A non-exhaustive list of the things we’re pro: productivity, produce, proficiency, protractors (just us?), pro-blem solving, and procurement. Coincidentally, we are looking for a proactive procurement specialist to join our team of prolific professionals. What we’d love to know is: on a scale of 1 to “pro,” how do you fit the bill? We’re looking for a spritely individual who’s detail-oriented, passionate about sourcing the best of the best, and fosters evergreen relationships everywhere you go.

About you:

Your organizational skills are stronger than Arnold Schwarzenegger and The Rock... combined.
Conducting research and building relationships is your cup of tea/tumbler of cold brew/cold glass of celery juice, or whatever drink you choose.
You’ve got a curious and results-driven mindset.
You’re an excellent negotiator with in-depth knowledge of supply chain structures.
‘Highly motivated with the ability to multitask’ is either your bio on LinkedIn, or a sticky note on your mirror that you read to yourself every morning.
You demonstrate effective communication skills to manage multiple stakeholders.
You’re a team player with the ability to also work independently to meet fixed deadlines, goals and objectives.
Your mom, friends, family, and unbiased strangers would all agree that you’re a ‘cool cat’ that inserts fun into every task, activity, and conversation.

What you will do:

Purchase materials and services that align with quantity, quality, timing, and cost expectations.
Generate purchase orders, review and approve invoices, and manage payment conditions.
Support new product trials by coordinating material procurement.
Track and monitor inventory levels to maintain appropriate supply.
Collaborate with the Quality team to qualify new suppliers under Siete’s supplier verification requirements.
Build and maintain strong relationships with key suppliers.
Act as the primary point of contact for internal partners, addressing and resolving issues related to delays or quality concerns.
Drive cost savings through supplier and item cost optimization, negotiations, and RFP support.
Stay informed on market trends, pricing fluctuations, and supply chain risks.
Conduct quarterly price reviews with key external partners, analyzing cost fluctuations to support Procurement’s budget.
Travel an average of 15% of the time.

Your experience:

2+ years of experience working in procurement and/or other relevant supply chain roles is required.
Understanding of the CPG industry and food manufacturing is preferred.
Proficiency in Excel, including comfort with vlookups and pivot tables is required.
Experience working in ERP systems is a plus.
