Lead and develop a team of 12, including two Assistant Managers and two Senior Procurement Specialists
Oversee a complex procurement portfolio, including 350+ active contracts and 180+ capital projects with Federal Transit Administration (FTA) funding exposure, supporting significant annual capital and operational spend across the agency
Own the delivery of procurement activities, ensuring contracts and projects are executed on time and in compliance with regulatory requirements
Partner closely with the Director of Supply Chain to shape and implement the department's strategic plan
Serve as a key partner to departments, guiding procurement strategies and ensuring alignment with organizational priorities
Manage vendor selection, performance, and issue resolution
Coordinate Board agenda submissions, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance with Board standards
Monitor departmental budgets and support annual planning and forecasting
Ensure audit readiness and mitigate risk across procurement processes, contracts, and vendor performance

What We're Looking For

7+ years of procurement experience, ideally in a public sector or transit environment
At least 3 years of leadership experience managing teams and complex procurement activities
Strong knowledge of federal, state, and local procurement regulations (FTA, CPUC, etc.)
Experience overseeing contracts, audits, and compliance-driven environments
A collaborative leader who can influence across departments and drive results

Compensation

Salary Grade 13*: $112,095 – $159,175 annually

Final offers are based on experience, internal equity, and market factors.

Benefits & Total Rewards
At MTS, our benefits go beyond salary—supporting your financial security, health, and work/life balance:

Pension + Retirement: Defined benefit pension (CalPERS), Social Security, and optional 457(b)/401(a) plans
Health Coverage: Medical, dental, and vision with MTS covering up to 90% of medical premiums
Time Off: 18 days of PTO to start + 13 paid holidays
Insurance: Employer-paid life, AD&D, and disability coverage
Perks: Free transit passes, wellness reimbursements, and tuition assistance (up to $5,000/year)
& much, much more!
