It was a nice place to work.
Managed vendor communications and information files by maintained purchase order flow, updated projects vendor lists, coordinated paperwork for vendors, processed and changed purchase orders.
Supported the Purchasing Manager in the daily functions of the Purchasing Department, which included, but was not limited to: a variety of clerical tasks, walk-in service requests with homeowners' direct work to be done by sub-contractors.
Coordinated a warranty response under the terms of the warranty agreement and regulations, received and confirmed receipt of the homeowners' service requests, evaluated the homeowner's repair issues to determine if they are warrantable items, scheduled and managed required repairs, developed and maintained good rapport with subcontractors/vendors and superiors to ensure quality work.
I learned purchasing skills and how the construction business is run.

Great company to have worked for. Developed project management experience. Successfully achieved marketing background & experience with agencies
A typical work day for me at D.R. Horton consisted of planning, scheduling, and managing marketing campaigns for our new home communities.
Having my finger on the pulse of our new home communities, I would field customer inquiries both by phone and email, review traffic reports, collaborate and check in with our creative agencies, and prioritize any modifications and fine-tunings of any mission critical marketing materials or information.
Oftentimes, I would proactively engage with the Division President, the Sales & Marketing VP, and the internal sales team for the latest and greatest on news and information for product updates and price changes, sales promotions, broker events, and discussions of media schedules and campaigns.
In addition, the maintenance of our corporate division website was a top priority of mine that I managed daily. I would frequently peruse the website and look for any errors, typos, mis-spellings, outdated info or images, current products and pricing, and then make any necessary changes and publish immediately.
Developing email marketing campaigns was another web-based focus of mine, especially as new communities sold out and new ones opened. Advertising of spec homes was often a topic included in the email blasts. If feedback was received, replies would be sent promptly and leads would be dispersed accordingly.
Managed a leads database for the sales team and provided maintenance on that as well and monitored user accounts.
