    Laura’s days are made up of engagement calls with associates, collaborative working with our bids and tenders team to represent the most suitable associates in our bids, managing our ASPECT system, observing training, sourcing associates to meet client requests, supporting the CRFQ system with associate recommendations, and providing feedback to associates.

    Nicola, James and Joanne work mainly with suppliers – sourcing them for client requests, negotiating pricing, coordinating bids, managing our CRFQ system and client catalogues, providing feedback to suppliers and collaborating with other departments.
