Full Job Description

Job Overview:

The Buyer/Purchasing Specialist (Sales Support) is a hands-on purchasing professional responsible for day-to-day procurement and replenishment of assigned product categories in a fast-paced manufacturing and distribution environment. This role focuses on accurately executing purchase orders, coordinating with suppliers, providing inventory support, and ensuring ERP data accuracy to ensure materials and products are available to meet customer demand and internal operational needs.

This position is designed to formalize purchasing responsibilities that have historically been managed within the Sales function, improving consistency, visibility, and follow-through across purchasing activity, vendor communication, and delivery performance.

If you're a purchasing professional who likes to own your work — placing orders, staying on top of vendors, and keeping things moving — this might be the right fit. Bertolino Foods is a family-owned food manufacturing and distribution company in Peabody, MA, and we're growing our purchasing function to better support our sales and operations teams. We're looking for someone detail-oriented and dependable who wants to be a real part of how we keep things running.

Essential Duties & Responsibilities:

Purchasing & Order Execution

Create, release, and manage purchase orders for assigned products, including raw materials, packaging/components, and indirect supplies (as applicable).
Track purchase order confirmations, ship dates, delivery schedules, and lead times to maintain continuity of supply.
Drive supplier order acknowledgments and confirm promise dates to support customer commitments and operational priorities.
Expedite or adjust orders based on changing priorities, demand shifts, shortages, or supply constraints.
Ensure PO accuracy, including item details, quantities, pricing, lead times, and ordering policies (MOQ, pack size, order multiples, freight terms).

Supplier Coordination & Issue Resolution

Maintain professional working relationships with key suppliers to support consistent service and performance.
Follow up with vendors to resolve delays, shortages, substitutions, or service issues.
Monitor vendor reliability, including on-time delivery, fill rate, responsiveness, and pricing accuracy.
Escalate supply risks when needed and coordinate recovery plans with internal teams.

Inventory Support & Replenishment

Review inventory levels, usage trends, and system data to determine reorder quantities and timing.
Help prevent out-of-stock situations while balancing inventory targets and avoiding excess inventory.
Support cycle counts, inventory reviews, reconciliation activities, and data cleanup as needed.
Partner with warehouse and receiving teams to address inventory discrepancies and receiving variances.

ERP / System Accuracy & Documentation

Maintain accurate purchasing, vendor, and pricing records in the ERP/MRP system.
Update key purchasing parameters such as lead times, order multiples, and approved sourcing data (as assigned).
Keep purchasing documentation organized and audit-ready (POs, confirmations, communications, receipts).

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Work closely with Sales to support product availability, customer demand, and service expectations.
Coordinate with Production, Planning, Warehouse, and Receiving teams to align purchasing with operational needs.
Partner with Finance/Accounting/Accounts Payable to resolve invoice discrepancies, pricing variances, credits, and vendor disputes.

Compliance, Quality, & Company Standards

Ensure purchasing activities follow internal purchasing procedures and company policies.
Support quality expectations through proper product/vendor documentation and escalation when issues arise.
Maintain a high level of confidentiality and professionalism when handling vendor pricing and purchasing decisions. Improved communication flow between Sales, vendors, and operations

Required Qualifications:

2–4 years of experience in purchasing, buying, supply chain, inventory, or replenishment (manufacturing, distribution, wholesale, or warehouse environment preferred).
Hands-on experience placing and managing purchase orders (not only reporting/analysis).
Strong attention to detail, organization, and follow-through in a high-volume environment.
Ability to prioritize changing needs and respond with urgency when supply issues occur.
Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and comfort working in ERP/MRP systems.

Preferred Qualifications:

Associate or bachelor’s degree in supply chain, Business, Operations, or related field (or equivalent experience).
ERP/MRP experience (examples: SAP, Oracle, Epicor, Dynamics, Acumatica, NetSuite, Sage, etc.).
Experience supporting inventory control practices (FIFO, cycle counting, inventory adjustments).
Previous experience working closely with Sales and/or customer demand-driven purchasing.

Core Competencies:

Purchasing execution & follow-through
Vendor communication & relationship management
Inventory awareness and accuracy
Analytical thinking and problem-solving
Cross-functional collaboration
Systems discipline and data accuracy
Professional judgment and escalation awareness

Pay: $65,000.00 - $78,000.00 per year
