2. Purchasing & Procurement Execution

• Convert planned orders into purchase orders (POs) and issue them to approved vendors.

• Track and expedite open orders to guarantee on-time delivery; proactively resolve shipment delays or discrepancies.

• Review quantity mismatches on invoices and collaborate with Accounts Payable and warehouse teams to resolve them.

3. Supplier Management & Coordination

• Evaluate supplier performance based on KPIs such as On-Time In-Full (OTIF) delivery and lead-time adherence.

• Maintain routine communication with vendors regarding order status, production schedules, and capacity constraints.

• Identify alternative sourcing options to mitigate supply chain risks and logistics dependencies.

4. Inventory Optimization

• Monitor inventory health, identifying slow-moving, obsolete, or excess stock (SLOB).

• Implement inventory control strategies (e.g., Just-In-Time, Kanban, ABC analysis) to maximize operational flow.

• Participate in or lead cycle counting and annual physical inventory audits.

• You have sharp analytical thinking, exceptional problem-solving abilities in fast-paced enviroment, strong coordination skills, and clear communication.

• You are fluent in English (minimum B2 level).
