Location Batavia, Illinois Job Category Buying Position Type | Full-Time
Apply

As part of National Buying Services, you’ll work with a team to use innovation and hard work to acquire the products that our customers come to us for. It’s about more than finding the lowest price, it’s about supporting our Buying and support teams (Administration, Merchandising, Pricing, Quality Assurance, Analytics and more). We work hard to provide the best value and quality in everything we do.

Do you obsess over details and love ticking items off your to-do list? How would you feel being in charge of tracking every aspect of a job including multiple stakeholders like Suppliers, Buyers and Creative Agencies only to show up at a store, shopping for yourself, to see that product in store and knowing the journey it took to get here? Are you a highly organized individual that can understand process flow but also can pivot rapidly when sudden plans change? This role offers a unique blend of project/stakeholder management, creativity, operational excellence, process standardization, and thinking outside the box. If you’re ready to join the largest private label retailer for packaging design and play a pivotal role in shaping how our consumers shop our stores, apply today.
