Columbia makes very good well made winter coats, I like them, but they can be expensive new or used. Knock-offs are less expensive. Used or obsolete military field-jackets are often very good too.
In Minnesota old snowmobile jakets make good coats for working in +10F winter weather.
They are usually: light weight; waist length; have a tough nylon wind-proof outer jacket; high warm tight fitting collar when zipped all the way up; many pockets; and a warm cloth/thinsulate zip-out liner jacket that can be used alone. Leather snowmobile jackets are heavier and more expensive, I"ve never used one.
The downsides are: no hood (helmet); only waist length (sit while riding); cut big for over heavy shirts and bib snow pants; and often loud ugly colors with reflective piping.
It sounds like an outer jacket alone could work well for you at warmer temperatures.
Use a good cap and a coat size big enough to wear over a hooded sweatshirt and snow pants in windy -0F weather.
