  • Update and track procurement workflows and product timelines using ERP system in place.
  • Build vendor relationships and apply negotiation skills to secure favorable terms and delivery conditions.
  • Compile and deliver sales performance reports to vendors as needed.

Accounts Payable Support:

  • Enter credit card transactions into the AP system and categorize expenses appropriately.
  • Assist with vendor invoice verification and reconciliation, ensuring accuracy against POs and deliveries.
  • Support the month-end close process by preparing documentation and transaction records.
  • Maintain organized records of AP documentation for internal auditing and reporting purposes.
  • Communicate with vendors to resolve invoice discrepancies or payment status inquiries.

  • Proficiency with NetSuite, SmartSheets, and Microsoft Office Suite, especially Excel.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with a customer-first attitude.
  • High level of accuracy and efficiency in data entry and document management.
  • Solid organizational and multitasking abilities in a fast-paced environment.
  • Energetic and positive personality with a "get-it-done" mindset.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or Business Administration.
  • Familiarity with drop ship logistics, special order workflows, or customer program accounts.
