• This includes coordinating with Account Management to align with client expectations and goals

Provide support and problem-solving on an as-needed basis during occasional on-call shifts.

Skills/Experience

Above all, we're looking for a relationship builder with proven experience. To us, that means:

• Successful experience in relationship management, or in a procurement/buyer position
• Experience working on vendor pricing and contracts is a plus

• Ability to juggle multiple client projects at a time, while maintaining sharp diligence to due dates and deliverables
• Effectively handle high-pressure situations and support team well-being
• Excellent listening, negotiation, and presentation abilities
• Strong verbal and written communication skills

Work Environment
