Manages and administers the College’s corporate purchasing/credit card (P-Card) program ensuring that cardholders comply with the College’s policies.
Oversees the College’s insurance program, including managing claims, assessing the adequacy of coverage and keeping abreast of changes in the College’s operations and risk profile to ensure that coverage is adequate.
Updates procurement related policies and procedures as needed and ensures they are consistent with relevant provincial directives and legislation.
Prepares routine and ad hoc procurement reporting for submission to senior management, the Ministry/Supply Ontario or as requested.
Identifies, establishes and manages quality relationships with key external stakeholders including collaborative buying partners (e.g., Supply Ontario, Ontario Education Collaborative Marketplace (OECM), Kinetic GPO), legal advisors, suppliers, insurance providers, corporate credit card financial institutions and other post-secondary institutions.
