We are looking for a procurement support specialist to join a long-term contract assignment in Charlotte, North Carolina. This position works closely with supply chain, operations, and procurement teams to improve visibility into material status, resolve part-related issues, and help maintain continuity for site priorities. The ideal candidate will be comfortable managing tracking data, communicating updates across teams, and driving follow-up actions that support timely supplier performance and internal approvals. Responsibilities: • Partner with supply chain managers, operations leaders, and value stream stakeholders each day to identify high-priority components and align support with business needs. • Coordinate with procurement teams to escalate supplier concerns, secure delivery commitments, and maintain accurate records in internal tracking tools and reporting files. • Monitor material availability and provide clear status updates on critical parts to operations and supply chain teams on a daily basis. • Help remove internal barriers that delay part movement by following up on approvals tied to quality reviews, first article inspections, and engineering-related changes. • Participate in recurring site, business unit, and supply chain meetings to share updates on part status and highlight open risks or required actions. • Maintain commitment and demand tracking spreadsheets, including overdue items, to support planning visibility and follow-through. • Gather updates on alternate sourcing options and document next steps while driving progress on unresolved supplier actions. • Track open issue items and measure processing timelines to help prioritize urgent shortages and improve response speed. • Support reporting, presentations, and data updates that strengthen forecasting accuracy and improve communication across stakeholder groups.
