Procurement & Purchasing Specialist
About us
At THEKER, we're taking on one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century: redefining how physical work gets done in the world.
We are a robotics and AI company building intelligent, adaptable systems that solve problems traditional automation never could. From Barcelona, our mission is to create a generation-defining company leading the robotics revolution.
By joining us, you will have the chance to do the most meaningful work of your life, setting a new standard for industrial automation and driving breakthroughs with global reach, while being surrounded by a focused, talent-dense team that shares this ambition and is here to win.
We recently closed the largest robotics Series A in Europe's history, and we're looking for the top 0.01% of talent to take on that mission with us, and build the biggest company in the world.
Your role
We are looking for a Procurement & Purchasing Specialist to own how THEKER buys. Our robots are reaching more clients, and every new deployment adds suppliers and orders to manage. You will build the purchasing function that supports that growth, and the role will grow with it as our volume and team scale.
You will sit between operations and finance. Operations tells you what it needs, you turn it into purchase orders and follow them with suppliers until delivery. Every invoice then reaches finance already booked, with VAT broken down and the document attached. You don't need to master the technical side, the team is there for that. You do need to be sure of the process.
Day to day, you will work in Payhawk and in Bitácora, our internal operations tool. Small R&D purchases stay with each team; everything at company level goes through you. Over time, your goal is to automate the flow from Bitácora, so purchase orders and supplier emails go out with one click and low stock triggers a new order on its own.
What we're looking for
Experience in an administrative, back office or purchasing role. A first job or internship counts if you can show you handled it well.
Basic accounting and finance knowledge.
Highly organized and comfortable handling many requests and people at the same time.
Fluent Spanish and professional English.
Based in Barcelona or willing to relocate. This is a 100% on-site role.
Nice to have
Experience with an ERP, stock management or purchase order workflows.
Experience with Payhawk or a similar spend management tool.
Interest in the technical side of what you buy, such as electronic components and cabling.
Studies in business administration, finance, industrial engineering or similar.
You'll thrive at THEKER if
You're excited by a fast-paced and ambitious environment. The opportunity ahead of us is enormous, and we're going all in to capture it.
You want responsibility early on, delivering at world-class standards for leading clients.
You enjoy experimenting, iterating quickly, and embracing change as part of the learning process.
You bring order to messy processes and stay confident in the steps you follow, even when the technical details are new to you.
Main responsibilities
Own company-level purchasing as the single channel between internal teams and suppliers.
Turn internal requests into purchase orders using our template, send them and follow them until delivery.
Chase late orders and missing documents with suppliers.
Manage payments through Payhawk, both card and bank transfers.
Book every purchase in Payhawk with the invoice attached and VAT broken down, ready for reconciliation.
Keep purchase order, delivery note and invoice linked for every purchase, so finance can trace any payment back to its order.
Track stock for our stable bills of materials and make sure production never runs out.
Build automation in Bitácora so purchase orders and supplier emails are generated in one click.
What we offer
Being part of a fast-growing robotics and AI company with genuine ambition, where your career can accelerate alongside us.
The chance to build THEKER's purchasing process from scratch, and to grow it into a full procurement function as the company expands.
A focused, talent-dense team where your work is visible and your decisions count.
An environment where new ideas are encouraged and your contributions shape both the product and the company.
100% on-site work in Barcelona.
What the process looks like
Intro call with Talent Team, 30 minutes.
Case study based on a real purchasing scenario.
Technical interview with the operations team.
Interview with finance and the founding team at our offices.
These steps can be completed in 7 days.
