Behind the scenes
- "Ah. Why don't you come in? I've just taken delivery of a grindylow for our next lesson."
- — Remus Lupin[src]
- Given the name of the occupation, and the fact that their signature is required for the supply list, it can be assumed that the occupant of this position was involved in the collection of funds for - and oversaw the implementation of - the school's annual budget, or otherwise charged with making good on the government funding the school received by doing market research to ensure that the supplies requested by the teaching staff met certain standards, that the course aims of the school's teaching staff was consistent with the content and standard of magical education expected by the Wizarding Examinations Authority, and otherwise supplies the teachers with with various educational provisions to meet the school's needs.
- If so, it would presumably be Madam Thomsonicle-Pocus who procured and delivered the Cornish Pixies former Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor Gilderoy Lockhart introduced to his class as part of his lessons in class, as well as the Grindylow for his successor Remus Lupin.
- The occupant of this position might work at the Ministry of Magic Remittance Office.
