Procurement Admin Coordinator
RFQs, comparisons, and vendor chase — without the spreadsheet chaos.
The job
Buying is project management dressed as negotiation. This coordinator builds RFQ packages from intake forms, invites approved vendors, normalizes apples-to-apples comparison matrices (price, SLAs, lead times), and chases late responses. It doesn’t sign contracts — it makes your buyers look like they had a full admin team behind every purchase order.
