## About the role

While strategic cloud and technology partnerships are the anchor of this position, you'll also flex into broader sourcing deals across the team's portfolio as priorities shift — negotiating agreements, running competitive sourcing events, and partnering cross-functionally wherever the business needs strong commercial leadership.

## What they're looking for

- 8+ years of experience in Indirect or Technology Sourcing, with a strong track record negotiating complex technology, SaaS, or cloud agreements in a fast-paced environment
- Direct experience managing strategic relationships with major cloud or technology providers (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft) strongly preferred
- Excellent negotiation skills and broad procurement category management experience (Software, Hardware, SaaS, Cloud, and Professional Services)
- Proven ability to manage a portfolio of both strategic, high-visibility accounts and a rotating set of tactical or ad hoc deals simultaneously
- Excellent customer service skills and the ability to partner with key stakeholders and build relationships across multi-functional teams
- Experience with supplier scorecards and supplier relationship management
