What You’ll Do

The Workday Capital & Services Buyer  is responsible for executing non-inventory purchasing in Workday for capital equipment, facilities, IT, service agreements, maintenance, rentals, consulting, and other services. This role converts approved requisitions into compliant purchase orders (POs), validates sourcing and contract alignment, manages supplier quoting and documentation, and partners with stakeholders to ensure on-time delivery and clean invoice match. Success is measured by cycle time, contract compliance, PO accuracy, and reduction of invoice exceptions.

Responsibilities

  • Create, review, and dispatch POs in Workday for capital and services, ensuring correct: supplier, pricing, payment terms, ship-to, spend category, worktags/cost centers, and documentation.

  • Track order status, expedite when needed, and resolve supplier issues (backorders, substitutions, delivery delays, scope changes).

  • Coordinate with requestors on receiving requirements and acceptance milestones for services/capital assets.

  • Partner with Accounts Payable to resolve 2-way/3-way match exceptions and prevent repeat issues.

  • Maintain high PO accuracy to reduce rework (price mismatches, missing receipts, incorrect worktags).

  • Identify recurring purchasing defects and recommend process improvements (standard templates, preferred suppliers, catalog enablement, SOPs).

  • Support Workday stabilization efforts and ongoing procurement governance.

Requirements:

  • High school diploma or GED . Associate or bachelor’s degree preferred (business, supply chain, finance, or related), but not required with relevant experience.
