Purchaser

💰 Tài chính

Purchasers work with their organization or business to supervise and coordinate the buying of finished products, materials and services in a professionally coordinated way. Their responsibilities also include monitoring purchasing expenses and keeping track of accounts and contracts, as well as monitoring inventory, so they know when to top up supplies or buy specific goods and services. For the most part, purchasers conduct their work in-house or in an office context, but they may also visit their sales sources for in-person assessments. Sometimes, purchasers personally interview vendors to ensure product or service quality. In general, their job requires working closely with suppliers for the sake of proper quality control.
