We are searching for a Procurement Specialist to join our Procurement team.

By taking ownership of operational execution, this role enables the Procurement Manager to focus on strategic initiatives, supplier risk management, and cross-company governance.

What you'll do:

• Execute operational procurement activities, including PR (Purchase Request) checks, supplier sourcing and onboarding, legal and commercial negotiations, and purchase workflow management in line with procurement policies.
• Act as the operational point of contact between business stakeholders and suppliers to ensure smooth and timely execution of procurement activities.
• Maintain accurate supplier master data and support due diligence requirements such as Information Security Assessments and GDPR checks.
• Coordinate supplier onboarding with internal stakeholders to ensure compliance, data quality, and timely completion.
• Manage contract lifecycle administration, including contract creation, renewals, expirations, obligation tracking, and key milestones.
• Ensure contract documentation, including DORA-related requirements, is complete, up to date, and audit-ready.
• Support Source-to-Contract (S2C) processes by maintaining data integrity and guiding stakeholders through sourcing, onboarding, and contract workflows.
• Ensure correct application of procurement controls, policies, and compliance requirements across all activities.
• Maintain operational continuity within Procurement by safeguarding predictable turnaround times and service quality.
• Identify operational bottlenecks and contribute to continuous improvement within the existing procurement framework.

Who you are:

• Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Finance, Law, Supply Chain, or a comparable field.
• At least 1 year of experience in procurement, vendor management, contract administration, or a comparable operational role.
• Hands-on experience executing structured processes and working with approval workflows.
• Solid understanding of procurement fundamentals, including sourcing, onboarding, contracting, and supplier management.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to maintain accurate records and documentation.
• Proven ability to work effectively with internal stakeholders and external suppliers.
• Comfortable working in structured and regulated environments.
• Professional fluency in English, both written and spoken.
• Experience with procurement systems, contract management tools, or S2C platforms is a plus.
• Experience in a regulated environment (financial services, FinTech, banking, or insurance) and familiarity with DORA are considered strong assets.

What you'll get:

• A monthly salary based on your experience, plus a fixed 13th month.
• Room and budget to build, learn, and grow, including a continuous growth and training budget of €2,000 per year.
• Office lunch, beverages, and fruit.
• Travel allowance and home office equipment.
• Epic trips and activities, both with your local office and with LYNX international.

Who we are:

"LYNX helps you invest in yourself"

"Working at LYNX means joining the LYNX family"

"The development opportunities make LYNX the best place to work"

This is what employees say about LYNX, and it is exactly what we aim to offer: a work environment where you can get the best out of yourself. From our offices in the heart of Amsterdam, Ghent, Berlin, and Prague, we work every day to provide both private and professional clients with the best trading opportunities, through a fast, user-friendly, and reliable trading platform.

LYNX is an international FinTech offering a relaxed and informal work environment, where over 300 people have been contributing to the success of our customers since 2006.

In 2006, LYNX entered the investor market with two clear spearheads: very low rates and an extensive product range. This made the online broker successful not only in the Netherlands, but also internationally. With offices in Belgium, Germany, and the Czech Republic, LYNX now offers its services in ten different countries, making it a European broker of scale.

In 2019, the LYNX product — and therefore the offering for investors — was significantly enhanced. A highly advanced mobile and tablet app was introduced, LYNX Masterclass webinars are available weekly via the Knowledge Portal, and through the Morning Call, investors are kept informed daily about the latest developments in the financial markets.
