Under the direction of the Purchasing and Grants Director, the Purchasing Agent executes professional procurement functions to ensure efficient, budget-conscious, and legally compliant acquisition of goods and services across County operations. The position coordinates the full purchasing lifecycle—including requisition reviews, purchase order creation, vendor negotiations, contract administration, and competitive solicitations (RFPs, RFQs, IFBs)—while evaluating bids, conducting market research, and presenting formal recommendations to the County Commission. Operating in strict adherence to the County Purchasing Ordinance, Utah Procurement Code, and grant guidelines, the role provides ongoing technical guidance and training to County departments, maintains precise public and audit records, and cross-trains in grant administration to support broader departmental operations as assigned.

Candidates must possess at least two (2) years of professional experience in purchasing, procurement, contract administration, or finance, paired with an Associate’s degree in a related field such as Business, Public Administration, Accounting, or Finance; a Bachelor’s degree is preferred. Ideal candidates will bring three (3) or more years of dedicated public-sector or governmental procurement experience and hold a recognized professional procurement certification (e.g., CPPO, CPP, or CPPB). An equivalent combination of education, training, and relevant experience will also be considered.

This full-time position offers $30.00 an hour, depending on experience, and a comprehensive benefits package. You'll receive medical, dental, vision, life insurance, retirement plans, and various supplemental insurance options. Enjoy Paid Time Off (PTO), an Employee Assistance Program, and an exciting perks program. Plus, you'll be part of Uintah County's award-winning wellness program, offering fun activities, convenient on-site health fairs and seminars, and full access to our on-site wellness center equipped with gym equipment.
