Purchasing Agent

Explanation:

Purchasing agents work in the procuring department under the purchasing manager. Their role is to procure supplies, equipment, and services for a company. Purchasing agents ensure the business operations do not stop due to lack of supplies.

Ideally, purchasing agents should be good negotiators. They have to balance cost and quality when purchasing. The objective is to buy the best quality of goods or services for the lowest price and adequate quantities.
