Job Description

**About Us**

We are an 8-figure food-as-medicine company delivering premium, ready-to-eat meals to health-conscious families across the US. We operate our own production kitchen, courier network, and national shipping programs — and we're obsessed with quality, sustainability, and zero food waste.

We're profitable, disciplined, and vertically integrated. No growth-at-all-costs mindset here — just tight unit economics, operational excellence, and a team that values clear thinking over politics.

**The Role**

We're looking for a Procurement Specialist to own packaging and materials end-to-end. Your mission: keep the right materials in the right places, at the right time and cost, with no preventable emergencies.

This is a hands-on, spreadsheet-heavy role. No ERP. You'll operate and improve Google Sheets trackers and playbooks that need to be accurate, clean, and ready for anyone to pick up.

**What You'll Do**

* Maintain par levels and weeks-of-cover for packaging SKUs (liners, ice packs, corrugate, jars, lids, labels, inserts) across HQ and 3PL
* Place weekly and monthly POs on a clear cadence with accurate lead times
* Track inbound shipments and reconcile receipts with POs and vendor packing lists
* Coordinate with warehouse and 3PL partners on pallet counts, storage, and accessorial fees
* Maintain a live packaging cost model — cost per order and per box — weekly
* Benchmark top SKUs twice yearly, run RFQs, and build landed-cost comparisons
* Manage blanket POs and pallet-based storage to avoid dead inventory
* Keep the procurement playbook up to date — documentation a new hire can follow
* Send a short daily written update on orders, arrivals, issues, and upcoming risks

**You're a Great Fit If You**

* Have 2–4 years in procurement, purchasing, or supply chain — packaging or perishable exposure preferred
* Are strong in Google Sheets or Excel and comfortable without an ERP
* Are calm, structured, and reliable — you love checklists and catching issues early
* Communicate directly and clearly in writing
* Are curious about how procurement decisions roll up into COGS and margin

**This Isn't the Role For You If You**

* Want a path into marketing, product, or strategy
* Are uncomfortable owning outcomes end-to-end
* Are sloppy with documentation or follow-through
