Marr Contracting are world leaders in the design and delivery of heavy lift luffing tower cranes, providing complex crane solutions and services across Australia and around the world. We don't just supply cranes — we solve problems others can't.
With close to 100 years of family-owned heritage, Marr has built a reputation for delivering on the most challenging projects in the construction, infrastructure, energy and industrial sectors. Our success comes from combining world-class equipment with practical thinking, deep expertise and people who take ownership.
Our culture is built on trust, safety, teamwork and innovation. We back our people to make decisions, solve problems and contribute to the ongoing success of the business.
Why we need you
We are looking for a Procurement Specialist to join our Supply Chain, Procurement and Logistics team based in Sefton, Sydney.
This is far more than a purchasing role.
You will be responsible for sourcing critical goods and services that support Marr's crane fleet, workshops, project operations and corporate functions. You'll partner closely with operations, engineering, projects, HSEQ and finance teams to ensure the business has the right suppliers, materials, equipment and services in place to support protected and successful project delivery.
You will play an important role in balancing cost, quality, risk, delivery and supplier performance while helping strengthen procurement governance and commercial discipline across the business.
This role also provides exposure to global operations and supply requirements as Marr continues to support projects internationally.
You will be accountable for:
End-to-end sourcing and procurement activities
Supplier identification, evaluation and performance management
Commercial analysis and negotiation of favourable supply agreements




Managing purchase orders and procurement processes through to delivery
Supporting procurement governance, compliance and risk management
Building strong internal stakeholder and supplier relationships
Identifying opportunities to improve value, reduce costs and strengthen supply continuity
Supporting procurement initiatives across Australia and broader global operations where required
What we're looking for
You are a commercially minded procurement professional who enjoys solving problems, influencing outcomes and working closely with operational stakeholders.
You understand that procurement is about much more than purchasing. You know how to balance competing priorities, evaluate supplier capability, manage commercial risk and deliver practical solutions that keep projects moving.
You may come from construction, engineering, heavy equipment, industrial services, manufacturing, infrastructure, logistics or project-based environments. Most importantly, you enjoy operating in a rapid-paced business where your decisions genuinely make a difference.
You know how to:
Build strong supplier relationships
Negotiate commercially sound outcomes
Analyse costs, pricing and market opportunities
Manage multiple competing priorities
Communicate effectively with operational and technical stakeholders
Balance commercial outcomes with safety, quality and service requirements
Improve systems, processes and procurement performance




Take ownership and deliver results in dynamic environments
Your keys to success
Demonstrated experience in procurement, purchasing, supply chain or senior buyer positions
Proven experience sourcing goods and services and managing supplier relationships
Strong commercial acumen and negotiation capability
Experience evaluating suppliers, pricing structures, lead times and total cost considerations
Sound understanding of procurement governance, contracts and commercial risk
Experience using ERP or purchasing systems
Strong analytical, stakeholder management and communication skills
Ability to work independently whilst collaborating effectively across multiple business functions
Experience within construction, engineering, manufacturing, fabrication, heavy equipment, industrial services or project environments will be highly regarded
Professional qualifications or memberships such as CIPS are advantageous but not essential
What you'll get in return
At Marr, you'll join a professional, supportive and highly capable team and have the opportunity to contribute directly to some of the most technically challenging projects in Australia and internationally.
You'll have genuine ownership, the ability to influence commercial outcomes, exposure to senior stakeholders and suppliers, and the opportunity to grow your procurement career within a globally recognised engineering and construction business.
