Procurement Specialist

🧠 Negotiated $500M software deals? We should talk.

We’re hiring a Strategic IT Procurement Lead to drive global sourcing strategy in the software category—and we mean big software.

💥 Here’s the deal: This isn’t your average sourcing role. We’re looking for someone who’s led end-to-end negotiations on large-scale, multi-year software contracts—think IBM, SAP, Oracle, SaaS, and On-Prem.

This role reports into the SVP and works closely with the CSO/CTO org to manage procurement across enterprise-wide IT: software, hardware, network, telecom.

📍 Location: Hybrid in Chicago (3 days/week onsite)

🛠 What you’ll flex:

• 8 years in IT procurement (enterprise level)
• Deep experience with SW contract negotiation (multi-year, $100M ideal)
• Comfort working directly with big vendors (not through the grapevine)
• Source-to-Pay expertise (Coupa a plus)
• RFx process leadership
• Strong legal/contractual chops (master service agreements, renewals, etc.)

🎯 Why this role?

• High visibility: You’ll lead projects critical to enterprise transformation
• Real ownership: You’ll work directly with exec stakeholders and vendors
