We are seeking an Operations & Purchasing Administrator to support purchasing, order tracking, and invoice processing across multiple U.S.-based healthcare facilities. This is a support and coordination role focused on accurate processing, follow-ups, and ensuring smooth day-to-day operational flow.

(SA public holidays compensated in accordance with the BCEA)

  • Internet Requirements: Fixed fibre line with a minimum speed of 25 Mbps (upload & download) and a wired Ethernet connection
  • Power Backup: A reliable power backup solution is mandatory due to load shedding

Key Responsibilities:

  • Process and track purchase requests and orders using internal systems

  • Perform basic budget checks and confirm required approvals before processing

  • Assist with sourcing approved non-catalogue items as required

  • Communicate with facilities and suppliers regarding order status, delays, and deliveries

  • Match supplier invoices to purchase orders and flag discrepancies

  • Track rental and equipment usage and support timely return processes

  • Maintain accurate records and documentation to support smooth operational workflows

  • Experience in an administrative, operations, or finance support role

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously

  • Comfortable working with systems, data capture, and structured processes

  • Clear written and verbal communication skills

  • Reliable, organized, and able to work independently in a remote environment

  • Background in operations, logistics, finance administration, or supply chain support

  • Experience supporting multiple stakeholders or facilities

  • Exposure to compliance-driven or healthcare environments
