We are seeking a high‑activity, performance‑driven Procurement & Contract Acquisition Specialist whose primary responsibility is to win new contracts through government procurement portals, private healthcare buyers, public agencies, and school systems.

To remain in the role, you must achieve all of the following in your first 90 days:

• WIN at least one contract award or have sales totaling $100,000 or more.
• Maintain 100% compliance within the first 14 days: all portal registrations complete, profiles updated (NAICS/NIGP codes, COIs, certifications), activity logged daily (Salesforce), coordinate other registrations in prep for aggressive sales/contracting.
• Meet daily & weekly KPIs consistently.
• Additional awards (set‑aside, open‑market, pilot contract, multiple vendor sales) are desired.

Failure to meet these requirements may result in role review, separation, or termination.

Base Salary: $50,000 – $60,000 (Conservative base to prioritize performance)

• $200,000 – $350,000: 3%
• $351,000 – $500,000: 5%
