Our Opportunity:

We are looking for a Procurement Specialist to join our dynamic and fast-paced Procurement Team.

As a key partner and subject matter expert, you’ll handle sourcing, supplier negotiations, onboarding, contract reviews, and provide end-to-end Source-to-Pay support.

You'll spend your time:

• Building strong relationships with stakeholders, collaborating on purchasing strategies, negotiating pricing, and other business terms with suppliers for new purchases and high-value renewals.
• Developing pricing models based on supplier proposals to assess different buying scenarios in line with future growth and current demand.
• Helping teams evaluate their purchasing practices and adopt a value-driven mindset when buying on behalf of the organisation.
• Contributing to ad-hoc projects or other procurement-related tasks as needed.

You should apply if you:

• You are smart, hungry and humble with 3+ years of experience in procurement with a focus on strategic sourcing, with a track record of negotiated savings in relevant categories.
• You’ve worked in a high-growth global company (ideally software) and understand the complexities of expanding offices, managing global initiatives, leveraging purchasing power, and eliminating silos.
• You’re confident in analysing and presenting complex data to executives and business unit partners.
• You have the ability to analyse and propose various commercial models ahead of any new purchases and renewals.
• Highly organised and proactive, you can manage multiple projects at once with a strong bias for action.
• Have a radical focus on customer service.
• You’ve built strong partnerships with stakeholders and are skilled at analysing costs related to both growth and current demand.
• You thrive in ambiguous environments and are comfortable working within grey areas.
• You understand key optimization levers such as demand management, consolidation, and price negotiation.
• You demonstrate strong ownership and accountability while managing competing priorities.
• You have experience in reading and reviewing commercial agreements, in particular spotting issues around term, termination, billing, etc.
