JOB DESCRIPTION
Solving challenges is the very foundation of who we are.
After all, in the beginning, our founder, sea captain Robert Fergusson, didn't particularly care about paint.
When he founded our company in 1921, he just wanted to keep his ship intact and stumbled upon a valuable solution.
Today, that discovery is Rust-Oleum Corporation.
The same passion that drove the Captain to spend his next few years creating the world's first rust-preventative paint still drives us today.
When we see a problem, we work diligently until we've perfected a solution, which has led to some of the most cutting edge, durable and innovative products in the industry.
Our creative and talented team of over 2000 people across every corner of the world, help us remain the global leader in protective paints and coatings for both home and industry.
The primary result expected from the Buyer will be to procure raw materials or components for use in manufacture of paint and related products by analyzing past buying trends, production records, price, and quality of merchandise to determine value and yield; selecting, ordering, and authorizing payment for merchandise according to contractual agreements, and planning, or coordinating the activities of buyers and related workers involved in purchasing materials, products, and services.
Typical tasks for this position include (but are not limited to) the following:
Negotiate prices, discount terms and transportation arrangements for merchandise.
Manage the department for which they buy.
Confer with sales and purchasing personnel to obtain information about customer needs and preferences.
Examine, select, order, and purchase at the most favorable price merchandise consistent with quality, quantity, specification requirements and other factors.
Analyze and monitor sales records, trends and economic conditions to anticipate consumer buying patterns and determine what the company will sell and how much inventory is needed.
Set or recommend mark-up rates, mark-down rates, and selling prices for merchandise.
Authorize payment of invoices or return of merchandise.
Interview and work closely with vendors to obtain and develop desired products.
Responsibilities/Expectations:
Communicate with Supervisors and peers: provide information to supervisors and co-workers in written form or in person.
Maintain a good record of attendance and punctuality.
Learn all manual tasks performed within the department.
Perform tasks assigned using specific operating procedures, and following department specific quality control processes and procedures.
Treat people with dignity and respect.
Conduct all business with integrity.
Adhere to Rust-Oleum Corporation Quality principles and participate in all departmental and company-wide Quality activities.
Requirements:
SAP or other ERP experience (preferably in inventory management, warehouse management, or buying).
Vocational school training, associate's degree, or equivalent hands-on experience in purchasing or procurement in a manufacturing environment.
From big benefits to small, we take care of our associates! After 30 days of employment, you will be eligible for a benefits package that includes medical, dental, life, disability and business travel insurance, flexible spending accounts, EAP, stock purchases and vacation/sick days/parental leave.
We also offer a 401(k) plan after three months of employment.
Associates are vested in the RPM Pension plan after completing five years of service.
Rust-Oleum offers (9.5) paid holidays and (2) floating holidays per year.
You are also eligible to earn three weeks of vacation on an annualized basis.
Rust-Oleum is an equal opportunity employer.
Employment selection and related decisions are made without regard to sex, race, age, disability, religion, national origin, color, or any other protected class
Internal Applicants: If you have been in your current position for one year (unless waived by your Manager), and meet the position requirements, you are welcome to apply for this position.
