  • Translate business requirements into sourcing strategies, working closely with IT, Digital and Information Security teams to identify purchasing needs, define technical and commercial criteria, and recommend preferred suppliers based on price, quality, delivery capacity and ethical/environmental standards.
  • Use data analytics to assess spend patterns, supplier performance and market trends, identifying cost reduction, value optimisation and risk mitigation opportunities, and supporting budget planning and savings tracking for Technology procurement.
  • Collaborate with key control and support functions (Technology, Finance, Legal, Risk, Compliance and Operations) to manage inventory, reconcile invoices, resolve discrepancies and verify delivery against specifications, escalating material risks or deviations where required.
  • Promote and standardise procurement processes, regulations and tools across the EFG Group, supporting stakeholder change management and contributing to process optimisation and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Advise stakeholders on procurement best practices, group policies and Technology supplier markets, acting as a trusted partner to senior Technology and corporate stakeholders in an international environment.
  • Contribute to Technology procurement projects and initiatives, including category strategies, implementation of new tools and continuous improvement programmes, with a particular focus on integrating artificial intelligence tools into procurement workflows in line with group standards and risk guidelines.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing
