SalaryAs an Operations Specialist at Cambridge Computer, your central role is to execute all moving pieces of the technology acquisitions that keep our clients’ data centers on the cutting edge. That means that we’ll expect you to learn how to collaborate smoothly with our sales team and other internal stakeholders to reduce risk while managing the entire procure-to-pay process directly with both our name brand and startup technology partners to give our customers a white glove experience. Don’t worry, we invest a lot in hands-on training and mentoring to get this right as it’s our core function.

- Attention to detail and high standards for oneself and others
- Able to see the big picture and understand *why* something is done
- Clear communicator, whether via email or over the phone
