You'll use supplier performance data and stakeholder insights to coordinate and facilitate governance activities, including quarterly business reviews, performance discussions, and risk escalations. Your efforts contribute to an integrated supplier management operating model, linking SPM, SRM, segmentation, and risk management to strengthen supplier accountability, enable strategic supplier engagement, improve reliability, and support longterm value creation for Booz Allen. Due to the nature of work performed within this facility, U.S. citizenship is required.
