Procurement & Supplier Relations Specialist

Do You Enjoy Talking to People and Finding a Better Deal?

At DBNC Group, we're looking for someone who loves building relationships, enjoys solving problems, and isn't afraid to pick up the phone.

This isn't a purchasing administrator role where you'll spend your day processing purchase orders.

We're looking for someone who enjoys speaking with suppliers, negotiating better pricing, comparing options, and finding smarter ways to buy. You'll play an important role in helping our business save money, build long-term supplier relationships, and keep projects moving.

You don't need years of procurement experience to succeed here.

If you're naturally personable, organized, persistent, and enjoy the challenge of getting the best value, we'd much rather teach you procurement than try to teach someone how to build rapport.

About DBNC Group

DBNC Group is a third-generation family business with interests across construction, self-storage, real estate, software and hospitality.

You'll work directly with company leadership, where your ideas are heard and your efforts have a visible impact. We value people who take ownership, look for practical improvements, and genuinely care about doing things better.

Our culture is simple:

Work Hard. Play Hard. Rest Hard.

We work with urgency, celebrate successes together, and believe people perform best when they enjoy coming to work.

What You'll Be Doing

Every day is different, but your responsibilities will include:

• Building strong relationships with suppliers through regular phone and email communication.
• Negotiating pricing, delivery schedules, and purchasing terms.
• Researching products and sourcing new suppliers to improve value.
• Comparing quotes and recommending the best purchasing options.
• Following up on outstanding quotes, orders, and supplier commitments.
• Coordinating local and overseas purchases to keep projects moving.
• Working alongside our international team to manage overseas supplier communications and order progress.
• Keeping purchasing records, supplier information, and order tracking organized and up to date.
• Looking for opportunities to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and strengthen our supplier network.
• Helping improve procurement processes as our business continues to grow.

You're Probably a Great Fit If...

• You genuinely enjoy speaking with people.
• You build rapport quickly and leave a positive impression.
• You're confident and professional on the phone.
• You enjoy negotiating and aren't afraid to ask for a better price.
