Full job description

Who We Are

We’re a team that puts customers first, invests in our people, and takes pride in being part of the local community. We’re looking for driven, commercially minded purchasing professional who knows the building materials industry and is ready to take ownership of a key product category across a region.

What’s in it for You

Extended health benefits package
RRSP matching program
Real opportunities to grow and advance within the company
Ongoing learning and development opportunities
Employee discount on retail products after the first three months
Employee and Family Assistance Program to support your well-being and that of your family
A team culture built on three core values: Customers First, Inspired People, and Community Connection

About the Role

As the Regional Building Materials Purchaser, you’ll have ownership of key building material categories across your region – ensuring our stores are well-stocked, competitively priced, and operating a strong margin. You’ll make sourcing decisions, manage vendor relationships, and develop strategies to continuously improve inventory performance across the region.

This is a broader role than a store-level purchaser – you’ll work with multiple stakeholders across locations, travel within the region as needed, and bring a regional perspective to purchasing decisions that affect customer availability and business profitability. It suits someone who is analytical, self-directed, and comfortable managing complexity across a multi-site operation.

What You’ll Be Doing

Purchasing & Inventory Management

Maintaining strong in-stock positions on key building material categories across the region
Determining the best sourcing options based on pricing, availability, and lead times
Working with stakeholders to supply both regular and special-order building materials for customers.
Managing inventory budget goals through effective, timely purchasing decisions
Using inventory analytics to improve margin and inventory turns while reducing shrink and stock-outs
Developing strategies to reduce obsolete inventory and minimize its impact on the business
Promoting shrink awareness and identifying potential sources of inventory loss, implementing corrective measures as required

Vendor Relationships & Collaboration

Building and maintaining strong vendor relationships to ensure priority service, competitive pricing, and reliable supply
Working cross-functionally with the leadership team, store employees, vendors, and customers to achieve regional inventory and margin goals
Fostering a solutions-focused culture where team members deliver excellent service to both internal and external customers
Travelling within the region as required to support stores, meet with vendors, and stay connected to regional market conditions
Ensuring the health and safety of all employees by consistently following safe work practices, obtaining proper training and certification, and using PPE whenever required
Reporting unsafe work practices or conditions immediately

What We’re Looking For

Here’s what will set you up for success in this role:

Analytical and commercially minded – you understand how purchasing decisions ripple through inventory turns, margins, and business performance across multiple locations
Strong negotiation and vendor relationship skills – you build productive partnerships while holding suppliers accountable to pricing and service standards
Highly organized and self-directed with superior time management skills and the ability to manage a complex, multi-site workload independently
A collaborative communicator who works effectively with store teams, leadership, and vendors across the region
Comfortable with regional travel as part of the role
Proficiency with computers and programs including Outlook, Excel, and Eagle Software (or similar inventory/purchasing systems)
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Mature, responsible, curious, and driven – you proactively identify problems and see solutions through to completion
Previous experience in inventory purchasing is a strong asset
Knowledge of the building materials, construction products, or the building supply industry is a strong asset

If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today and come be part of a team that’s proud of where they work and who they serve.
