TO: All Employees
FR: Jeff Wilson, Project Lead, San Francisco Bay Region Network

Dear Colleagues:

I am pleased to announce that Jenifer Barnett has been appointed Senior Director of Procurement and Accounts Payable for the San Francisco Bay Region Network (SFBRN), effective immediately.

Jenifer brings to this position more than two decades of leadership experience at Sonoma State University, where she has overseen procurement, contracts, and accounts payable operations with a strong focus on efficiency, compliance, and collaboration across the California State University (CSU) system.

Jenifer has played a key role in several systemwide initiatives, including the implementation of CSUBuy and Concur Single Instance. She has also helped shape the future of procurement across the system through her contributions to the CSU Multi-U Initiative. Most recently, she conducted an assessment for the Network on integrating Procurement and Accounts Payable operations. Her proven ability to lead teams, optimize operations, provide CSUBuy and Concur training to employees, and foster partnerships across campuses makes her exceptionally well-suited for this new regional leadership role.

Jenifer will report directly to Dr. Karen Moranski, Vice President of Regional Network Transformation, until the search for the Network Chief Financial Services Officer has been completed with the assistance of the CSU Chancellor’s Office.

Please join us in congratulating Jenifer and welcoming her to this expanded position within the SFBRN. We look forward to her continued leadership in advancing procurement and accounts payable through operational excellence and service to the SFBRN campuses.
