What You’ll Do

Lead and develop the purchasing team, setting clear priorities, coaching employees, and holding the team accountable for results.
Build strong supplier relationships and negotiate pricing, payment terms, lead times, and service expectations.
Improve product availability and fill rates by evaluating forecasts, replenishment practices, and minimum/maximum inventory levels.
Manage inventory investment, balancing customer demand with excess and slow-moving inventory.
Measure supplier performance through vendor scorecards and address quality, delivery, and availability concerns.
Identify alternative suppliers and respond proactively to shortages, market changes, and supply risks.
Partner with the Product Manager on new product introductions, product transitions, and discontinued items.
Maintain accurate purchasing and product data, including item setup, supplier information, and discrepancy resolution.
Strengthen KPI reporting using Excel, ERP data, and business intelligence tools to turn analysis into actionable recommendations.
Resolve purchasing issues across departments and escalate concerns professionally when needed to achieve results.
