Job description

Finance & Legal · Vienna · FullTime · Senior level

How it fits the AI era

Much of the spend sits with AI and cloud vendors, so the role involves judging fast changing contracts and usage based pricing. Routine tracking, renewals and spend reporting can lean on software and automation, which the posting expects the hire to wire into accounting. What stays human is negotiation, vendor judgment and the risk calls on data and security.

How it builds AI experience

Working at an AI phone assistant company means buying LLM, telephony and cloud services, so the hire gains direct exposure to how AI vendors price and contract. That knowledge builds through running those negotiations and due diligence. It is a practical grounding in AI procurement rather than hands on model work.

Worth showing

• Built procurement from scratch
• Measurable savings record
• Procurement tool implementation
• SaaS and cloud buying
• GDPR and vendor risk checks
