Public Sector Buyer
The Public Sector comprises all organizations that are owned and operated by the government. This includes federal, state, and local government agencies, as well as quasi-governmental organizations such as public schools and hospitals.
The Public Sector Buyer is responsible for the procurement of goods and services on behalf of the government entity they work for. This includes researching and selecting vendors, negotiating contracts, and overseeing the delivery of products and services.
The role of the Public Sector Buyer is critical in ensuring that the government entity they work for obtains the best possible value for the taxpayers’ money. In order to do this, they must have a thorough understanding of the procurement process and be skilled in negotiation and contract management.
