The Operations Specialist plays a key role in supporting Supply Chain Management (SCM) by facilitating essential communication and coordination with both suppliers and internal stakeholders. This position is responsible for resolving issues related to product pricing, order expediting, returns, and invoice/receipt discrepancies.

The role supports all core SCM functions, including managing a high volume of inbound communications via phone, tickets, and email from Mayo Clinic staff across all departments and external sources. A high level of customer service is required to ensure timely, professional, and solution-oriented responses.

The Operations Specialist acts as a primary contact for triaging SCM-related inquiries and issues, escalating and coordinating with the appropriate personnel as needed. This position also assists SCM leadership in training both new and existing staff, ensuring consistency and accuracy in knowledge transfer and performance. This role involves recognizing when policy or procedural violations have occurred and analyzing situations to determine the most appropriate course of action for resolution.

This role involves researching and resolving transactional discrepancies, investigating aging items on supplier statements, and proactively collaborating with internal teams and external suppliers to resolve issues efficiently.  International duties include verifying bank information, entering payments in foreign bank portals (including Colombia), dealing with foreign currency, and interpreting documents in Spanish. Ideal candidate would also have a strong financial background that requires extremely high attention to detail.

Additional job-related duties may be assigned by leadership as needed.
