Purchasing Officer (Admin / Logistics / QSR Procurement)

We are seeking a highly organized and versatile Purchasing Officer to manage our end-to-end procurement, logistics, and related administrative functions. The ideal candidate will have direct experience in Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) procurement—specifically with Global and regional standards, supply chain, and approved vendors—combined with a strong background in inventory logistics and office administration. You will ensure the timely, cost-effective acquisition of food products, packaging, and store equipment while maintaining strict quality and compliance standards.

• Source and procure food items, ingredients, packaging, and uniforms in strict compliance with Global/Regional brand standards.
• Maintain relationships with Burger King-approved distributors and local suppliers; negotiate pricing, credit terms, and delivery schedules.
• Ensure all procured food products meet strict food safety, quality assurance, and local regulatory standards.
• Coordinate the procurement of kitchen equipment, spare parts, and restaurant POS/IT supplies as required.

• Monitor inventory levels across locations to prevent stockouts of critical ingredients or overstocking of perishable items.
• Coordinate international and local freight, clear customs (if applicable), and track shipments to ensure on‑time delivery to the central warehouse or directly to restaurants.
• Oversee logistics providers to guarantee that the temperature‑controlled supply chain (frozen/chilled goods) remains uncompromised.
• Handle claims regarding damaged goods, short‑shipments, or delivery delays with suppliers and logistics partners.

• Prepare and process Purchase Orders (POs), delivery notes, invoices, and maintain meticulous digital and physical procurement files.
• Track food cost variances, analyze market trends, and report on procurement savings and budget allocations.
• Work closely with the Finance team for timely supplier payments and coordinate with Store Managers to understand weekly consumption patterns.
• Assist with administrative tasks related to vendor onboarding, contracts, and compliance certifications.
