Description

Salary:


We are growing our team, and we are looking for an experienced
Purchaser/Buyer who will play a key role in selection and procurement functions directly associated with the needs for required components, specialized equipment, machinery, tools, materials and services to support business operations.

In addition to sourcing and evaluating vendors, negotiating contracts and tracking orders and costs, this position will be responsible for leading supplier relationship development and promoting the most effective use of FuelPositive funds.

This position will report to the COO. As we are a growing organization, the reporting structure will shift in the near future.


Who we are:


FuelPositive is a Canadian-based, clean technology company, working to fight climate change by creating and developing practical, clean, and sustainable carbon-free solutions that can be implemented economically now.

Above all, we believe in being kind - to the earth, to each other, and to ourselves. We believe that being kind will pay dividends for us all. It's all about Fuel for a Mindful World.


What we make:


Our lead product, an onsite, containerized Green Ammonia production system that is modular and scalable, will revolutionize clean energy through a patent-pending, first-of-its-kind technology invented in Canada.

The system takes air, water and a sustainable electricity source to produce green anhydrous ammonia with no carbon emissions. Adoption will dramatically support global targets to reduce CO2 emissions.

And our decentralized, in situ approach will bring supply chain independence to our first customers - farmers - for the first time.
