The Contracts Manager will report to the Director of Contract Management to support a team responsible for managing a newly created, centralized contracting 'center of expertise' to support faculty and staff purchases of goods and services from third-party suppliers. Today, the university processes approximately 5,000+ supplier contracts per year in a highly decentralized environment. In this role, the Contracts Manager will have an opportunity to leverage technology, including artificial intelligence, to design and implement processes aimed at streamlining contract cycle times while mitigating business, reputational, and legal risk to the university.
