Director of Procurement and Contracts

The Director of Procurement & Contracts leads GCPD’s procurement function and is responsible for the integrity, compliance, and administration of the District’s solicitation and contracting processes from requisition through contract close-out. This position reports to the Executive Director and operates independently of Program Management to preserve segregation of duties between the divisions that identify service and construction needs and the division that runs solicitation, evaluation, and award processes — a structure consistent with District policy and standard public-sector internal control practice.
