We are seeking a detail-oriented and experienced Hospitality Procurement Budgeter to join our team.

Job Duties

• Work closely with vendors to learn latest products, pricing, and any available discount programs.

• Build prototypical budgets for different hotel chains and update these budgets on a regular basis as the franchisor changes schemes or requirements. These prototypical budgets are used both for reference and as a framework for real budgets.
