Role Overview:

We are hiring a procurement leader to help strengthen the procurement function, manage client facing opportunities, and scale the next generation of AI-enabled procurement solutions.

- Support product sales efforts by participating in client demos, shaping solution narratives, and engaging directly with prospective customers
- Engage with clients and partners to understand requirements, refine solutions, and ensure alignment between product capabilities and customer needs
- Support vendor onboarding activities by managing and responding to client questionnaires and due diligence requests
- Own cross-functional workstreams and help prioritize initiatives based on business impact, customer needs, and strategic direction

Qualifications:

- 10+ years of experience in technology procurement, with strong exposure to global procurement, vendor management, and commercial negotiations
- Experience in Big 4 or similarly rigorous and fast-paced environments preferred
- Demonstrated experience working across procurement, commercial, and client-facing functions
- Proven track record of supporting or leading complex deal processes, including RFPs, RFIs, and contract negotiations
- Experience operating in ambiguous, high-growth, or rapidly evolving environments
- Experience engaging with senior stakeholders and clients, including presenting solutions and leading discussions

Skills & Capabilities:

- Strong commercial and contractual judgment with the ability to balance risk and business objectives in a fast paced and rapidly scaling environment
- Highly adaptable and comfortable working in agile, unstructured environments
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to operate effectively across technical and non-technical teams
- Strong executive presence and ability to engage confidently with senior stakeholders and clients
- Ability to work hands-on across multiple domains, including procurement execution, deal support, and product development
- Technology-forward mindset with a willingness to work closely with product and engineering teams (no coding required)
- Proven ability to manage cross-functional initiatives and drive outcomes in complex environments
- Willingness to travel occasionally for client meetings and team collaboration
