“Suzanne’s deep industry knowledge and expertise make her a great fit as Concur works on behalf of our clients to revolutionize the supply chain by strengthening and expanding our growing list of partners,” said Rajeev Singh, president and chief operating officer for Concur. “Her impressive background as a Fortune 500 travel manager combined with her successful leadership of NBTA gives Suzanne a unique perspective into the needs of corporate travel managers and the business travelers they support.”
