Procurement Specialist - Expeditor
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the description.
First paragraph: "We are committed to building a workplace..." That's about culture, maybe "About the role"? Actually it's about company culture. Could be part of "About the role" or maybe we can include as a paragraph under "About the role". The "Summary" section describes role. So we can combine.
We need sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (maybe qualifications?), Qualifications (education/experience), Skills (competencies), Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have schedule: "This role will be hybrid requiring a minimum of 3 days in office." That's schedule info.
Pay: "Anticipated base salary range: $70,000 - $88,000 The final agreed upon compensation is based on individual education, qualifications, experience, and work location. This position is bonus eligible." So we have pay.
Benefits: list of benefits.
Responsibilities: many bullet-like sentences describing duties. We need to extract list items.
Requirements: maybe the "Requirements" heading originally in posting includes bullet list of duties? Actually the posting has a "Requirements" section after Summary, but it's actually a list of duties (expedites purchase orders...). So we treat that as Responsibilities? The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map content accordingly.
We have a "Requirements" section in the posting: after Summary, there is "Requirements Expedites purchase orders..." That's actually duties. But we can treat that as Responsibilities. Then later there is "Qualifications" heading with bullet list of qualifications. Then later there is "Safety" heading but we can ignore as boilerplate? Safety is substantive but maybe part of Responsibilities? However we should not create sections unless we have specific content. Safety could be part of Responsibilities or maybe we can include under Responsibilities as a bullet. But we must not invent sections.
We have "Physical Requirements And Environment" which is about physical demands; could be part of Responsibilities? Might be better to include under Responsibilities or maybe a separate section? But we only have predefined headings; we could put under Responsibilities or maybe under Qualifications? Probably Responsibilities includes physical demands.
We need to preserve all substantive info; we can include as list items under Responsibilities.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, drug-free workplace, equal opportunity, etc. Remove those.
Also remove navigation, cookie, legal, duplicated lines, application instructions.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's extract content.
About the role: Could combine the introductory paragraph about commitment and the Summary paragraph.
Let's craft:
About the role
About the role
We are committed to building a workplace where everyone feels heard and respected, and extending our culture of care so that every individual can reach their full potential. We want you to have a sense of belonging and feel valued for your contributions and the perspectives you bring.
The Procurement Specialist/Procurement Specialist - Expeditor is a member of the center-led Procurement Team supporting the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) Business Function across renewable energy and transmission projects, including utility-scale Solar, Wind, Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), Substations, Switchyards, and Transmission Lines. This position helps achieve competitive advantage and business profitability through effective sourcing, commercial negotiation, supplier management, and disciplined procurement and expediting of services, materials, and equipment. The position collaborates closely with, as needed, project management, engineering, estimating, legal, insurance, logistics, construction site teams, suppliers, and other stakeholders to procure, track, and expedite critical project resources from bid through delivery, ensuring project schedules are met and successful project execution is achieved. This role will be hybrid requiring a minimum of 3 days in office.
But schedule is separate; we might move schedule line to Schedule section. However the schedule info is also part of About the role; but we can still include it there and also have Schedule section? The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we keep schedule info in About the role and not create separate Schedule section unless we have specific schedule details beyond that. The schedule is just hybrid 3 days in office; that's specific. Could be its own Schedule section. But we already have schedule info in About the role; we could still create Schedule section with that detail, but that would duplicate. Better to put schedule in its own section and not duplicate. So we should extract schedule line to Schedule section. Thus About the role excludes schedule line. Let's rewrite About the role without schedule. About the role paragraph: first commitment paragraph + summary paragraph (excluding schedule line). The summary paragraph ends with "...ensuring project schedules are met and successful project execution is achieved." Then schedule sentence separate. So About the role:We are committed to building a workplace where everyone feels heard and respected, and extending our culture of care so that every individual can reach their full potential. We want you to have a sense of belonging and feel valued for your contributions and the perspectives you bring.

Now Responsibilities: list of duties from the "Requirements" section (the long paragraph). We need to break into list items. Let's extract each duty sentence: - Expedites purchase orders and subcontracts for major equipment and materials — PV modules, tracker systems, inverters, BESS enclosures, transformers, switchgear, breakers, conductor, and structures — from award through delivery, confirming order acknowledgements, drawing submittals, fabrication progress, inspection and test dates, release, and shipping documentation against contractual delivery commitments to RES. - Performs desk and field expediting, including supplier progress calls and shop visits, to verify manufacturing progress against the schedule. - Identifies slippage, develops recovery plans, and escalates critical-path exposure to project teams and senior-level individuals for resolution. - Maintains the project expediting log as the single source of truth for delivery status and required-on-site dates. - Builds strong internal and supplier relationships. - Advises project teams on sourcing and delivery risks for medium-spend and low-to-medium risk scopes, providing guidance to support successful project execution while identifying process challenges and opportunities for continuous improvement. - Mentors Procurement Associates and works with other Procurement Specialists, Expeditors, Buyers and/or Managers to affect the group positively. - Builds relationships with the project teams to understand how equipment and materials perform per our construction means and methods. - Understands which equipment and materials drive critical path and bring our program a competitive, strategic advantage, including long-lead items, such as main power transformers, high-voltage breakers, BESS units and switchyard steel. - Makes recommendations for process improvement and continuous improvement initiatives. - Arranges, tracks, and expedites the timely delivery of services, materials, and equipment to meet site expectations, including as applicable, coordinating freight, customs, permits and receiving with logistics and site teams. - Attends work regularly and punctually, as scheduled or expected. - Complies with Employee Handbook, Code of Conduct, and Company Policies & Procedures. - Presents, supports, and leads-by-example with a safety and quality-oriented attitude. - Takes a proactive approach to the scopes being handled to ensure lead times and pricing are accurately communicated and identify the best path to market. - Troubleshoots and trains internal Procurement staff and stakeholders on software use and best practices. - Makes recommendations for process improvement and continuous improvement initiatives. (duplicate? appears twice; we can keep once) - Works with Health, Safety, Quality, and Environment (HSQE) group to evaluate subcontractors, implement safe practices, mitigate safety risks, and ensure subcontractors are prequalified before beginning on-site work. - Participates in required training and follows safety management system (SMS), quality management system (QMS), and environmental management system (EMS) procedures. - Learns and actively drives the use of the various software platforms Procurement uses, including Business World, Procore, SharePoint, Hive World, ISN, and other resources. We should remove duplicate "Makes recommendations for process improvement and continuous improvement initiatives." Keep one. Also note "Attends work regularly and punctually, as scheduled or expected." Could be considered schedule but it's about attendance; we can keep. Now Requirements section: The posting had a "Requirements" heading but we used that for responsibilities. Actually the Qualifications section follows. So we need a Requirements section? The instruction says use headings like Requirements etc. We have content for Requirements? The original posting had a "Requirements" section that we treated as duties. But we might still need a Requirements section for things like "Ability to travel 16-30% required." etc. Actually those are under Qualifications. Let's see. After the duties paragraph, there is "Qualifications Bachelor’s Degree...". So there is no separate Requirements besides duties. So we may not need a Requirements heading; we can skip it if no specific content besides duties. But we have to decide: The instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it. So if we treat duties as Responsibilities, we may not need a separate Requirements heading. However we have travel requirement etc. Those are under Qualifications. So we can have Qualifications section. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to extract Qualifications content: after "Qualifications" heading. Let's extract: "Bachelor’s Degree in Construction Management, Business, Engineering, Supply Chain Management, or equivalent degree, or 3+ years of military/education/relevant work/field experience combination required. IMS or CIPS certification preferred. 3 years or more negotiating purchase orders and subcontractors preferred. Ability to travel 16-30% required.

Good communicator (written and verbal) and able to build solid and effective relationships with team members, project teams, subcontractors, and suppliers. High level of competency with the Microsoft Office Suite (Outlook, Word, Excel (pivot tables), and PowerPoint)." Then after that: "Highly desirable Expediting, materials management, or logistics experience on renewables or T-line/Substation EPC projects. Knowledge of contracts and subcontracts. Understands macro-level market conditions and how they will affect their spending category. Knowledge of Solar, Wind, or Substation and Transmission line construction and Procurement.
