Position Description

The Procurement Specialist/Manager plays a critical role within the Procurement Operations team, supporting the transition from reactive system usage to a proactive, structured field operations model. This role is responsible for administering and managing the Company's fleet of Vehicles, the Field Service Management (FSM) platform - currently PowerFactors Drive - while also taking full ownership of the spare parts and inventory process across Origis’ utility-scale solar fleet.
