About the role
- That is magic at work, and it's what we show up for every day.
- This is not a transactional buying role.
- This is a senior individual contributor role with manager-level accountability and no direct reports.
Responsibilities
- For over 20 years, Smartsheet has empowered teams to manage work seamlessly and scale solutions smarter.
- Smartsheet is looking for an experienced Procurement Manager to lead sourcing and contracting across our IT, Security, Product, and Engineering organizations.
- Let's build what's next, together.
- Partner closely with technical leaders to understand requirements, translate them into sourcing strategies, and drive vendor selection
- Lead RFx events (RFI, RFP, RFQ) end-to-end, structure evaluation criteria, and provide clear recommendations through to contract close
- Develop category strategies and sourcing plans ahead of demand-identifying consolidation opportunities, renewal timing, and strategic vendors before reactive need drives urgency
- Manage a high volume of concurrent sourcing and contracting requests, applying strong project management discipline to prioritize based on business urgency and impact
- Partner with Legal and Finance on governance, policy, and process maturity, helping strengthen how procurement operates as the function and its tooling evolve
Requirements
- 5+ years of procurement manager experience, with a proven track record leading mid-to-large sourcing events and owning category management
Nice to have
- Demonstrated proficiency leveraging AI tools in day-to-day work (e.g., contract review, market research, spend analysis, drafting)
- Experience applying AI to procurement-specific use cases such as intake triage, supplier screening, or sourcing acceleration
- Hands-on experience with Coupa or a comparable procurement platform (e.g., Ariba, Jaggaer)
- Familiarity with intake and orchestration platforms in the modern procurement stack (e.g., Zip, Oro Labs, Omnea, Levelpath)
- Experience with Smartsheet
- At Smartsheet, your ideas are heard, your potential is supported, and your contributions have real impact.
- You'll have the freedom to explore, push boundaries, and grow beyond your role.
- When you're doing work that stretches you, excites you, and connects you to something bigger, that's magic at work.
Benefits
- Own ongoing vendor relationships and portfolio health for your categories-performance, renewals, and risk on a continuous basis, not deal by deal
