Expert opinions on the best states for procurement supervisors
Are there any particularly good places in the United States for procurement supervisors to find work opportunities?
Terry McKee
IT & Procurement Director, Knoxville Community Development Corporation
The baby boom generation is retiring rapidly and is creating openings. In 2017, Politico reported that 13% of federal government workers were over 60, 25% were over 55, and only 17% were millennials. These statistics would likely hold true for local governments, too. In general, the states with higher populations will have the most openings: California, Texas, Florida, for example. However, Virginia and Washington D.C. also will have many opportunities due to the high concentration of government offices in these areas. That does not mean that other areas have no opportunities. For instance, within Knox County (where my office is) there at least 10 governmental entities. Each of these entities has one or more procurement offices. Find an area of the country which you love, and then find a job to serve the citizens.
