You currently live **more than a 45 minute commute from Cambridge** Ontario
At Cambridge Elevating, we are seeking someone to join our team as a Strategic Procurement Lead in a full time capacity. Our operations are grounded in a strong engineering and customer support culture. We're aiming to evolve procurement into a strategic function that helps unlock growth, reduce cost volatility, and elevate our dealer and customer experience.
At Cambridge Elevating we are the premium home elevator manufacturer for North America, and have extremely low employee turnover. We have a high-performance team environment and our staff stay with us to build a career with us.
**Our Mission**: To create and uphold an atmosphere of excellence being the most responsive to our customers’ needs enabling us to support their success
**Our Purpose**: To design, manufacture, install & service premium Cambridge Elevating products that meet or exceed our customers’ expectations. This is to be accomplished by:
- An unparalleled dedication to customer service
- A focus on attention to detail
- Proactively surpassing market driven demands
- Dealing with our employees and stakeholders in a fair and ethical manner
- Ensuring our employees work in a safe & healthy work environment
- Ensuring our actions have mínimal impact on the environment
**Core Behaviors**: In an effort to elaborate on our Mission and Purpose, this list of core behaviors intends to sustain and strengthen the work environment we choose to come to each working day:
- _Treat all people with dignity and respect._ This includes co-workers, customers, vendors, cleaning staff, the owner and anyone else you come into contact with while being a representative of Cambridge Elevating.
- _Honor the commitments you make._ This builds trust and indicates reliability. This is something everyone looks for in all of their relationships. If you anticipate being unable to meet a commitment, communicate early to reset expectations. Deliberate planning is the best path to achieve honoring your commitments.
- _Make your expectations clear._ Define what success is so people know exactly what is needed and why. Ambiguous or moving targets are frustrating and inefficient to achieve.
- _Be a member of the Cambridge Elevating team._ Be reliable, accountable, helpful, and supportive of those around you - we’re all in this together.
- _Be Solution Focused._ Always focus on blameless problem solving - blaming people or circumstance won’t improve the situation going forward. Focus on things we can control. Whether you have the right answer or not, propose a solution to every problem you encounter. It may be the solution we need, or it may spark the next great idea.
