Job description

Specialty Tile Products is looking for an organized, analytical, and resourceful professional to join our team as a Procurement Supervisor. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving problems, building strong supplier relationships, managing complex details, and finding smarter ways to balance inventory, cost, service, and profitability.

As Procurement Supervisor, you'll oversee key purchasing and inventory activities across our business, including domestic procurement, international imports, supplier management, replenishment, and logistics coordination. You'll work closely with our Procurement, Product, Pricing, Operations, and Sales teams to make sure we have the right products in the right place at the right time, without losing sight of inventory turns, freight costs, margins, or customer needs. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who can manage the day-to-day details while also looking ahead, identifying risks, improving processes, and helping our procurement operation run more efficiently.

What You'll Do

• Oversee the domestic purchasing process, including purchase orders, confirmations, material sourcing, delivery scheduling, returns, claims, and drop shipments
• Manage end-to-end international imports, from building and releasing containers through customs clearance and final delivery
• Coordinate with suppliers, freight forwarders, customs brokers, carriers, and third-party logistics providers
• Review import documentation, including bills of lading, commercial invoices, and packing lists
• Build and maintain strong supplier relationships and negotiate pricing, terms, and purchasing opportunities that support company profitability
• Identify potential supply-chain risks and develop solutions or alternative sourcing strategies when needed
• Improve margins through thoughtful purchasing practices, including vendor negotiations, bulk discounts, freight optimization, order consolidation, and PO accuracy
• Manage replenishment and stock profiles across our warehouses, balancing customer demand with inventory turns, budget, lead times, and available warehouse space
• Maintain stock profile and replenishment settings in ERP
• Partner with Product Managers on product lifecycle changes and improvements to inventory strategy
• Support and develop the procurement team, creating clear expectations and helping the department operate efficiently and collaboratively

What We're Looking For

The right person for this role is organized, commercially minded, proactive, and comfortable managing a lot of moving pieces. You should be able to zoom into the details when necessary without losing sight of the larger business impact.

You'll be a strong fit if you have:

• Experience in purchasing, procurement, inventory management, supply chain, logistics, or a related field
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously
• Excellent follow-through and attention to detail
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with suppliers, customers, and internal teams
• Confidence negotiating with suppliers and making decisions with cost and profitability in mind
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to respond quickly when supply-chain issues arise
• An analytical approach to inventory, replenishment, purchasing, and cost management
• A strong customer-service mindset, even when working primarily behind the scenes
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications
• Experience with Acumatica is an asset, but not required.
• Experience working with imports, freight, customs documentation, building materials, tile and stone, or other inventory-intensive distribution businesses would also be valuable.

Location & Schedule

This is a predominantly office-based position with the flexibility to work remotely up to two days per week.

The role may be based in any of our offices:

• Buckhead, Georgia
• Norcross, Georgia

The Procurement Supervisor will meet regularly with the Procurement team, both in person and via Teams, and will collaborate with other departments on a regular schedule. Some travel may be required.

This position is a middle management position.

Our benefits include:

• Health insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off
• Hybrid work flexibility
• Additional company benefits and employee programs
