Handling formal bids from start to finish, including bid packet prep and document wrangling
Conducting cost analyses that would make any finance team swoon
Negotiating pricing with vendors without breaking a sweat
Supporting departments across the org with all their buying needs
Maintaining and vetting strong vendor relationships - you're part buyer, part detective
Collaborating with cross-functional teams and staying calm under pressure
Working magic in MS Office Suite and Workday's procurement functions
3+ years of purchasing experience , especially if you've got that AA or Bachelor's degree
Strong experience in buying, budgeting, and making every dollar count
You've danced with tight deadlines and lived to tell the tale
Stellar communication skills (you'll be chatting with vendors and internal teams)
Non-profit experience? That's a cherry on top
You'll play a key role in keeping things running smoothly for a mission-driven org
Variety! You'll work with multiple departments, vendors, and challenges
You'll be the go-to expert for all things purchasing - respected and relied on
A chance to do impactful work, not just place orders
