ABOUT MATTHEW BARRETT
As a Director of Procurement, I lead a dynamic team that manages purchasing, inventory, and supplier relationships to support the operational goals of a fast-paced, growing company. My career spans multiple industries/departments, including Management, Accounting, Real Estate, Fleet management, and Colocation, all of which have contributed to my well-rounded expertise in procurement. This diverse background allows me to approach complex supply chain challenges with a strategic, cross-functional perspective.In Real Estate, I learned the importance of negotiating contracts and managing long-term vendor relationships, which now helps me secure favorable terms with suppliers. My experience in Fleet management sharpened my skills in balancing cost efficiency and operational uptime—crucial in maintaining smooth procurement operations. Meanwhile, working in Colocation gave me insight into managing high-value equipment and critical infrastructure, ensuring that procurement decisions are aligned with both business needs and technical requirements.Today, I leverage these experiences to drive impactful results. I thrive on building strong internal partnerships with teams like Finance, Operations, and Engineering, ensuring Procurement is always aligned with broader company goals. My leadership is focused on fostering a proactive, solution-oriented team that sees procurement not as a function, but as a strategic advantage for the business.
