Bio
James Pool
My organisation uses the excellent Contracts Advance tender opportunity scanning service. We recently had to negotiate an extension to our contract and throughout that experience Sofia has been a pleasure to deal with. She has ensured that my organisational requirements have been more than met and offers the excellent attention to detail and desire to go that extra mile for her clients that separates the great customer managers from the rest. Thanks Sofia, you are a credit to your organisation and they are lucky to have you representing them.
