Procurement Specialist

Our Mission

Everyone remembers the feeling of opening something they didn't expect to love at first but ended up wearing everyday. At Icy Box, we're building on that feeling and turning the thrill of the unknown into a business that scales. What started as a fast-moving watch commerce and mystery box company is becoming something bigger: a durable consumer brand that people trust, return to, and talk about.

We move quickly, we sweat the details, and we're not afraid to build the plane while flying it. If you want to be close to the center of a company still writing its own playbook, this is that kind of place.

• Move Fast, Build Right: Speed matters, but so does the thing you're building. We'd rather ship today and fix tomorrow than sit on something perfect and late.

• Own the Gap: When nobody owns it, that's exactly where we lean in. Ambiguity isn't an excuse to wait, it's an invitation to lead.

• Clarity Is a Gift: Messy information helps no one. We turn noise into options, options into decisions, and decisions into action.

• Trust Over
  
  Title:
  
  Influence here comes from follow-through, not org-chart position. The best ideas win regardless of who's in the room.

• Say the Real Thing: Hard conversations happen early and directly, because that's what actually moves things forward.

• Do the Unglamorous Work: From a spreadsheet to a vendor call to a hiring process to a board memo, no task is beneath getting the company where it needs to go.

We're looking for a Procurement Specialist with real experience sourcing in the fashion industry - apparel, accessories, footwear, or adjacent luxury/retail goods. You'll own vendor sourcing, negotiation, and purchasing relationships that keep our product pipeline moving.

• Source and vet vendors/suppliers specifically within fashion, apparel, or luxury goods supply chains

• Negotiate pricing, terms, and purchase agreements

• Track and manage purchase orders end-to-end

• Build and maintain vendor relationships, including manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors

• Monitor market trends and pricing within the fashion/retail space to inform sourcing decisions

• Coordinate with inventory/logistics on incoming shipments and quality expectations

• Prior procurement or sourcing experience specifically within fashion, apparel, or luxury retail - this is a hard requirement, not a nice-to-have

• Strong vendor negotiation skills

• Comfort working with wholesale and manufacturer relationships

• Detail-oriented, organized, and able to manage multiple vendor relationships at once

• Experience at a high-growth startup or consumer/retail company.

• Existing relationships with fashion/apparel wholesalers, manufacturers, or distributors.

• Experience sourcing watches, luxury accessories, or collectibles specifically - directly relevant to Icy Box's core product.

• Familiarity with mystery box / randomized-value product economics and how sourcing decisions feed into box composition.

• Comfort negotiating internationally, since sourcing may span multiple countries and suppliers.
