence & integration.
