DIRECTOR OF PHARMACEUTICAL SUPPLY CHAIN & PROCUREMENT

Company: Scriptful RX | A Subsidiary of The Wellness Group

Location: Boca Raton, Florida

Employment: Full-Time | On-Site

Reports To: Chief Executive Officer, Scriptful RX

Industry: Pharmaceuticals | Healthcare | Pharmacy Operations

ABOUT SCRIPTFUL RX

Scriptful RX is a rapidly expanding pharmaceutical fulfillment and compounding platform operating under The Wellness Group (TWG), a vertically integrated healthcare organization investing up to $250 million in building the next generation of American healthcare infrastructure.

Through our growing network of pharmacies, telemedicine platforms, healthcare providers, and technology businesses, we are building a fully integrated healthcare ecosystem designed to deliver exceptional products and services at competitive prices.

Our pharmacy division supports high-volume prescription fulfillment, sterile and nonsterile compounding, and direct-to-consumer healthcare businesses throughout the United States.

As we continue acquiring and expanding pharmacy operations nationwide, we are looking for exceptional people who want to help build something extraordinary.

We aren’t interested in doing things the way they’ve always been done. We want people who can rethink how the pharmaceutical supply chain operates.

THE OPPORTUNITY

We are seeking a highly motivated, commercially minded Director of Pharmaceutical Supply Chain & Procurement to lead purchasing, supplier relationships, inventory management, and supply chain optimization across our growing network of pharmacies.

Reporting directly to the CEO of Scriptful RX, this individual will have significant responsibility for building and managing our pharmaceutical supply chain infrastructure.

This is not simply a purchasing position.

We want someone who understands the economics of pharmaceutical procurement, knows how to negotiate aggressively, understands pharmaceutical sourcing and distribution, and can build systems capable of supporting significant national growth.

The successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring we consistently purchase the highest-quality pharmaceutical products at the most competitive prices while maintaining complete supply chain transparency, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

1. Pharmaceutical Procurement & Purchasing

• Oversee pharmaceutical purchasing across all Scriptful RX pharmacy locations.
• Develop and execute a centralized purchasing strategy designed to maximize buying power across the organization.
• Negotiate pricing, rebates, payment terms, and purchasing agreements with pharmaceutical manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and suppliers.
• Identify opportunities to purchase pharmaceutical products directly from manufacturers where commercially and legally appropriate.
• Continuously benchmark purchasing costs against competing suppliers and market pricing.
• Establish preferred supplier agreements and strategic purchasing relationships.
• Manage procurement of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), excipients, packaging materials, finished pharmaceuticals, and other pharmacy-related supplies.
• Identify alternative suppliers to improve pricing, availability, and supply chain resilience.

2. Supplier Relationships & Negotiations

• Build and maintain relationships with domestic and international pharmaceutical manufacturers, wholesalers, and authorized distributors.
• Negotiate favorable long-term supply agreements.
• Evaluate suppliers based on pricing, product quality, regulatory compliance, reliability, and delivery performance.
• Develop strategic relationships with API manufacturers and suppliers serving sterile and nonsterile compounding operations.
• Establish supplier qualification and ongoing performance-monitoring programs in collaboration with pharmacy quality and compliance leadership.
• Identify opportunities for manufacturer-direct sourcing and volume-based purchasing incentives.

3. Inventory Management & Optimization

• Develop inventory management strategies across multiple pharmacy facilities.
• Maintain appropriate inventory levels to support prescription fulfillment while minimizing unnecessary working capital.
• Implement demand forecasting based on historical prescription volume, customer growth, and anticipated product demand.
• Reduce expired inventory, product waste, and unnecessary carrying costs.
• Establish inventory turnover targets and purchasing controls.
• Coordinate inventory transfers between facilities where legally permitted.
• Build reporting systems that provide real-time visibility into inventory, purchasing, and product availability.

4. Pharmaceutical Cost Reduction & Margin Optimization

A major component of this position will be identifying opportunities to reduce pharmaceutical acquisition costs and improve profitability.

Responsibilities include:

• Analyze purchasing costs at the SKU and product level.
• Identify lower-cost sourcing opportunities without compromising quality.
• Negotiate improved purchasing economics as prescription volumes increase.
• Develop purchasing strategies that maximize gross margin across our pharmacy network.
• Evaluate make-versus-buy economics where applicable.
• Identify purchasing consolidation opportunities following pharmacy acquisitions.
• Work closely with finance and pharmacy operations to understand product-level profitability.
• Establish measurable cost-saving initiatives and report results directly to executive leadership.

Success in this position will be measured not by how much we purchase, but by how intelligently we purchase.

5. Supply Chain Quality, Compliance & Traceability

Product integrity is fundamental to our business.

The Director will work closely with pharmacy leadership, pharmacists-in-charge, and quality and regulatory teams to ensure:

• Pharmaceutical products are sourced from appropriately qualified and authorized suppliers.
• Applicable FDA, DEA, state pharmacy board, and Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) requirements are followed.
• Appropriate supplier documentation, product traceability, and purchasing records are maintained.
• APIs and other compounding ingredients meet applicable quality and sourcing requirements.
• Products are properly tracked by lot number, expiration date, and manufacturer where required.
• Cold-chain products are handled and transported under appropriate conditions.
• Supplier quality concerns, product recalls, and supply disruptions are identified and addressed promptly.
• Purchasing decisions prioritize patient safety, product integrity, and regulatory compliance.

6. Expansion, Acquisitions & Integration

The Wellness Group is actively expanding its pharmaceutical infrastructure through acquisitions, partnerships, and organic growth.

The Director will play an important role in supporting this expansion by:

• Evaluating pharmaceutical purchasing operations at potential acquisition targets.
• Identifying procurement synergies and cost-saving opportunities.
• Integrating newly acquired pharmacies into our purchasing infrastructure.
• Consolidating supplier relationships across facilities.
• Establishing standardized purchasing procedures.
• Supporting procurement requirements for new pharmacy locations and expanding production capabilities.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• 7+ years of experience in pharmaceutical procurement, pharmaceutical distribution, pharmacy supply chain management, or a closely related field.
• Demonstrated experience negotiating with pharmaceutical wholesalers, manufacturers, and distributors.
• Strong understanding of pharmaceutical purchasing economics, pricing structures, and supplier agreements.
• Experience managing purchasing and inventory across high-volume pharmacy or pharmaceutical distribution operations.
• Familiarity with pharmaceutical regulatory requirements and supply chain traceability.
• Strong financial and analytical capabilities.
• Experience implementing purchasing systems, inventory management software, and procurement reporting.
• Demonstrated ability to negotiate meaningful cost reductions.
• Strong organizational, communication, and leadership skills.
• Ability to operate independently and make commercially sound decisions.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE

Candidates with the following experience will receive strong consideration:

• Experience with 503A compounding pharmacies.
• API procurement and supplier qualification.
• Sterile and nonsterile compounding supply chains.
• Direct manufacturer purchasing relationships.
• High-volume mail-order pharmacy operations.
• Pharmaceutical wholesale distribution.
• GLP-1, hormone, peptide, or specialty pharmaceutical supply chains.
• Multi-location pharmacy purchasing and inventory management.
• Pharmacy acquisition integration.
• Pharmaceutical purchasing automation and ERP systems.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We’re looking for a builder.

Someone who enjoys negotiating, understands numbers, challenges conventional thinking, and sees opportunities where others see problems.

You should be equally comfortable negotiating a multimillion-dollar pharmaceutical purchasing agreement, analyzing inventory turnover, and working directly with pharmacy operators to solve supply chain problems.

You should be commercially aggressive, operationally disciplined, and uncompromising when it comes to pharmaceutical quality.

Most importantly, you should be excited about helping build a rapidly expanding national healthcare infrastructure company.

WHY JOIN US?

• Work directly with the CEO of Scriptful RX.
• Join one of the most ambitious healthcare infrastructure expansion initiatives in the United States.
• Play a meaningful role in shaping a national pharmaceutical supply chain.
• Work across multiple pharmacy facilities and pharmaceutical product categories.
• Help build systems and infrastructure rather than simply maintain existing processes.
• Be part of a growing organization where strong performance creates opportunities for advancement.
