About the Role
This is a unique opportunity to be the first dedicated procurement hire at Commure. You will be the architect of our procurement function, building everything from the ground up. This role is perfect for a strategic, hands-on leader who is passionate about building a best-in-class procurement function that drives significant cost savings, operational efficiency, and financial discipline across the organization.
You will design and implement the company's strategic sourcing framework, from initial business intake to vendor selection and negotiation.

In depth knowledge and experience negotiating a wide range of consulting agreements, subcontract agreements, statement of works including legal terms and conditions.
