What You’ll Do

We are looking for an experienced and commercially focused Category Manager to join our SIXT Australia business.

In this role, you will support the day-to-day delivery of procurement services for SIXT across assigned categories and business requirements. The role coordinates sourcing and tender activities, supplier engagement, commercial analysis, benchmarking, contract administration and purchase-to-pay processes. It works closely with business stakeholders to ensure procurement activity is practical, timely, compliant and delivers measurable commercial and operational value.

This full-time permanent position is a hybrid work opportunity where you will be required to work across our Sydney offices as well as work from home as required and agreed.

What You’ll Do

In this role, you will:

  • Manage end-to-end sourcing activities, including RFIs, RFQs and RFPs, from planning through evaluation, recommendation and contract award.
  • Partner with stakeholders to define requirements, specifications, evaluation criteria and commercial assumptions for procurement initiatives.
  • Prepare procurement documentation including tender packs, pricing schedules, response templates, evaluation matrices and approval papers using approved templates.
  • Conduct commercial evaluations, analyse supplier proposals, benchmark pricing and support evidence-based sourcing recommendations and negotiations.
  • Develop and maintain an understanding of assigned categories, supplier markets, spend profiles, contract status and future sourcing opportunities.
  • Analyse spend, demand, supplier performance and pricing data to identify cost savings, compliance improvements, sourcing opportunities and operational efficiencies.
  • Support contract and supplier management activities, including supplier onboarding, due diligence, contract administration, renewals, extensions, performance reviews and issue resolution.
  • Provide procurement support across the purchase-to-pay lifecycle, including requisitions, purchase orders, receipting, invoice matching, supplier set-up and process support.
  • Guide stakeholders on procurement policy, approved suppliers, buying channels, delegated authority requirements and governance obligations.
  • Maintain accurate procurement records, sourcing documentation, contract registers, reporting data, approvals and compliance documentation.
  • Build effective relationships with suppliers and internal stakeholders, providing commercial advice, coordinating implementation activities and communicating procurement outcomes.
  • Ensure compliance with procurement policies, risk management, ethical sourcing, modern slavery, sustainability, privacy, information security and reporting requirements while contributing to continuous improvement of procurement processes, templates and tools.

What You'll Bring

  • Relevant tertiary qualification or progress toward CIPS/CIPSA or an equivalent procurement qualification (preferred not essential)
  • 2-5 years’ experience in procurement, sourcing, commercial analysis, contract administration or a closely related role.
  • Experience in fleet, transport, travel, automotive services or another operationally intensive environment (preferred not essential)
  • Practical experience supporting end-to-end sourcing activities, including RFQ or RFP documentation, supplier communications, evaluations and recommendations.
  • Understanding of category fundamentals and the ability to interpret spend, pricing, volume and supplier data.
  • Working knowledge of purchase-to-pay processes, including requisitions, purchase orders, receipting and invoice resolution.
  • Experience engaging suppliers and business stakeholders and managing multiple activities to agreed deadlines.
  • Sound commercial judgement and the ability to identify and escalate contractual, operational and supplier risks.
  • Experience with e-sourcing, contract management, ERP, supplier onboarding or procurement reporting systems as well as exposure to supplier performance management, commercial benchmarking and benefits tracking (preferred not essential).
  • Strong written communication, attention to detail, record keeping and document management skills.
  • Intermediate Microsoft Excel, Word and PowerPoint skills, including formulas, pivot tables and clear commercial presentations.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

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.
