Working within Oracle EBS Alice and established approval controls, the MOR Buyer helps ensure required materials, components, services, and operating supplies are available to support production, warehouse operations, and site execution.

Key Responsibilities

Review, validate, and process approved Material Order Requests from Operations, Materials, Warehouse, Engineering, Quality, Maintenance, Facilities, and other Pelzer functions.

Confirm requests include the correct part number, description, quantity, required-by date, cost center, project or job reference, supplier information, and required approvals before purchase order creation.

Create and maintain purchase orders in Oracle EBS Alice in accordance with Pelzer purchasing procedures, approval limits, and SOX requirements.

Ensure purchase orders are structured correctly for the applicable Pelzer plant, ship-to location, organization, and receiving process.

Work with requestors, Buyers, Sourcing Leads, and Materials leadership to resolve incomplete, duplicated, unclear, or non-compliant requests before release.

Obtain supplier quotations and confirm pricing, lead time, freight terms, minimum order quantities, and delivery commitments when required.

Communicate purchase order details and delivery expectations clearly to suppliers and internal stakeholders.

Monitor open MOR-related purchase orders and follow up on acknowledgements, promised dates, and delivery status.

Escalate supplier delays, pricing changes, quantity discrepancies, and other risks that may affect production, warehouse execution, or operational readiness.

Coordinate with Receiving, Warehouse, Accounts Payable, and requestors to resolve purchase order, receipt, invoice, pricing, and quantity discrepancies.

Maintain accurate purchase order notes, supplier confirmations, request documentation, and supporting records within the required systems or shared files.

Follow Pelzer controls for non-standard, emergency, or expedite purchases and avoid using temporary or generic purchasing methods without proper approval.

Support purchase order cleanup, closure, cancellation, and data correction activities to maintain accurate open-order reporting.

Provide status updates and basic reporting on MOR volume, open requests, supplier commitments, overdue orders, and unresolved exceptions.

Support continuous improvement of the MOR process by identifying recurring request errors, approval gaps, receiving issues, and opportunities to standardize purchasing practices across P1, P2, and P3.

Cross-Functional Relationships

Partner with Materials Managers, Buyers, Planner/Buyers, Sourcing Leads, and Production Planning to confirm purchasing priorities and ownership.

Work closely with Operations, Engineering, Quality, Maintenance, Facilities, Finance, Accounts Payable, Logistics, and Warehouse teams across the Pelzer campus.

Develop professional supplier relationships that support timely acknowledgement, accurate data exchange, and prompt issue resolution.

Provide clear communication when a request cannot be processed because of missing information, incorrect system data, insufficient approval, or conflict with an existing purchase order.

Systems and Process Requirements

Ability to learn and work effectively in Oracle EBS Alice for purchase order creation, maintenance, and status review.

Working knowledge of Microsoft Excel, Outlook, Teams, and shared reporting tools.

Ability to understand basic ERP purchasing and receiving transactions, supplier promise dates, purchase order status, and open-order reporting.

Familiarity with Oracle PLM/PD Cloud, E2Open, CyberPlan, or related systems is beneficial but not required.

Commitment to accurate system transactions, document retention, approval compliance, and standardized processes across the Pelzer multi-plant operation.

Qualifications and Experience

Skills and Competencies

Strong attention to detail and accuracy when entering part numbers, quantities, prices, dates, account information, and supplier data.

Ability to manage a high volume of requests while prioritizing urgent operational needs and maintaining process discipline.

Effective written and verbal communication with internal teams and suppliers.
