- Review and verify entered information for accuracy.
- Conduct additional research assignments as requested.
- Send notifications regarding out-of-range pricing and data updates.
- Maintain accurate and organized bid records throughout each shift.

- Typical work takes place between: 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM
- Representatives may enter as many as 800 bids per day during active periods.
Qualifications
- High school diploma or currently working toward graduation.
- Basic proficiency with:
