Primary Responsibility
Reporting to the Head Buyer, this position will be responsible for day to day procurement of both raw materials, and finished product for re-sale. Finished products will primarily include plant material, so some horticulture knowledge is hugely helpful, although not a requirement with previous buying experience. The successful candidate will have excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, negotiation skills, be flexible and willing to jump in and learn. We are a small but very busy group looking to expand, and we need a knowledgeable, dynamic individual to help us get there!
