Junior Buyer

If the answer is yes, then Future Electronics wants to hear from you! We are currently looking to employ Product Marketers to join our EMEA team at our headquarters in Egham, Surrey.

We know our employees are what make us great, which is why we constantly develop and motivate our talent with world-class organizational development to learn and achieve our goals together. Successful applicants will gain a highly competitive salary, full training, and a range of benefits including:

* Career Development and Progression
* Social Club and Events

Job Outline:

The role of the Junior Buyer is to place purchase orders with our suppliers to fulfill customer orders and maintain stock levels on top-selling devices. It is their responsibility to source and/or negotiate the best market price for the product and ensure it arrives at the right cost and at the right time. A key part of the role is to quickly resolve discrepancies at each stage in the order cycle to meet the customers' committed delivery date while minimizing inventory costs.

What the role involves:

* Place daily purchase orders with suppliers using the Inventory Management System (IMS)
* Ensure relevant paperwork and a customer credit line are in place prior to purchasing high-value/customer-specific products
* Review and authorize customer order changes and cancellations
* Review supplier purchase orders through IMS and reschedule or cancel as needed
* Resolve order price discrepancies with marketing/suppliers
* Address receiving discrepancies with EMEA Distribution Centre/Product Marketing
* Be the first point of contact for customer production line down resolution
* Work with sales, product marketing, and suppliers to reduce slow-moving inventory levels

Do you have:

* Previous purchasing experience (preferable but not essential)
* Ability to organize, prioritize, and approach tasks proactively
* Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
* Ability to identify flawed processes proactively and find solutions
* Ability to perform well under pressure and meet deadlines
* Flexibility and adaptability to different needs, situations, and markets

Headquartered in Montreal and operating in 150 locations across 40 countries, Future Electronics has earned an impressive reputation for outstanding service and efficient global supply chain solutions.

The company's success is built on close partnerships with suppliers and customers, and strong technical and commercial competencies throughout the design-production cycle.

Future Electronics offers knowledgeable sales teams, advanced engineering/design capabilities, award-winning customer service, comprehensive trade compliance, and the largest available-to-sell inventory in the world.

The company's mission is to Delight the Customer, providing high-level service including customer-specific programs and worldwide e-commerce support.

On September 14th, 2023, it was announced that Future Electronics would be joining forces with WT Microelectronics to deliver long-term value to stakeholders through the combination of two highly complementary organizations, which will continue to operate independently pending regulatory approvals.

Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion:

We are committed to promoting equality, diversity, and inclusion. We recruit the best person for the job regardless of age, race, color, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, or disability, creating an inclusive working environment for all employees.
