Procurement Lead - Telco

Design and roll out Airalo's procurement policy, delegation-of-authority thresholds, supplier onboarding, and competitive-tendering standards.

Establish clear, proportionate approval workflows that bring control without slowing the business.

Own the category strategies across the major spend areas: network and infrastructure spends, S&M (agencies, media, martech), IT and SaaS, and professional services.

Build single source of truth with spends visibility and a vendor taxonomy so we know what we buy, from whom, and on what terms; build standardization and a framework to adhere to credit terms.

Maintain a validated savings pipeline reported with Finance, and ensure segregation of duties, audit trail, and anti-fraud controls aligned to the SOX-lite framework.

Lead competitive sourcing and high-value negotiations on a total-cost-of-ownership basis; set and deliver savings targets and improve working capital.

Partner with Finance's zero-based budgeting and the process to convert sourcing wins into budgeted savings;

Own master agreements, a renewals calendar, supplier performance, and third-party risk and due diligence.
