About Bigge

Bigge Crane and Rigging has been elevating America since 1916 . With over 1,800 cranes and a coast-to-coast presence, we buy, sell, rent, operate, and maintain one of the largest, most advanced crane fleets in the country. We’ve played a role in building some of America’s most iconic landmarks and earned a reputation for doing it right—with performance, precision, and accountability.

The Role

We’re hiring a Director of Procurement to take ownership of our $65 million non-OEM spend across parts, services, consumables, and indirect categories. This is a critical, senior leadership role reporting directly to the Vice President of Asset Management . You’ll oversee a national team of buyers and inventory specialists while also chairing the companywide Cost Optimization Team —tasked with delivering a minimum of $3 million in annual savings .

If you’re a seasoned operator who knows how to lead, negotiate, and streamline spend at scale—this is your seat at the table.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage $65M+ in non-OEM annual spend across all company departments and regions.
  • Lead, develop, and hold accountable a distributed team of procurement professionals and inventory managers.

  • Lead the cross-functional Cost Optimization Team , aligning initiatives to a $3M annual cost reduction target .
  • Build, implement, and enforce sourcing strategies, procurement policies, and vendor compliance standards.
  • Execute major contract negotiations with both national and regional vendors—targeting total value, not just lowest cost .
  • Identify, qualify, and onboard alternative suppliers that improve cost, delivery, or quality.
  • Optimize inventory levels and working capital—balance critical operational needs against cost and lead time realities.
  • Partner with Finance, Fleet, and Operations leadership to support budgeting, forecasting, and performance tracking.
  • Refine and drive efficiency within Microsoft D365 , improving procurement workflow visibility and control.

What You Bring

  • 10+ years of procurement leadership experience, preferably in heavy equipment, construction, rental, or asset-intensive sectors .
  • Demonstrated ability to manage eight-figure budgets with measurable results.
  • Strong negotiation instincts—can stand your ground and extract value without damaging supplier relationships.
  • Proven success in leading cross-functional teams to hit defined cost savings goals.
  • ERP fluency—ideally Microsoft D365 or comparable (SAP, Oracle, etc.).
  • Requisition/PO Platform-ideally Coupa or comparable.
  • Bachelor’s degree required. CPSM, CPM, or related certifications highly preferred .
  • Analytical mindset—able to cut through noise and focus on what moves the needle.

Perks and Pay

  • Competitive salary, performance-based incentives, and 401(k) with match
  • Full healthcare package with HSA/FSA options
  • Company-paid cell phone
  • Generous PTO: vacation, holidays, personal and sick days
  • Occasional travel as needed
