  • Oversee and manage the purchasing process for new home starts in communities throughout the greater Houston area.
  • Generate purchase orders for new home builds and any associated selection updates.
  • Collaborate with construction managers, estimators, and other team members to anticipate material needs and adjust purchase schedules to ensure alignment with project timelines.
  • Approve and send out variance purchase orders promptly.
  • Update new home start details in the Newstar operating system.
  • Maintain accurate records of all purchase orders, invoices, and deliveries, while preparing regular reports on purchasing activities, cost savings, and inventory levels.
  • Assist with updating purchase orders and entering specific payroll invoices into the system.
  • Monitor material costs, identifying opportunities to reduce costs while maintaining quality standards.
  • Coordinate stage moves as directed by the construction managers.

  • Positive attitude with a team-oriented mindset.

CORE VALUES

  • Integrity: Do the right thing, always. Corporate sustainability can only be achieved through trust and integrity.
  • Growth: Strive to do more. There is no growth in your comfort zone and no comfort in your growth zone.
  • Innovation: Think differently. Innovation is the ability to see change as an opportunity, not a threat.
  • Vision: A strong team turns a vision into reality. We focus not on where we are, but where we are headed.
  • Excellence: Excellence is not a skill, it’s an attitude. We are what we repeatedly do. It is not an act, but a habit
