Description

We are looking for an experienced Supply Chain/Procurement Specialist/Manager to support procurement operations and strategic sourcing for a growing organization in San Francisco. This long-term contract opportunity is well suited for a mid-level candidate who can independently manage purchasing activities, collaborate with internal stakeholders, and improve procurement processes in a fast-moving environment. The role will focus on operational excellence, supplier engagement, and data-informed decision-making across IT, software, infrastructure, and business functions.

Responsibilities:

Oversee the full procurement cycle, including intake of purchase requests, supplier setup, purchase order coordination, agreement administration, and spend tracking.

Work closely with teams such as Finance, Engineering, IT, Marketing, and other business units to understand requirements and deliver practical sourcing support.

Contribute to sourcing initiatives by researching supplier markets, preparing bid documents, evaluating responses, and helping identify the best fit for business needs.

Guide vendor discussions and support negotiation efforts related to pricing, terms, service levels, and overall commercial value.

Lead initiatives that streamline procurement workflows, strengthen policy adherence, and improve the use of procurement systems and tools.

Create and maintain process documentation, user instructions, training content, and best-practice resources for internal stakeholders.

Analyze purchasing and vendor data to identify spending patterns, opportunities for savings, and areas of operational risk.

Support procurement activity related to technology, software, infrastructure, and other specialized service categories as needed.

Requirements - At least 5 years of experience in procurement operations, strategic sourcing, supply chain management, or a closely related field.

Practical experience with procurement and finance platforms such as Zip, NetSuite, Coupa, or comparable systems.

Strong analytical ability with advanced use of Excel or Google Sheets and familiarity with reporting or business intelligence tools.

Demonstrated success leading cross-functional projects focused on process improvement and operational efficiency.

Clear written and verbal communication skills with the ability to produce documentation and deliver stakeholder training.

Working knowledge of procurement controls, supplier risk considerations, and compliance expectations.

Ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, and perform effectively in a fast-paced environment.

Certification such as CPSM is a plus, and experience supporting technology-focused procurement is beneficial.
