The Opportunity

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.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and maintain purchase orders from creation through vendor confirmation, receipt, reconciliation and closure.
• Create accurate POs in the ERP and ensure pricing, quantities, terms, locations and supporting documentation are correct.
• Monitor open POs, expected delivery dates, partial shipments, backorders, cancellations and overdue orders.
• Follow up with suppliers and internal teams to keep PO status and expected receipt information current.
• Work closely with Receiving to investigate shortages, overages, substitutions and other receiving discrepancies.
• Partner with Finance/AP to resolve PO, item receipt and vendor bill mismatches and reduce downstream cleanup.
• 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.
• Managing transfer orders to retail locations
• Providing hands-on operational support as needed to assist with catch-up
• Where experience allows, support replenishment purchasing by reviewing reorder points, stock levels, lead times and purchasing requirements and creating POs accordingly.

• 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.
• Comfort investigating discrepancies and following issues through to resolution rather than simply identifying them.
• Strong Excel skills and experience working in an ERP system; NetSuite experience is a strong 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.
