COST CONTROL WHAT YOU'LL DO

Review replenishment and operational needs, then create and manage accurate purchase orders. Source products, obtain and compare quotes, and negotiate pricing, freight, terms, and availability. Manage vendor relationships, lead times, confirmations, backorders, and open purchase orders. Balance product availability with cost control and the need to avoid unnecessary inventory. Resolve vendor shortages, overages, damages, pricing issues, returns, credits, and replacements. Maintain purchasing data in NetSuite and communicate supply issues across GSS departments.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

2+ years in purchasing, procurement, supply chain, or a related role. Industrial or oilfield product purchasing and NetSuite experience preferred. Strong negotiation, communication, analytical, organization, and follow-through skills.

PURCHASING OWNS THE ORDER

Inventory identifies accurate stock levels and replenishment needs. Purchasing selects the source, negotiates the terms, issues the purchase order, and manages the vendor through completion.
