About the Role

We are looking for a Procurement Specialist to support the day-to-day operational procurement activities of one of our U.S.-based clients.

This is a hands-on procurement operations role focused on purchase order management, vendor coordination, purchasing support, and procurement administration. The adecuado candidate is comfortable independently managing a steady volume of procurement requests and has strong hands-on experience working within a procurement or ERP system.

This position is best suited for someone who enjoys the operational side of Procurement and can effectively coordinate with vendors and internal stakeholders in a fast-paced, remote environment.

Key Responsibilities

- Create, manage, update, and close Purchase Orders (POs) within the procurement/ERP system.
- Manage order confirmations and follow up with vendors regarding order and delivery status.
- Support vendor onboarding, including the collection and maintenance of required documentation and vendor information.
- Process and coordinate PO changes, updates, and closures.
- Assist in resolving purchasing, PO, and invoice-related issues in coordination with vendors and internal teams.
- Communicate directly with suppliers via email and phone as needed.
- Collect vendor quotes and supporting purchasing documentation.
- Follow up with internal requestors to obtain missing or incomplete information.
- Maintain accurate procurement records, trackers, vendor information, and supporting documentation.
- Provide general administrative and operational support across purchasing and procurement workflows.
- Independently manage and prioritize a consistent volume of procurement requests while ensuring timely follow-up and completion.

Qualifications





- Demonstrated hands-on experience in Procurement or Purchasing operations, particularly supporting day-to-day purchasing activities and PO management.
- Strong practical experience with Purchase Order creation and management.
- Hands-on experience with vendor onboarding, vendor follow-up, and purchasing workflows.
- Experience resolving PO, purchasing, delivery, and/or invoice discrepancies.
- Strong hands-on experience using a procurement or ERP system is required.
- NetSuite experience is highly preferred. Candidates without NetSuite experience should have extensive hands-on experience with another widely used ERP or procurement platform such as SAP, Oracle, Coupa, Ariba, or similar.
- Experience with system-based procurement processes; the role requires more than primarily manual, Excel, or email-based purchasing processes.
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
- Ability to independently manage multiple requests and priorities.
- Strong communication and follow-up skills when working with both vendors and internal stakeholders.
- Professional English communication skills, including the ability to communicate directly with U.S.-based suppliers by phone and email.
- Availability to maintain meaningful working-hour overlap with U.S. Pacific Time.

Nice to Have
