Company Description
Packaging shouldn’t be the thing holding your product back. At Vert, we make it the easy part.
Vert is an all-in-one packaging platform built for brands that move fast and plan to grow. Pouches, folding cartons, labels, containers: if it holds, protects, or sells your product, we’ve got it covered. Our hybrid supply chain gives customers the best of both worlds. Domestic production, including our own manufacturing facility in Longmont, Colorado, delivers quick turns and real flexibility. Import manufacturing keeps margins healthy when volumes scale up. We don’t just fill orders. We partner with brands to build packaging that fits where they are today and where they’re headed next.
The Role: Procurement Specialist
Every order has a perfect home, and you find it. As a Procurement Specialist, you’ll manage purchasing order by order, deciding whether each job runs on our own production floor or goes out to our network of domestic and international suppliers. You’ll be the link between what the customer approved and what the supplier produces, so every pouch, carton, and label comes out right the first time.
A big part of this role is art proofing. You’ll coordinate proofs with vendors, catch issues early, and keep approvals moving so nothing stalls on press.
This is a full-time, remote role.
What you’ll do:
- Manage purchasing end to end on an order-by-order basis, from PO creation through delivery and reconciliation
- Route each job to the right source, internal production or an external supplier, weighing cost, lead time, capability, and quality
- Coordinate art proofing with vendors, including file handoff, proof review, revisions, and final approval
- Work with domestic and international suppliers on pricing, specs, timelines, and shipping
- Evaluate supplier performance on quality, reliability, capacity, and compliance
- Support contract negotiations and analyze pricing and cost structures
- Partner with
