[Hiring] Procurement Specialist @JustMarkets

Role Description

• Manage assigned procurement requests from requirements clarification and supplier sourcing through evaluation, recommendation for approval and contract signing.
• Run tenders end to end: agree the requirements with the internal customer, build the longlist and shortlist, collect and compare proposals, and recommend the award.
• Break down and challenge vendor estimates – unit prices, quantities, hours, mark-ups and additional costs, where applicable – and document the savings achieved.
• Negotiate commercial terms and prepare contracts within the delegation of authority; recommend the vendor choice and escalate anything above own authority level.
• Own renewals: track expiry dates, open negotiations ahead of time and prevent automatic renewals on unfavourable terms.
• Benchmark the cost of goods and services against the market and maintain a price reference for recurring purchases.
• Coordinate requirements and timelines with internal customers to meet agreed business deadlines.
• Consolidate spend across the group’s brands and entities to gain volume leverage, and keep the vendor portfolio and contract terms transparent.
• Report hard savings and cost avoidance in the format agreed with Finance (like-for-like, confirmed baseline, no double counting).
• Work inside the group’s procure-to-pay process and controls: contracting only after vendor onboarding and KYB are complete; payment execution and accounts-payable bookkeeping sit outside this role.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of hands-on experience in procurement, including supplier sourcing, commercial negotiations and contract management.
• Sourcing of goods and services: understanding what the business buys, segmenting vendors and building a sourcing plan.
• Reading and breaking down vendor estimates: the ability to challenge an estimate line by line.
• End-to-end tender management: RFI / RFP, evaluation criteria, comparable bid analysis on a like-for-like / total-cost basis.
• Commercial negotiation and savings discipline: the difference between hard savings and cost avoidance, and how to build a baseline that Finance will confirm.
• Commercial terms of supplier contracts: scope of work, SLA and service KPIs, rate escalation clauses, renewal and termination terms; working with Legal on the paperwork.
• Renewals management and market benchmarking of recurring goods and services.
• Understanding of procure-to-pay controls: delegation of authority, segregation of duties, vendor KYB and master data as a prerequisite for contracting and payment.
• Understanding of IT equipment and technical specifications, with the ability to clarify requirements and compare supplier proposals.
• Advanced Excel / Google Sheets for spend analysis and bid comparison.
• English B2+

Requirements

• Background in fintech, financial brokerage, or global corporate environments will be a plus.
