Job description

Are you looking for high-visibility role within a global energy trading business, sitting directly in the CIO office?

This is not a traditional procurement position — it’s a commercially focused role with real ownership, influence, and exposure at senior level.

You’ll take full control of technology spend (software, IT services, market data) and play a key role in driving cost optimisation, vendor strategy, and procurement transformation across a fast-paced global environment.

What You’ll Do

• Own end-to-end IT procurement across software, services, and market data
• Lead vendor and commercial negotiations, managing key supplier relationships
• Optimise technology spend, ensuring value, compliance, and scalability
• Manage software & market data licensing, including renewals and usage optimisation
• Partner with IT, Finance, and business leadership to support strategic decisions
• Drive reporting and spend insights, improving financial visibility and control
• Champion transformation, introducing automation, data, and AI-driven processes
• Promote a more strategic procurement culture across a fast-moving trading business

What We’re Looking For

• Experience in IT procurement, commercial management, or technology finance (3+years)
• Exposure to software licensing and/or market data (highly advantageous)
• Strong commercial mindset and negotiation skills
• Ability to work with senior stakeholders in a fast-paced environment
• Interest in process improvement, automation, and data-driven decision-making
• Proactive, adaptable, and comfortable operating at both strategic and hands-on level

Why Join

• High visibility role with direct exposure to senior leadership
• Opportunity to shape procurement strategy in a global organisation
• Work in a dynamic, trading-driven environment where decisions matter
• Drive real impact through cost optimisation, innovation, and transformation
