Purchasing Officer

Are you a detail-oriented supply chain professional with a passion for planning, forecasting, and operational excellence?

• Execute daily stock ordering and analysis, while proactively monitoring order statuses and managing back-orders to mitigate any supply risks.

• Process supplier quotes and maintain accurate pricing data within the system, ensuring strict adherence to planning guidelines and customer commitments.

• Manage supplier communications and efficiently resolve delivery issues or returns to minimise potential supply chain disruptions.

• Collaborate cross-functionally with Sales, Warehouse, and Quality Control (QC) teams to provide real-time inbound stock updates, resolve discrepancies, and address invoice queries.
