• Discovery & Selection
  • Translate internal stakeholder requests into clear procurement requirements and specs.
  • Conduct targeted market research to identify alternative vendors and benchmark market pricing.
  • Lead clear RFQ/RFP processes and build data-backed comparative analyses (total cost of ownership) to guide buy decisions.
• Execution & Delivery
  • Own the complete purchase lifecycle: vendor sourcing, commercial negotiations, contract routing, and execution.
  • Partner closely with Legal, Finance, and InfoSec to resolve contract bottlenecks and maintain policy compliance.
  • Manage tracking, subscription renewals, non-renewals, and administrative records across 1C ERP and Jira.
• Stakeholder & Vendor Management
  • Act as a trusted commercial advisor to internal teams, guiding them through procurement limits and approval workflows.
  • Build pragmatic vendor relationships, resolve operational/billing disputes, and escalate performance failures early.

Qualifications

• 4+ years of hands-on procurement experience managing indirect categories end-to-end.
• Proven track record of independently negotiating favorable commercial terms, pricing, and SLA structures.
• Experience running structured RFQ/RFP processes and conducting total-cost-of-ownership evaluations.
• Strong working knowledge of 1C ERP systems, Jira, and advanced Google Sheets (formulas, data modeling).
• Practical understanding of commercial contract terms and cross-functional sign-off workflows (Legal/InfoSec/Finance).
• High agency and ability to prioritize dozens of active requests and tight deadline renewals simultaneously.
• Upper-Intermediate English and fluent Ukrainian or Russian.

Nice-to-have
