  • Track market trends, component shortages, allocations, and pricing fluctuations

  • Maintain accurate, up-to-date records of sourcing activity in the company's systems

  • Collaborate with purchasing, quality, and operations teams to ensure smooth order fulfillment

  • Respond quickly to time-sensitive sourcing requests in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment

What We're Looking For

  • 3–10 years of experience specifically in electronic components sourcing or procurement within the independent distribution industry

  • A proven track record of hunting down hard-to-find, short lead-time, and allocated components

  • An existing network of suppliers and industry contacts built through hands-on experience in the space

  • The mindset to thrive in a fast-paced, competitive, deadline-driven environment

  • Strong negotiation skills and a resourceful, problem-solving approach

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy

  • Proficiency with CRM, ERP, or sourcing/reporting systems

  • Ability to work well independently and as part of a team

  • Must have the legal right to work in the country of the office applied to (Tamarac, Florida / Warsaw, Poland / London, UK) without company visa sponsorship; relocation support may be considered for the right candidate

What We Offer

  • Competitive base salary

  • Opportunity to deepen industry expertise within a global distribution business

  • Exposure to international purchasing, sales, and operations teams

  • Clear path for growth within a stable, respected company with 25+ years of global operations

  • Health, dental, and vision insurance (location-dependent)

  • Paid time off and company holidays

If you know how to hunt for hard-to-find parts, have the network to back it up, and thrive in a fast-paced independent distribution environment - we want to hear from you.
