Procurement Specialist - Parts

If you know parts, understand purchasing, and can spot a better way of doing things, this is an opportunity to put that experience to work across an entire equipment rental operation.

Vandalia Rental is looking for a Procurement Specialist – Parts to help us build a smarter, more efficient approach to parts procurement. You’ll work across our branches, service teams, suppliers, and SmartEquip to improve how we source parts, manage inventory, control freight costs, and support the equipment our customers depend on.

At Vandalia Rental, parts procurement directly affects whether equipment is ready to rent or sitting idle. We’re looking for someone who sees the bigger picture—someone who can connect parts availability, inventory, suppliers, freight, technology, and equipment uptime and make the entire process work better.

What You’ll Own

Parts Procurement & SmartEquip

Take ownership of the systems and processes behind how we purchase parts. Serve as our SmartEquip expert, improve vendor configurations, onboard suppliers, establish best practices, and find opportunities to make purchasing faster and more consistent across the company.

Inventory Strategy & Analytics

Turn parts data into action. Analyze usage, inventory levels, turns, returns, and obsolete inventory to help branches stock what they need without unnecessarily tying up capital. Establish stocking levels and reorder points based on actual demand.

Supplier Performance & Relationships

Build relationships with suppliers that deliver more than just parts. Evaluate pricing, service, availability, and performance; administer supplier scorecards; identify preferred vendors; and help us get greater value from our supplier partnerships.

Cost & Freight Optimization

Look for the dollars hiding in the process. Analyze freight trends, pricing consistency, branch transfers, returns, and purchasing activity to identify practical opportunities to reduce costs without sacrificing equipment availability.

Better Processes Across the Business

Work directly with branch operations, service, accounting, and vendors to solve problems and improve how parts move through the organization. When something isn’t working, we want someone who will figure out why and help build a better way.
