Purchasing Manager Onboarding Checklist

This onboarding checklist outlines the steps involved in onboarding a new Purchasing Manager. It covers the pre-boarding process, which includes sending a welcome email, providing company information, setting up IT equipment, and assigning a mentor. The first day's schedule is detailed hour-by-hour, starting with HR paperwork and ending with a Q&A session. The first week involves in-depth training, shadowing, and managing small purchase orders. The first three months focus on increasing responsibilities, building supplier relationships, and participating in strategic planning. Throughout the process, the new hire receives feedback and coaching, completes training, and undergoes performance reviews.
