Partnering with spend owners to shape requirements, engage the market and ensure Procurement is involved at the right stage.
Leading commercial negotiations alongside Legal, covering pricing models, renewals, contractual obligations and exit arrangements.
Managing a clear pipeline of contracts and renewals, prioritising work and keeping activity on track.
Applying Delegation of Authority and ensuring third-party spend over £25k is reviewed for pricing, governance and compliance.
Ensuring procurement activity complies with internal policies, controls and governance requirements.
Identifying opportunities for cost savings, supplier rationalisation and process improvement.
Supporting effective supplier performance management through proportionate review frameworks and clear KPIs.
Working with Compliance to identify and manage supplier risk, including information security, data protection, financial stability and business continuity.
Supporting sustainable, ethical and transparent procurement in line with System C policy.

A track record of delivering commercial value through renewals and competitive sourcing.
Confidence working with pricing models such as licensing, SaaS and consumption-based pricing.
Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence and present clear recommendations.
A detail-focused, process-driven approach and confidence using Microsoft 365 and P2P systems.

Why join System C
