Procurement Manager

Uppgiften

As Procurement Manager, you’ll lead a team of 10 to 15 people across Taiwan, the UK and Finland, and build our procurement function from the ground up. We buy GPUs, servers, networking and data center hardware faster than most procurement teams were built to handle, and you’ll make sure we secure the right hardware, at the right cost, in time for every data center build. You’ll set the processes, own key supplier relationships and be the person the rest of the business comes to for anything procurement. Lead the procurement team directly and through a Team Lead in Taiwan. Coach a young team, manage performance and help with the daily work. Build our procurement processes: sourcing, purchase-to-pay, supplier onboarding, approvals, contracts and reporting. Own relationships with selected OEMs, ODMs and distributors: negotiate, escalate and secure allocation in tight markets. Be the single front door for stakeholder requests from Infrastructure, Engineering, Finance and Operations. Set priorities and protect the team’s focus. Plan purchasing around data center build schedules, and manage supply risk, lead times and total cost of ownership.
