Become a supplier whisperer: Build strong relationships with vendors to ensure reliable deliveries and top-quality products. Negotiate contracts and pricing that benefit both us and our suppliers.
Quality hawk: Ensure all ingredients meet our strict quality standards, keeping your furry friends safe and healthy.
Order with precision: Generate accurate purchase orders, keeping track of everything we need to keep production running smoothly.
Team player extraordinaire: Collaborate with different departments, from production to quality assurance, to make sure everything runs like clockwork.
Data whiz: Utilize inventory management systems to track stock levels and make informed decisions.
Stay compliant: Ensure our procurement practices adhere to all regulations and industry standards.
Strategic thinker: Help us plan for future growth by providing insights and recommendations on procurement and inventory management.
Cost-saving champion: Always be on the lookout for ways to save money and improve efficiency in our procurement processes.
What you'll bring to the table:

Bachelor's degree in supply chain management, business administration, or a related field (a plus, but not mandatory).
Proven experience in procurement, purchasing, or inventory management (ideally in the food industry).
Strong negotiation skills and the ability to build lasting relationships with suppliers.
Proficiency in inventory management systems and ERP software (experience with Syspro is a bonus!).
Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with a keen eye for detail.
Top-notch communication and interpersonal skills to collaborate effectively across teams.
Bonus points if you have:

Experience finding and qualifying new suppliers.
A track record of negotiating winning deals with vendors.
An understanding of market trends and how they impact procurement decisions.
Why you'll love this opportunity:

Competitive compensation and benefits package.
Make a real difference for pets and their owners.
Join a passionate and growing team.
Work in a fun and fast-paced environment.
Enjoy opportunities for professional development.
Ready to put your love for pets and your procurement skills to the test? Apply today!
