Sr. Purchase Manager

Job Opportunity: Sr. Purchase Manager (Infrastructure & Construction)

Company: Saurabh Builders

Location: Head Office (HO)

Role Type: Full-time

Experience: 7+ Years (Strictly in Infrastructure/Road Construction)

The Mission

Saurabh Builders is expanding, and we are looking for a key leader to professionalize our supply chain. We don't just need a buyer; we need a Process Architect.

We are looking for a seasoned professional who has "been there, done that"—someone who can not only negotiate the best rates for Bitumen and Spares but also establish a robust coordination system between our remote Sites, the Head Office, and the Accounts Department.

Key Responsibilities

1. System Setup & Process Implementation (Priority):

• Build the Process: Design and enforce Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the entire procurement cycle (Indent -> PO -> GRN -> Payment).
• Bridge the Gap: Create a communication channel that stops the blame game between Site Engineers (urgency) and Accounts (documentation).
• Digitization: Move the company away from ad-hoc phone orders to a structured tracking system (Excel/ERP).

2. Strategic Procurement:

• Petroleum Products: Handle bulk purchasing of Bitumen, LDO, and Diesel, monitoring price trends to buy at the right time.
• Machinery Spares: Expert sourcing of parts for Heavy Earthmovers (Excavators, Pavers, Rollers) with the technical knowledge to avoid wrong orders.
• Civil Materials: Bulk procurement of Aggregates, Steel, and Cement.

3. Commercial & Vendor Management:

• Payment Coordination: Work closely with the Accounts Department to plan cash flow and ensure critical vendors are paid on time to prevent supply stoppages.
• Rate Contracts: Establish Annual Rate Contracts (ARCs) for regular consumables to reduce repetitive negotiation time.

Candidate Profile (Non-Negotiable)

• Industry Experience: Proven experience in a Road Construction or Infrastructure company is paramount. You must understand the cost of a paver standing idle for 4 hours.
• System Setter: Experience in implementing purchasing systems or cleaning up disorganized supply chains in previous roles.
• Technical Edge: You must know the difference between genuine and aftermarket spares and understand site logistics.
• Assertive Coordination: Ability to hold Site Supervisors accountable for GRNs and push Accounts for timely payments when necessary.

Why Join Us?

• Authority: You will have the mandate to structure the department your way.
• Impact: Direct access to the Directors and the ability to improve the company's bottom line significantly.
• Growth: A stable, long-term leadership position at HO.
