The posting

What's the role?

Step into a visible, high-impact role as Procurement Manager – Technology, based in our Surry Hills office on a 12-month maximum-term contract.

Reporting directly to the Head of Procurement, you will act as a primary commercial partner across our technology, digital, platform and data categories. This is a visible, hands-on role where you will establish and execute an annual procurement work program, lead complex commercial negotiations and partner closely with key internal functions- including Legal, Finance, Global, and Cyber - to ensure News Corps operational, security and financial interests are protected throughout the entire contract lifecycle.

Main Responsibilities

Strategic Sourcing & Execution

  • Lead the end-to-end procurement lifecycle across technology categories, including strategy development, market engagement, tendering, supplier evaluation and contract execution.
  • Draft, structure and negotiate high-quality, fit-for-purpose commercial contracts for low- to high-risk engagements.
  • Prepare and present clear, data-backed award recommendations to executive leadership.

Commercial & Financial Management

  • Partner closely with Commercial Finance to ensure deals align with operating budget envelopes.
  • Drive initiatives to deliver on individual and team-wide annual cost-optimisation targets without compromising operational performance.
  • Build and manage strategic supplier relationships to secure market-competitive rates and sustained commercial value.

Contract Governance & Risk Management

  • Guide business stakeholders on contract lifecycle management, proactively handling claims, disputes, renewals, and variations.
  • Partner with Legal, Cyber and Global teams to safeguard NCA's compliance, IP and data security standards.
  • Identify operational and supply chain risks early, embedding robust mitigation strategies into agreements.

Who are you?

  • 5–7+ years of experience in strategic sourcing, category management or commercial contract management within a complex corporate environment.
  • Proven track record partnering with technical teams, with the ability to translate complex IT, platform, and digital requirements into robust commercial documents.
  • Strong background in contract review, drafting and supplier dispute management in close alignment with Legal counsel.
  • Highly commercially astute and data-driven, using market insights and metrics to challenge the status quo and unlock value.
  • Exceptional relationship builder and influencer who can respectfully challenge assumptions and engage everyone from front-line engineers to senior executives.
  • Experience within a media, digital platform, or broadcast environment is highly regarded.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
