About the role

  • You'll be based in our New York office, reporting to the Head of IT.
  • Procurement works the strategic head of spend.
  • This role is the oversight layer across all of it: the ~90% of applications that never reach a sourcing process are where risk and sprawl accumulate, and they are yours.

Responsibilities

  • Own the single source of truth for every SaaS and AI application: licenses, entitlements, owners, integrations, and dependencies, kept current by automated discovery.
  • Security's supply-chain-risk program builds its dependency and criticality map from this record, one inventory, two lenses.
  • Manage usage- and token-based pricing, and forecast the volatile AI spend that per-seat license counts miss.
  • Own the commercial and governance substrate for AI tools, the sanctioned-vs-restricted catalog, licensing, and spend. AI Enablement drives adoption and training
  • Build agentic workflows for the function itself (discovery, license reclamation, renewal tracking, provisioning), with a human in the loop where judgment demands it. Anything manual twice a quarter gets automated.
  • Own software and SaaS vendor relationships as an engineering-level partner: roadmap input, escalations, SLAs, and performance reviews. (Hardware, AV, and physical-site vendors sit with Workplace Technology.)
  • Build and run a single front door for software and AI requests: paved paths that encode security, privacy, and spend policy, so the sanctioned route is also the fastest one.
  • We invest in our people with a comprehensive, thoughtfully designed
  • Family Support
  • Global collaboration: Partner with teams and clients across Europe, APAC, and North America.

Requirements

  • 5+ years in software/SaaS asset management, IT vendor management, business systems, IT/enterprise applications, or IT procurement, with clear ownership of license and vendor work.
  • Cost optimization: a track record of license rightsizing, renewal negotiation, tool consolidation, and measurable savings.
  • Commercial fluency: comfortable owning negotiations and reading licensing models, including consumption/usage-based and AI pricing, true-ups, and contract terms.
  • Portfolio tooling: has run SaaS discovery, utilization, and license management at scale (commercial platform, pipelines they built, or both), with grounded opinions on when to buy and when to build.
  • Automation & integration: builds with LLM/agent workflows, iPaaS, and scripts against SaaS APIs (e.g., Python), and uses AI tools daily in their own work.
  • Identity governance: SSO/SAML/OIDC and SCIM (Okta or Entra) and how access drives license consumption.
  • AI-era judgment: has evaluated and governed AI tools and can read AI-vendor data terms.
  • Analytical & cross-functional: builds utilization and forecast models, and partners credibly with Finance, Procurement, Security, and tool owners.

Nice to have

  • Experience at a legal, financial, or otherwise regulated / high-trust company.
  • Has stood up a FinOps practice
  • exposure to procurement and finance systems (Zip, Coupa, NetSuite, Workday/Adaptive).
  • Built process and tooling from scratch at a fast-scaling company.
  • Certifications: ITIL, FinOps Certified Practitioner, or ServiceNow CIS-SAM.
