Logistics & Procurement Manager That Operates Like a Ninja (Portland)
3311 NE 158th Ave, Portland, OR 97230, USA
Location: On-Site, NE Portland, OR
Company: Confidential (Clean Label Ingredient Manufacturing)
We are a clean-label ingredient manufacturing company built on concierge-level service: being shoulder-to-shoulder with our customers, anticipating needs, and delivering solutions with care and professionalism. Our team runs on EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System), with clarity, accountability, and vision guiding how we operate.
We’re now looking for our next Logistics & Procurement Manager—someone who can own the end-to-end flow of ingredients and materials, ensuring that our supply chain is both efficient and resilient, while staying true to our promise of quality and service.
Why this role matters
Our ability to deliver clean-label ingredients on time, at the right cost, and at the right quality depends on strong logistics and procurement leadership. This role ensures that we have the materials we need, when we need them, and that our operations stay aligned with both customer expectations and market realities. The Logistics & Procurement Manager will play a key role in balancing cost, service, and risk while building strong supplier and logistics partnerships.
What you’ll do
• Oversee all purchasing activities for raw materials, packaging, and supplies.
• Manage supplier relationships, ensuring alignment on quality, compliance, and reliability.
• Negotiate contracts, terms, and pricing to balance cost savings with security of supply.
• Coordinate inbound and outbound logistics, including freight, warehousing, and distribution.
• Develop and monitor KPIs to measure supplier performance, inventory turns, and logistics efficiency.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Production, Sales, and Finance to align supply planning with demand forecasts.
• Stay ahead of market trends, tariffs, and global trade dynamics that impact ingredient sourcing.
• Implement continuous improvement initiatives to streamline procurement and logistics processes.
What we’re looking for
• Proven experience in procurement, logistics, or supply chain management, ideally in food or ingredient manufacturing.
• Strong negotiation skills and the ability to build long-term supplier relationships.
• Knowledge of international sourcing, freight forwarding, and compliance regulations.
• Excellent analytical and organizational skills; ability to manage complexity and multiple priorities.
• Familiarity with EOS is a plus, but not required—we’ll train you in our system.
• Someone looking for more than just a paycheck. If you’re only here to clock in and collect, we respect that—but this is not the role for you. We need someone who thrives in a growth-minded, collaborative culture.
Our Core Values
• Growth Mindset: Embracing challenges as opportunities, staying curious, adaptable, and always striving to improve—not just in what we do, but in how we think, lead, and support one another.
• Need to Contribute: Showing up with purpose, ownership, and commitment to the team’s success. Being proactive, dependable, and collaborative—not because it’s asked, but because it’s who you are.
• Trustworthy: Doing what you say you’ll do, acting with integrity, and earning confidence through consistency and accountability.
• Positive Attitude: Leading with gratitude, humor, and a can-do spirit that lifts the team. We don’t do Eeyores here—positivity is contagious.
• Energy & Passion: Bringing enthusiasm and drive to everything, inspiring progress, and finding purpose in the mission.
What success looks like
• Reliable sourcing of high-quality, clean-label ingredients at competitive costs.
• Strong supplier partnerships that weather market volatility.
• Logistics systems that deliver on time and with efficiency.
• Inventory that supports customer demand without excess or waste.
• A procurement and logistics team that embodies our concierge-level service standard.
