HockeyStickMan is looking for an experienced, detail-oriented Procurement Specialist to strengthen the day-to-day discipline and control of our purchasing process. The primary focus of this role is maintaining the integrity of the purchase order lifecycle - ensuring that purchase orders accurately reflect what was ordered, what is still expected, what has been received, and what has changed through to final reconciliation and closure. This is a hands-on role that works closely with Procurement, Receiving, Inventory and Finance.

We are looking for someone who understands that creating a PO is only the beginning of the process and who takes ownership of keeping purchasing data accurate, current and reliable. Own and maintain purchase orders from creation through vendor confirmation, receipt, reconciliation and closure. Monitor open POs, expected delivery dates, partial shipments, backorders, cancellations and overdue orders.

Review and resolve stale or incomplete POs so that open-order data accurately represents outstanding commitments. Help establish and document consistent purchasing processes, controls and accountability across the business. Support supplier communication, purchasing documentation and vendor record accuracy.

Where experience allows, support replenishment purchasing by reviewing reorder points, stock levels,



lead times and purchasing requirements and creating POs accordingly.

Position: Procurement Specialist 2+ years of relevant experience in procurement, purchasing, inventory control, supply chain or a similar environment, with meaningful hands-on PO experience. ~ Demonstrated understanding of the full PO lifecycle, including creation, open-order management, receiving discrepancies and reconciliation. ~ Strong attention to detail and a desire to keep ERP data accurate and complete. ~ Strong Excel skills and experience working in an ERP system; NetSuite experience is a robust asset. ~ Clear communication skills and the ability to work effectively with vendors, warehouse/receiving teams and Finance. ~ Experience with retail, wholesale, distribution or e-commerce inventory is an asset. ~ Experience using reorder points, inventory levels, sales history or lead times to support replenishment purchasing is an asset. Open POs are current, accurate and trusted by Procurement, Inventory, Operations and Finance. Finance spends less time investigating historical purchasing transactions and correcting preventable issues.

Purchasing processes become more consistent, documented and scalable as HockeyStickMan grows. Phone:
