Build the function

- Own technology procurement: laptops, peripherals, software licences and IT equipment, including hardware for the Kenya team and future projects.

Manage vendors and contracts
- Lead office rent and workspace negotiations, renewals and exits, in coordination with Legal and Finance.
- Negotiate pricing, payment terms, warranties and service levels with vendors.
- Track vendor performance and renewal deadlines so nothing auto-renews unreviewed.
- Maintain an asset register of company-owned equipment, including issue and return of employee devices.
Control and report
- Review every purchase request for business need, budget availability and correct approval before commitment.
- Report monthly spend, savings achieved and open commitments to the Head of People & Culture and Finance.
- Keep procurement records audit-ready for each entity's local tax and accounting requirements.

Nice to have
- Background in a BPO, shared services or multinational procurement team serving several countries.

- Degree in supply chain, business or a related field; CIPS or similar certification.
BenefitsWork arrangement and what we offer
