This is a strategic and highly collaborative role with visibility across the organization, perfect for someone excited by the opportunity to shape procurement operations and influence how Mark43 engages with complex contract vehicles. This role will support the strategy and execution of contract vehicles and procurement paths across State, Local, Education, Federal, and UK markets.
What You’ll Do
