A hotel runs on thousands of small purchases, from fresh produce to cleaning supplies, and all of them have to arrive on time, to standard and within budget. Rixos Al Mairid is hiring a Purchasing Officer to manage that flow and report to the Purchasing In-Charge.
About the Role
Rixos was established in Turkey in 2000 and is known for its “ALL Inclusive, ALL Exclusive” concept. As Purchasing Officer you would manage and oversee the procurement of goods and services for the hotel, so that supplies are sourced, bought and delivered efficiently and at the right cost. You would coordinate purchasing for all departments, build and negotiate with suppliers for competitive prices and terms, monitor stock levels with the Receiving team, prepare and track purchase orders from placement to delivery, and keep purchases within budget while looking for savings. You would also check quality with the Purchasing In-Charge, keep accurate records of purchase orders, invoices, delivery receipts and contracts, and resolve discrepancies with suppliers.
Career Impact & Growth Opportunity
The role covers sourcing, negotiation, budgets, quality and sustainability-minded purchasing, and the listing mentions market research on trends and new suppliers. It does not describe a promotion path, but this breadth is a good base for purchasing in-charge or procurement manager roles in hospitality.

Late deliveries and weak prices ripple through every hotel department. A careful purchasing officer keeps kitchens stocked, events supplied and costs under control.
