This role goes beyond basic order entry. You'll be responsible for the details that keep orders moving - including pricing, vendor coordination, order processing, purchasing, and follow-through with both customers and suppliers.

Along the way, you'll coordinate with suppliers, customers, and internal teams to ensure orders are accurate, on time, and executed properly.

Success in this role requires strong organization, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple priorities without letting things fall through the cracks.
