? Procurement Manager – Consulting & Professional Services

We're looking for an experienced Procurement Manager to join our international team and take ownership of sourcing and contracting activities across the Consulting & Qualified Services category — think Legal, Finance & Taxation, and Management Consulting.

In this role, you won't just run RFPs — you'll build and own supplier relationships, negotiate hourly-rate structures with specialized experts, and become the trusted partner stakeholders turn to across multiple global locations. If you enjoy turning complex, multi-stakeholder sourcing challenges into clear, cost-effective outcomes, this is your next move.

? What you'll do

- Lead sourcing and contracting activities across Consulting & Professional Services, including RFPs, RFQs, competitive evaluations, benchmarking, and negotiations
- Own end-to-end category management, from supplier governance and contract renewals to ongoing relationship management




- Define and maintain a procurement strategy aligned with stakeholder goals, current supplier base, and spend
- Negotiate cost-effective pricing structures, including the hourly-rate models typical of this category
- Identify opportunities across the existing supply base to drive efficiencies and deliver measurable cost savings
- Conduct risk assessments and provide category intelligence, including regular spend and savings reporting
- Coordinate supplier performance reviews and technical discussions between suppliers and internal customers
- Partner closely with Legal, Global Process Owners, and cross-functional teams across time zones
- Manage and resolve escalations within the sourcing and contracting process

? Who we're looking for

- You bring 2+ years of experience in Consulting & Professional Services category management or strategic sourcing, strong negotiation and contract management skills, and fluent English.
- You're comfortable managing stakeholders across time zones and thrive under tight timelines, even when things get ambiguous.
- 7+ years in indirect procurement, EMEA experience, or a certification like CPM, CPIM, or CPSM would make you an even stronger fit.

If you're ready to bring your sourcing expertise to a team that values precision, collaboration, and growth — we'd love to hear from you. ?
