About this Role:

In this role, you will act as a core engine for both strategic sourcing and procurement operations. You will fully own the end-to-end sourcing and negotiation lifecycle for our mid-tier spend bucket ($25k–$250k contract value), manage day-to-day procurement operations, and project-manage the digital transformation of our intake-to-pay infrastructure. This is an exceptional opportunity for a builder who loves both negotiation and process optimization.

Responsibilities:

1. Strategic Sourcing & Negotiation (40%)

Proactively manage and execute the sourcing and negotiation lifecycle for $25k–$250k contracts, focusing heavily on SaaS, Tech, and Professional Services.

Develop sourcing strategies that optimize vendor selection, maximize commercial leverage, and protect Lyra’s margins.

2. Procurement Operations & Tech Stack Transformation (40%)

Serve as the dedicated Project Manager for our Intake-to-Pay (P2P) platform implementation, collaborating with IT, Legal, and Finance to ensure a seamless rollout.

Manage day-to-day administration and optimization of our core fintech and procurement tools, including Navan and Brex.

3. Data Analytics & Stakeholder Collaboration (20%)

Act as an Excel power-user; analyze large datasets, identify spend trends, catch auto-renewals early, and eliminate maverick spend.

Sanitize and structure spend data to provide granular insights for our annual Zero-Based Budgeting (ZBB) process.

Build cross-functional relationships with Legal, InfoSec, Privacy, AI, Tech, and FP&A to ensure all operational intake requirements are automated and compliant.

Qualifications:

Experience: 4+ years of progressive experience in strategic sourcing, procurement operations, or supply chain management, preferably within a high-growth tech or healthcare environment.

SaaS & Category Expertise: Proven track record of independently negotiating mid-tier technology (SaaS), Marketing, Consulting, and Professional Services contracts.

Systems Fluent: Hands-on experience with modern Procurement/P2P software and Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) tools. Experience leading or heavily supporting a P2P tool implementation is a massive plus.

Analytical Polish: Advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills with the ability to turn spend data into highly structured, actionable information.

Project Management: Exceptional time-management and project management skills; ability to balance running multiple fast-moving sourcing projects simultaneously with a major software rollout.

Communication: Ability to navigate cross-functional bottlenecks and negotiate effectively with vendors.
