Leadership role managing IT third-party lifecycle and procurement in a regulated environment, ensuring controlled and efficient vendor and spend management.
О компании
- This role leads IT third-party management and procurement at .com, delivering it against the strategy and priorities set by the VP of IT Operations. You own the full third-party lifecycle (search, onboarding, relationship management and offboarding) and the procurement of hardware, software and IT services, and you make the function the single, front-loaded entry point for buying: fast for the business, controlled for the company. You turn ad hoc, reactive vendor work into defined, repeatable processes that partner teams can rely on, with controls scoped to each vendor's risk. Working in a regulated group (FCA, CySEC and others), you keep third-party risk and spend under control while the business moves at speed, and you lead the IT Procurement team.
Обязанности
- Lead IT third-party management and procurement and deliver it against the strategy and priorities set by the VP of IT Operations.
- Own and run the third-party lifecycle end to end: search, onboarding, relationship management and offboarding, as defined, repeatable processes.
- Own procurement of hardware, software and IT services, from sourcing and negotiation through purchase and renewal, as a single front-loaded entry point.
- Scope controls to vendor risk through triage and tiering: first-pass assessment runs in the team, with Legal, Security, Compliance and IT Compliance confirming under agreed SLAs.
- Design processes from scratch: document procedures, visualise workflows, then roll them out with training, feedback and iteration until they actually work.
- Use process automation and AI to front-load checks and cut manual effort across the lifecycle.
- Partner with Asset Management and FinOps so vendor, contract, spend and asset data stay one non-duplicated source of truth.
- Give Finance and Treasury forward visibility of spend and payments: what, when, how much, which entity, which method.
- Meet third-party regulatory and audit obligations by design (DORA register of information and similar), so reports are extracted, not assembled by hand.
- Line-manage and develop the IT Procurement team; set direction, priorities and quality bars.
