Director of Purchasing
Logistics / Supply Chain · Plains
This placement combined two requirements that rarely overlap: director-level purchasing leadership with deep distribution experience and genuine proficiency in data analysis tools like Power BI. The client is a mid-sized industrial solutions distributor near Kansas City looking to add to their executive team—someone who could own inventory strategy and vendor negotiations while pushing technological improvements. The hybrid structure and $120K-$150K range added friction for candidates already in senior roles elsewhere. First qualified candidate submitted in 14 days, offer accepted the following day. This was a repeat client.
