Purchasing Agent

Full-time
 

Job Description

- Monday: In-office coordination with the purchasing and construction teams
- Tuesday: Friday: In the field visiting farms and tagging trees

Key Responsibilities:
- Assist the Purchasing Manager in sourcing commercial-grade materials, including landscaping, irrigation, and hardscape supplies, vehicles, and heavy equipment
- Travel to suppliers throughout Florida and Georgia to hand-select and tag trees and palms to meet commercial grading standards
- Schedule tagging and procurement of all materials according to the commercial construction schedule provided by the Construction Manager
- Negotiate competitive pricing and terms with vendors and suppliers
- Provide accurate and competitive material pricing for commercial landscape bids
- Coordinate delivery logistics to ensure timely arrival of trees and palms at job sites

Why is This a Great Opportunity

Based in Jacksonville, FL, this well-established commercial nursery and landscaping firm is recognized as a trusted leader across the Southeast. Known for its craftsmanship, professionalism, and deep client partnerships, the company delivers high-quality results on large-scale commercial developments, municipal installations, and signature landscape projects. Backed by a private equity firm committed to expanding this industry segment within its portfolio, the company is entering an exciting growth phase — creating opportunities for driven professionals to make a lasting impact.

Why Join Us?

  • Collaborate with an experienced team on high-profile commercial landscape projects
  • Blend office coordination with field-based sourcing and vendor interaction
  • Travel throughout Florida and Georgia to hand-select top-quality materials
  • Contribute directly to project execution, quality, and client success


Note:
This is a unique role that requires knowledge of Trees and plants.  Understanding how to “grade” a tree for a specific project and where it would be planted.  The projects are at a large commercial scale. 
This is a backfill for someone who worked for the company for many years and suddenly passed away last year.
Call me with questions.

Job Requirements:

Qualifications

- Solid understanding of commercial tree and palm grading standards
- Previous experience in purchasing, landscaping, or construction industry preferred
- Strong negotiation and organizational skills
- Willingness to travel regularly throughout Florida and Georgia
- Valid driver’s license required
