Job Description

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.
