Job description

Venor is proud to partner with Maple Leaf Homes in their search for a Director of Procurement to join their team.

Located in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Maple Leaf Homes is a leading manufacturer of modular housing solutions, proudly serving Atlantic Canada, the New England States, and Central Canada. With over 40 years of industry experience, the company is known for delivering turnkey, ready-to-move-in homes with a focus on quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction.

As the company continues to grow and evolve, Maple Leaf Homes is seeking a strategic and experienced Director of Procurement to join its senior leadership team. This critical role will oversee procurement operations, build long-term sourcing strategies, and manage supplier relationships, while ensuring cost-effective and timely acquisition of goods and services. It’s an exciting opportunity for a collaborative leader who thrives in a dynamic, fast-paced manufacturing environment and is passionate about operational excellence.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Develop and execute comprehensive procurement strategies that support operational efficiency and long-term business growth.
  • Oversee all aspects of purchasing operations, including inventory control, vendor negotiations, contract management, and cost analysis.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams—including production, engineering, finance, and executive leadership—to forecast material requirements and align procurement planning with organizational objectives.
  • Analyze market trends to identify opportunities for cost savings, supply chain risk mitigation, and operational improvements.
  • Manage procurement budgets, track key performance indicators (KPIs), and provide regular reporting to the executive leadership team.
  • Build and maintain strong supplier partnerships to ensure quality, reliability, and long-term value.
  • Ensure adherence to internal systems (Syspro ERP), procurement policies, and all applicable regulatory requirements.
  • Mentor and lead a procurement team, promoting a culture of continuous improvement and high performance.
  • Drive digital transformation and process optimization within the procurement function to enhance efficiency and reporting capabilities.

What We Are Looking For

  • Minimum of 7 years of progressive procurement or supply chain management experience, with at least 3 years in a leadership or director-level role.
  • Proven experience within the construction, modular housing, or manufacturing sector is strongly preferred.
  • Strong financial acumen with a track record of managing multimillion-dollar procurement budgets.
  • Advanced negotiation skills, contract management expertise, and supplier development experience.
  • Proficiency in ERP systems (Syspro experience is a strong asset) and Microsoft Office Suite.
  • A strategic thinker with excellent analytical, communication, and leadership abilities.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead change, build high-performing teams, and influence at all organizational levels.

At Venor and Maple Leaf Homes, we embrace a culture of belonging in the workplace. No matter who you are, where you’re from, how you think, what you believe in, or who you love, we welcome your application. We all come from different backgrounds and different walks of life, bringing in unique perspectives and experiences. We encourage applications from 2SLGBTQ+, Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC), women, newcomers to Canada, and people with disabilities.
