Procurement Category Manager

Source2One Procurement

Source2One is seeking an experienced procurement professional who knows how to turn sourcing opportunities into measurable, realized savings.

We are an operator-led procurement value creation firm that partners with public and private equity-owned companies as an extension of their procurement teams. Our clients pay us based on the savings we deliver, with no retainers or management fees.

What You’ll Do

• Lead sourcing initiatives across professional services, HR services, marketing, travel, facilities, and other corporate services categories

• Analyze spend, supplier contracts, and business requirements to identify actionable savings opportunities

• Manage RFPs, evaluate proposals, and negotiate pricing and commercial terms

• Work directly with stakeholders and suppliers to implement agreements

• Track and validate realized savings

• Own initiatives from spend analysis through sourcing, negotiation, implementation, and savings realization

What We’re Looking For

• Demonstrated experience sourcing and negotiating corporate services categories

• A proven track record of implementing savings while maintaining service quality

• Strong commercial judgment, stakeholder management, and negotiation skills

• The ability to work independently and manage multiple client initiatives

• Experience supporting procurement transformation or private equity portfolio companies is a plus

This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, solving procurement challenges, and seeing their work translate directly into financial results.

This is a 100% remote role.

Compensation is 100% performance-based.
