Purchasing & Order Operations Coordinator
The role
We’re hiring a detail-obsessed coordinator to run day-to-day purchasing and order administration. You’ll create and track purchase orders (POs), enter customer sales orders into our system, coordinate purchasing with manufacturers, and issue invoices—accurately, on time, every day. This is a back-office, operations role that requires real-time availability during U.S. business hours and close collaboration with our internal team.
What you’ll do
● PO creation & vendor coordination
○ Create POs for approved items; ensure pricing, terms, MOQs, and ship-to details are correct.
○ Follow up with manufacturers on lead times, ship dates, and on-time delivery; flag risks early and help unblock delays.
○ Support light negotiations on price/expedites under predefined guidelines.
● Customer order entry & maintenance
○ Enter customer orders in the system with precise SKUs, variants, quantities, and dates.
○ Validate availability, confirm acknowledgements, and keep order status current.
● Purchasing & inventory support
○ Calculate component needs (e.g., stone counts per unit × order qty + breakage/wastage %).
○ Prepare simple allocation/shortage reports and recommend reorders.
● Invoicing & documentation
○ Generate accurate invoices upon shipment or milestone; ensure terms, taxes, and freight rules are applied.
○ Maintain clean, auditable records (POs, SOs, invoices, packing lists).
● Daily collaboration
○ Be online and responsive 9–6 ET; coordinate live with the team via chat/meetings.
○ Provide end-of-day updates on open POs, late items, and action items
