This senior individual-contributor role reports to the Director, Sourcing & Category Management, Professional Services.


Key Responsibilities


Set Category Direction & Build Partnerships

  • Develop multi-year category roadmaps that connect business priorities, workforce demand, and supplier capabilities, with strategies tailored to each service model.
  • Maintain deep category expertise in industry trends, emerging capabilities, pricing benchmarks, and supplier markets; advise stakeholders on delivery options and managed services versus staff augmentation.
  • Build stakeholder trust, proactively bring data-backed recommendations to senior leaders, and lead change and adoption of enterprise-first sourcing practices through credibility, collaboration, and education.

Lead Sourcing & Commercial Negotiations

  • Lead competitive sourcing events (RFx, including RFI and RFP) from business requirements and supplier evaluation through award, using total cost of ownership (TCO), should-cost modeling, market benchmarks, and delivery capabilities to guide decisions.
  • Structure and negotiate master service agreements (MSAs), statements of work (SOWs), renewals, and amendments, aligning pricing and terms to business needs—from fixed-fee, consumption-, transaction-, and outcome-based models to labor rates (rate cards and bill rates), staffing markups, and conversion provisions.
  • Partner with Legal, HR, Privacy, Information Security, and operational experts to establish performance measures, service credits, data and workforce protections, and transition and exit requirements.
  • Partner with SOW specialists and program teams to ensure negotiated requirements are accurately reflected in the SAP Fieldglass vendor management system (VMS) and aligned with sourcing policy.

Strengthen Supplier Value & Manage Risk

  • Build a supplier portfolio that balances specialized capabilities, business coverage, competitive tension, and supplier concentration risk.
  • Lead supplier relationship management (SRM), including strategic supplier and commercial reviews to identify innovation and value opportunities, using operational performance insights to inform negotiations, contractual remedies, supplier development, and future sourcing decisions.
  • Address supplier and continuity risks while championing procurement policy, ethical sourcing, regulatory compliance, and stronger sourcing practices.

Deliver Value Through Analytics

  • Establish and track sourcing KPIs for savings, cost avoidance, risk mitigation, and cycle time, alongside supplier performance measures aligned with contractual service commitments.
  • Maintain monthly savings forecasts and a prioritized sourcing pipeline with clear timelines and expected outcomes.
  • Translate spend analysis, contract exposure, market benchmarks, and program data into actionable recommendations and commercial value insights.
