Procurement Director

About the Position

Spendbase is a spend management platform that helps companies take control of their SaaS subscriptions, vendor costs, and software spend. We combine AI-powered analytics with expert procurement support to give finance and procurement teams a single source of truth - and the leverage they need to reduce costs, streamline renewals, and make smarter buying decisions.

We're growing fast and looking for a Procurement Director who will be at the core of our customer-facing delivery - shaping how we help companies buy better and spend smarter.

Responsibilities

• Lead procurement engagements for Spendbase customers - from onboarding and spend diagnosis through to savings delivery and renewal cycles
• Drive and participate in vendor negotiations on behalf of customers, covering SaaS renewals, new purchases, and multi-year agreements
• Develop and own procurement methodologies, playbooks, and best practices that scale across the customer base
• Build relationships with key stakeholders (CFOs, Heads of IT, VP Finance) and act as a strategic partner throughout the engagement
• Analyse spend data using Spendbase tooling to identify savings opportunities and build business cases for vendor consolidation or renegotiation
• Collaborate with the Product team to surface customer insights that inform the platform roadmap
• Hire, mentor, and develop a team of procurement analysts and buyers as we scale
• Track and report on savings delivered, engagement health, and KPIs across the portfolio

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in procurement, strategic sourcing, or category management
• Strong track record of leading vendor negotiations and delivering measurable cost savings
• Experience with SaaS or technology procurement (a strong plus)
• Comfortable working directly with senior stakeholders - you can navigate a CFO conversation as easily as a vendor negotiation
• Data-driven mindset - you use spend analytics to build and defend recommendations
• Previous experience in a consultancy, managed services, or customer-facing procurement role is a major plus
• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
• Ability to build and lead a high-performing team

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with SaaS pricing models, licensing structures, and renewal cycles
• Experience working in or with a B2B SaaS company
• CIPS, CPSM, or equivalent procurement certification
• Experience building procurement processes from scratch in a scale-up environment
• Exposure to spend management tools

We Offer

• Competitive compensation and regular performance reviews
• Paid vacation, sick leave, and overtime compensation
• Online medical consultations
• Career growth opportunities through ownership and responsibility
• Remote-first culture with flexible working hours
