Subcontractor Sourcing & RFQ Coordinator – B2B Calling / Vendor Research

Akonde Solutions LLC is looking for a reliable Subcontractor Sourcing & RFQ Coordinator to help us identify, qualify, and follow up with U.S.-based subcontractors and commercial suppliers for ongoing projects. This role involves both vendor research and outbound calling. You will be responsible for identifying qualified companies that match a specific scope of work, calling them to confirm capability and service area, locating the correct estimator or sales contact, obtaining a direct email address, sending an approved RFQ/scope-of-work packet, confirming receipt, and following up until the company either provides a quote, declines, or is determined not to be a fit. This is not a sales-closing position. You will not negotiate pricing, make contractual commitments, interpret Government regulations, or answer technical questions that have not been provided to you. Technical questions should be documented and escalated to management. Typical responsibilities include researching commercial contractors, equipment dealers, caterers, facility-service companies, and other vendors; using trade association and manufacturer/OEM directories in addition to Google; making outbound calls to U.S. businesses; identifying estimators and decision-makers; sending pre-approved email templates and attachments; following up on outstanding pricing requests; and maintaining accurate notes in our CRM/Airtable. The primary objective is not simply making calls. The objective is helping us obtain usable subcontractor/vendor quotes. Strong spoken English and confidence speaking with U.S. business owners, estimators, service managers, and sales representatives are required. You must be comfortable working during U.S. business hours when suppliers are available by phone. We will begin with a small paid trial involving approximately 10–15 calls and vendor research. Strong performers may be offered ongoing part-time work of approximately 20–25 hours per week. Experience in B2B cold calling, appointment setting, lead generation, vendor sourcing, procurement support, construction services, or outbound sales is strongly preferred.
