We are Pramac, a Generac Company, leading the evolution to more resilient, efficient, and sustainable energy solutions.

Established in 1966, we have always evolved, expanding our product portfolio and becoming the global benchmark for the production of generators and warehouse material handling equipment. Our diverse business lines ensure the company is a leading player in a wide variety of global markets.

The Purchasing Officer supports the Supply Chain Supervisor in sourcing and purchasing for the Bahrain generator factory and the wider business. The role turns approved purchase requests into purchase orders and follows each order through to delivery, supplier payment and PO closure in the ERP system. It also supports sourcing and supplier onboarding as GJG moves from a small number of overseas sources to local suppliers and direct buying from component manufacturers.
