Company Overview
Roskill Sheetmetal Works is a subsidiary of the Roskill Group (roskill.co.nz), a well-
established New Zealand construction and manufacturing group. Roskill Sheetmetal Works
specialises in metal product processing, custom sheet-metal fabrication, and the production and installation of building components.
We have been a long-term supplier to commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and
municipal infrastructure projects, delivering end-to-end services from design support and
fabrication to on-site installation. Our product portfolio includes roofing and cladding
systems, facade assemblies, ventilation and ducting solutions, and a wide range of industrial metal products.
As market competition intensifies and demand grows for more durable, low-carbon, and
innovative construction materials, we are accelerating our shift toward advanced sustainable building solutions. To support this strategy, we are recruiting a Procurement Manager (Innovated Building Materials).
Job Summary
The Procurement Manager (Innovated Building Materials) will lead Roskill Sheetmetal
Works’ global sourcing and procurement of next-generation sustainable building materials.
This role is central to identifying, evaluating, and securing high-performance materials that
are lightweight, energy-efficient, low-maintenance, and environmentally responsible—then
enabling their real-world application in our fabrication, construction, and installation projects.
By introducing world-leading innovative materials into our product and project pipeline, this
position will help reduce manufacturing and installation costs, extend product life cycles, and lower long-term maintenance requirements—strengthening our competitive edge and
supporting Roskill’s sustainable growth vision.
Key Responsibilities
Strategic Sourcing \& Supplier Development
Identify and build global supply channels for innovative and green building materials,
including high-durability coated metals, eco-composites, recycled-content materials, and energy-saving construction products.
Develop long-term supplier partnerships and evaluate suppliers based on technical

Lead supplier audits, qualification processes, and periodic performance reviews.
Material Evaluation \& Technical Procurement
Collaborate with engineering and production teams to define technical specifications and performance requirements for new materials.
Conduct comparative analysis of materials (cost, durability, environmental impact,
installation feasibility, lifecycle value).
Support pilot trials and scale-up adoption of approved materials into manufacturing and project delivery.
Procurement \& Cost Optimization
Manage the end-to-end procurement cycle: forecasting, tendering, negotiation,
contracting, ordering, logistics coordination, and inventory control.
Negotiate pricing and terms to lower total cost of ownership while maintaining quality
and delivery reliability.
Drive cost-reduction initiatives through alternative sourcing, material substitution, and
process optimisation.
Project \& Stakeholder Management
Provide procurement leadership for commercial, industrial, and municipal construction

Monitor regulatory standards and industry trends related to sustainable/innovative
construction materials.
Maintain procurement documentation and ensure full compliance with quality, health \& safety, and ESG requirements.
