Job Description
Job Description
Position Overview
Seasafe Homes is hiring a
Purchasing Coordinator
to support material purchasing, vendor coordination, estimating support, and job cost flow across active residential construction projects. This role is essential to helping the company scale by improving purchasing speed, reducing bottlenecks, increasing accountability, and creating cleaner handoffs between field, finance, and operations.
This role is intended to take day-to-day purchasing and PO coordination off leadership so the construction team can stay focused on building and execution.
What You’ll Do
Create and issue purchase orders based on field takeoffs, project needs, and approved scopes
Manage purchasing across multiple active builds
Coordinate with vendors and suppliers on pricing, lead times, delivery timing, and order accuracy
Move quickly, follow up consistently, and keep projects on schedule
Support estimating and budgeting by organizing quotes and helping compare vendor pricing
Work with construction leadership to confirm material needs and timing by project
Help track committed costs against budget and escalate discrepancies
Support the transition of purchasing activity into Builder Trend
Maintain organized purchasing records, vendor data, and job-specific documentation
Follow up with vendors on open quotes, missing information, order changes, and delivery issues
Help ensure project teams have what they need when they need it
Support process consistency across multiple jobs and municipalities
Assist with subcontractor and vendor onboarding documentation as needed
What Success Looks Like
Purchase orders are issued accurately and on time
Material and vendor coordination no longer bottlenecks project execution
Quotes, POs, and purchasing records are organized and easy to track
Construction leadership spends less time chasing pricing and orders
Finance has better visibility into committed costs and purchasing activity
Buildertrend becomes a usable operational purchasing tool rather than a future goal
Qualifications
Experience in purchasing, procurement, operations coordination, or vendor management
Strong organization and follow-through
Comfortable handling multiple active jobs and deadlines at once
Ability to communicate clearly with vendors, field teams, and internal stakeholders
Strong attention to detail with numbers, scopes, and documentation
Comfortable working in spreadsheets, purchasing systems, and construction software
Able to identify missing information and ask good follow-up questions
Preferred Background
Purchasing or coordination experience in construction, building materials, manufacturing, or similar operational environments
Experience with Buildertrend, QuickBooks, or similar systems
Residential construction familiarity is helpful, but deep construction experience is not required
Candidates from other industries with strong purchasing/process discipline may be a fit
Ideal Fit
Process-oriented and highly organized
Persistent and comfortable holding others accountable
Not intimidated by fast-paced environments with moving parts
Able to push items through to completion instead of waiting passively
Strong at getting answers, not just managing paperwork
Reporting Structure
Works closely with Construction and Finance
Supports field operations, purchasing flow, and vendor coordination
Plays a key role in helping Seasafe scale operationally
Why This Role Matters
This position helps Seasafe move to a more proactive, scalable purchasing system. The right person will improve speed, accountability, and clarity across the business.
