  • Lead sourcing campaigns : issue RFPs, coordinate pre-bid walkthroughs, manage RFIs, and tabulate bids with clear commercial and technical evaluation.
  • Shape contracting strategy : facilitate strategy sessions (lump sum, T&M, etc.) and collaborate with legal and procurement to finalize Master Service Agreements when needed.
  • Drive bid excellence : coordinate pre-bid activities, ensure thorough bid evaluation, and guide award decisions.
  • Manage post-award execution : generate POs, oversee invoicing, and ensure smooth financial administration during project execution.
  • Ensure compliance and risk controls : monitor insurance, certifications, safety records, and regulatory requirements for all vendors.
  • Archive with precision : maintain organized procurement documentation for easy audits and future reference.
  • Strategic category management : perform spend analyses, assess supplier bases, gather market intelligence, and conduct risk assessments.
  • Deliver real value : lead strategic sourcing initiatives to achieve cost savings, quality improvements, and risk mitigation.
  • Influence and stakeholder alignment : champion procurement policies, drive adherence to strategic sourcing, and partner with cross-functional teams.
  • Maintain data integrity : keep sourcing activity records, contracts, and supplier performance in procurement systems with accuracy.

What You’ll Bring
