Answer

"Procurement officer" is quite a common job title. Also I see adverts for such a job titled simply "Buyer" often enough too. I have never seen an advert for a job vacancy with the title "purchasing agent" though I suppose it could also be used.

Answer

How big is the organisation?
Do you have staff who report to you?
Do you have a boss who does the same stuff?
Are we talking thousands of dollars of turnover per day or millions?
