You will own the full lifecycle of construction and facilities sourcing-from category strategy and supplier management to complex RFx execution. Working independently with professional judgment and initiative, you will lead procurement for capital projects, maintenance programs, and facility upgrades from cradle to grave. A core focus of this role is standardizing processes, bid packages, scopes of work, and contracting practices to establish operational clarity, cost control, and data integrity across distributed project portfolios.

• Independently manage RFI, RFP, and RFQ processes from initiation through contract execution, including bid strategy development, supplier due diligence, evaluation, negotiation, and award recommendation.

• Standardize and refine scopes of work, bid packages, project specifications, and contract templates to improve accuracy, consistency, and operational efficiency across multiple sites.

• Negotiate, draft, and execute supplier contracts and service agreements, ensuring clear scopes, SLAs, KPIs, pricing structures, and appropriate risk allocation while partnering with Legal, Risk Management, and Finance for compliance.

• Analyze and validate supplier proposals, perform bid leveling, and evaluate change orders for fairness and alignment with contract terms to ensure optimal client value.

• Perform data analysis using Microsoft Excel on large datasets including spend data, supplier performance metrics, cost structures, and project budgets to generate actionable insights and track cost savings.

• Monitor supplier performance against SLAs and KPIs, manage compliance documentation (contracts, COIs, insurance, licensing, safety certifications), and resolve service issues proactively.

• Coordinate with project managers and stakeholders on scope development, budget alignment, and procurement strategy while tracking project procurement timelines to ensure on-time delivery.

• Provide procurement guidance and market intelligence to operations and project teams, securing early involvement in project planning discussions and representing Sourcing as the category expert.

• 3-5 years of strategic sourcing experience for construction, capital projects, or facilities-related services.

• Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel and data analysis including financial analysis, bid leveling, and analysis of large and complex datasets.

• Demonstrated ability to independently lead complex RFx processes from cradle to grave.
