Verify supplier compliance with quotations, contracts, and purchase order requirements.
Coordinate domestic and international shipments, including import/export and U.S. Customs documentation.
Manage projects and priorities to meet deadlines and business objectives.
Build and maintain strong relationships with internal teams and external partners.
Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Business, Supply Chain Management, Operations, or a related field preferred; equivalent combination of education and 3–7 years of purchasing or sourcing experience will be considered.
3–5 years of experience in purchasing, materials management, supply chain, or operations preferred.
Strong interpersonal, teamwork, communication, and negotiation skills.
Ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities effectively.
Ability to read, analyze, and interpret contracts, quotations, financial reports, and legal documents.
Strong presentation and communication skills with the ability to interact with all levels of the organization.
