Position Title: Food Buyer

Position Summary:
We are a social enterprise on a mission to spread joy through food. We produce and deliver high volumes of meals spanning a diverse array of cuisines to every demographic in New York City. We are a rapidly growing organization and need a buyer who is passionate about sourcing the best product available, creating mutually beneficial relationships with vendors, and working collaboratively with others to create value for our customers and our organization. The ideal candidate knows how to source high quality food, has excellent negotiation skills, can quickly pivot whenever there is a shortage in food supply, and maintain longstanding relationships. This role will require commuting to our facilities in the Bronx and Queens.

You’ll love this role if you’re incredibly organized, detail oriented and have a drive for “getting things done!”
You have a “no job too small” mentality with an ability to effectively and professionally interface with our team members and clients.
We are a proud minority owned business that celebrates diversity, equity, and inclusion.

During this period, you'll dive into understanding our sourcing strategies and operational workflows, leveraging your existing connections and expertise to contribute meaningfully from day one. Building collaborative relationships with cross-functional teams, including production, inventory, and quality control, will be essential in gaining insights into our supply chain ecosystem.

Your attention to detail and organizational skills will be critical as you monitor product yields, analyze weekly food costs, and identify cost-saving opportunities.

Over the course of your first year, your success will be measured by your impact on our procurement processes, vendor relationships, and overall business performance. Leveraging your deep understanding of the produce industry, you'll proactively monitor market conditions to avoid price fluctuations and availability issues, while also identifying favorable purchasing opportunities. Your ability to find alternative sources for short or hard-to-find products will be instrumental in maintaining uninterrupted
supply chains and meeting production demands. By analyzing and owning weekly food costs, you'll ensure alignment with budgetary constraints while upholding quality standards. Additionally, your collaboration with Quality Control will ensure incoming products meet or exceed quality specifications, minimizing shrinkage and spoilage. By the end of your first year, you'll have established yourself as a trusted leader in our procurement team, driving efficiency, cost savings, and operational excellence.

As you continue to excel in sourcing the best products and fostering mutually beneficial vendor relationships, you'll have the chance to take on additional responsibilities and leadership roles. Whether it's spearheading new initiatives, mentoring junior team members, or contributing to cross-functional projects, your passion for excellence and collaborative spirit will set the stage for
continued success.
