Procurement Coordinator (Data Center Construction)

Position Overview

We are seeking a highly organized and proactive Procurement Coordinator to support large-scale data center construction projects by managing the procurement lifecycle for critical electrical equipment. This role is ideal for someone with strong purchase order coordination, supplier communication, and equipment tracking experience who thrives in a fast-paced, high-volume environment.

This is not a strategic sourcing position. Rather than leading RFPs, RFQs, or supplier negotiations, this role is focused on executing purchase orders, tracking equipment deliveries, expediting shipments, and ensuring materials arrive on schedule to support construction milestones.

Key Responsibilities

Purchase Order Management

• Create and submit purchase order requests using approved vendor quotations.
• Prepare and complete procurement intake documentation for internal purchasing teams.
• Track purchase orders from request through vendor acceptance and final execution.
• Ensure purchase orders receive all required approvals and signatures.
• Identify and resolve issues delaying purchase order processing, including routing errors, incorrect contacts, and approval bottlenecks.

Equipment Delivery Coordination

• Monitor delivery schedules and required-on-site dates for critical project equipment.
• Maintain accurate tracking information within spreadsheets and internal project management systems.
• Participate in recurring supplier meetings to review purchase order status and upcoming deliveries.
• Communicate delivery updates and schedule changes to project stakeholders.

Equipment Expediting

• Monitor late or delayed shipments and proactively follow up with suppliers.
• Obtain real-time shipping updates and revised delivery commitments.
• Resolve issues related to incomplete, split, or missing shipments.
• Escalate delivery risks as needed to minimize project delays and maintain construction schedules.

Supplier Coordination

• Serve as a primary point of contact for suppliers regarding order status and delivery timelines.
• Build strong working relationships with vendors to ensure timely communication and issue resolution.
• Support procurement and project teams by providing accurate status updates on equipment deliveries.

Required Qualifications

• Experience coordinating procurement, purchasing, or equipment ordering activities.
• Experience supporting capital projects, construction projects, or other equipment-intensive environments.
• Hands-on experience with:
  • Purchase order processing
  • Equipment expediting
  • Materials planning
  • Delivery coordination
  • Supplier follow-up and communication
• Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Excellent communication and problem-solving skills.
• Self-motivated with the ability to work independently and take initiative.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting data center construction projects.
• Experience ordering or tracking electrical equipment.
• Familiarity with procurement systems, ERP platforms, or project tracking tools.
• Experience supporting large CAPEX projects.

Ideal Background

Candidates may come from roles such as:

• Procurement Coordinator
• Sourcing Coordinator
• Materials Planner
• Materials Expediter
• Equipment Expediter
• Procurement Specialist (Operations-Focused)
• Purchasing Coordinator

What We''re Looking For

• Highly organized and detail-oriented.
• Strong sense of urgency and accountability.
• Proactive problem solver who follows through with minimal supervision.
• Comfortable working in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment.
• Collaborative team player with excellent supplier and stakeholder communication skills.

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to play a critical role in supporting the construction of large-scale data center infrastructure. You''ll work alongside procurement, project management, and supplier teams to ensure critical electrical equipment is delivered on time, helping keep multimillion-dollar projects on schedule. For professionals who enjoy coordinating complex logistics, solving supply chain challenges, and driving execution, this role offers immediate impact and long-term growth potential.
