Why This Role Exists -   This is one of the most strategically important operational leadership positions in our company.

The Supply Chain Manager directly influences:

Manufacturing continuity

Customer service

Inventory performance

Procurement strategy

Vendor partnerships

Logistics

Cost management

Operational responsiveness

EBITDA

We're not looking for someone to simply purchase materials.

We're looking for someone who builds systems, anticipates risk, strengthens supplier relationships, and drives operational excellence across the business.

The Opportunity -

The Supply Chain Manager reports directly to the COO and leads a lean organization consisting of:

Supply Chain Manager

Supply Chain Coordinator

Because of the size of our company, this leader must comfortably operate at both the strategic and tactical levels.

They should enjoy rolling up their sleeves while simultaneously building long-term capability. 

What Success Looks Like- Within the first 12–18 months we expect this leader to:

Build stronger supplier partnerships

Improve inventory visibility and planning

Increase supply continuity

Reduce operational disruptions

Create greater accountability within the function

Improve procurement discipline

Bring structure without creating bureaucracy

Become a trusted cross-functional business partner. We're looking for someone who naturally sees opportunities to improve rather than simply maintaining existing processes. 

Relocation - This position is based in Tyler, Texas.

We are open to relocation, but candidates must be genuinely excited about living in East Texas and becoming part of our long-term leadership team. 

Compensation - Current target compensation:

Base Salary: $130,000–145,000
Higher consideration for exceptional strategic operators

This role should be positioned as a critical operational leadership role—not simply a purchasing manager position. 

Our Hiring Process - Our interview process evaluates both:

Right Seat

Experience

Technical capability

Business acumen

Leadership competence

Right Person

Values alignment

Leadership style

Culture fit

Motivation

Communication

Long-term potential

We also utilize Culture Index as one component of our evaluation process to better understand behavioral tendencies and leadership style. It is one data point—not the hiring decision.
