Toronto, Canada Grant Thornton Full time

**Who we are**
You know those big cities that still feel like small towns? Where everyone’s friendly and helps each other out? That’s like Grant Thornton. Except here we’re all professionals and there isn’t a mayor or a general store. What we’re trying to say is that we’re a large and growing professional services firm that still feels like a community. We employ over 3000 people across Canada, and we truly care about our colleagues, our clients and the communities where we work and live. That’s what’s most important to us. We’re building a thriving organization that’s purpose driven and still want to remember what your favourite milkshake flavour is.

**As a Procurement Specialist your responsibilities will include**:

- Review, Negotiate and file agreements such as MSAs for SAAS and professional services contracts

Create PO’s upon getting appropriate requisition approvals, and issue PO’s, obtain PO confirmation and track PO status with the vendor
- Assist with invoice and agreement discrepancy resolution with vendors and internal clients
- Verify and modify requisitions to make sure tax code, delivery address, pricing and other conditions are in line with the Agreements and business requirements
- Work with requesters to gather business requirements and obtain quotes from vendors

**Be Grant Thornton**
If you’re a bit like us, you’re driven to connect with how others are feeling and thinking. Here we walk in others shoes before taking action. Just imagine being part of a team that puts “we before me”, where flexAbility is a mindset, and where you trust your colleagues to have your back. At Grant Thornton, you’ll work with inspiring leaders who support your development, both personally and professionally. This is a place where your insatiable curiosity enables you to think, see and hear from a variety of perspectives, a place where every day is different and having the courage to grow is part of who you are. And when all this comes together, well that’s when the magic happens
