Here's an opportunity for a career upgrade! Our client wants to bring on someone with a strong administrative skill set (and ideally some baseline purchasing experience) for a position in purchasing. This is a growth-oriented position where the right candidate would certainly be in line to work their way upward.
The purchasing assistant's role looks like this:
- receiving, posting, and confirming orders for parts
- tracking parts orders and maintaining an order log
- preparing freight billing for parts
- properly filing parts records
It's a match for someone who is team oriented, since you'll interact with multiple departments; who is detailed and organized in record-keeping; and who has solid knowledge of MS Office, particularly Excel. You would be working at a stand-alone division of a Fortune 500 company, for a smaller-office feel with a big-company benefits package.
