Specified Technical Sales jobs

Innoflo Solutions Inc. is looking for an experienced Project Buyer who knows industrial products, understands the realities of project-based purchasing, and takes ownership of getting the right material where it needs to be, when it needs to be there.

You'll source technical products, work from specifications and BOMs, negotiate with suppliers, find alternatives, manage purchase orders and stay ahead of supply problems before they affect a project.

What You'll Own

• Purchase valves, fittings, pumps, pipe, instrumentation, electrical components, mechanical parts and other equipment for industrial projects.
• Review project requirements, BOMs, drawings, specifications and data sheets to make sure we're buying the right product.
• Source products and identify suitable alternatives when the specified item isn't available, is cost-prohibitive or won't arrive in time.
• Support both project purchasing and inventory requirements.
• Request and compare supplier quotations based on total value, including price, availability, quality, freight, lead time and technical compliance.
• Negotiate pricing, lead times and terms.
• Recommend suppliers and purchasing options based on what's best for the project and the business.
• Build strong supplier relationships while holding vendors accountable for their commitments.
• Create and manage accurate purchase orders in our ERP system.
• Confirm pricing, quantities, specifications and delivery dates.
• Track open orders and expedite before something becomes late.
• Coordinate with suppliers, carriers, Warehouse, Projects, Operations and Sales to keep critical materials moving.

What we are seeking:

• Has 2+ years of hands-on industrial purchasing or buying experience.
• Has purchased technical products, equipment or components.
• Can confidently work with BOMs, drawings, specifications or data sheets.
• Understands how purchasing decisions affect project schedules.
• Is comfortable negotiating and pushing suppliers for better pricing or delivery.
• Follows up without needing to be reminded.
• Can manage several changing priorities without losing accuracy.
• Has experience using an ERP system. Microsoft Business Central experience is an asset.

The Kind of Person Who Will Thrive Here:

· You're detailed and efficient.

· You're comfortable picking up the phone and pushing for an answer.

· You notice when something doesn't line up and investigate it.

· You can be firm with a supplier without damaging the relationship.

· You'd rather get ahead of a problem than explain afterward why something didn't arrive.

· Some days will be predictable. Other days, three project priorities may change before lunch.
