You will establish the governance frameworks, policies, vendor management programs, and operating processes that enable the company to scale effectively while balancing cost, risk, compliance, and business objectives. Working closely with Finance, Legal, Security, Product, Revenue Operations, and executive leadership, you will transform procurement into a strategic business function that drives operational efficiency, vendor performance, and business value.

This is both a leadership and builder role, requiring the ability to design a function from the ground up while driving immediate business outcomes.

  • Design and implement procurement technologies, AI-enabled workflows, contract lifecycle management processes, and spend visibility programs
  • Provide procurement insights, vendor intelligence, and market trend analysis to support business planning, budgeting, and go-to-market decision making
  • Deliver reporting and recommendations to senior leadership regarding vendor performance, cost optimization opportunities, procurement effectiveness, and business risk

What You Bring

  • 12+ years of experience in procurement, sourcing, vendor management, supply chain, commercial operations, or a related discipline
  • Experience leading complex vendor negotiations, commercial agreements, and strategic sourcing initiatives with measurable business impact
  • Experience designing procurement processes, governance frameworks, operating models, and vendor management programs
  • Strong financial and analytical skills, including experience developing business cases, cost-benefit analyses, and financial models that support executive decision-making
  • Experience working with procurement platforms, contract lifecycle management systems, enterprise business systems, and third-party risk management tools
  • Experience leveraging AI-enabled tools and automation technologies to improve procurement operations, contract management, spend analysis, or vendor intelligence activities
  • Ability to influence and collaborate effectively with executive leaders and stakeholders across Finance, Legal, Security, Product, Operations, and Revenue teams
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Engineering, Supply Chain Management, or equivalent experience

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.
