Procurement Strategy & Market Insights Specialist

Demand validation & consolidation

Test and consolidate business demand before sourcing begins: challenge specifications, separate technical necessity from preference, and aggregate requirements across sites and regions

Build enough technical understanding of each assigned category to question a specification credibly, and know when to bring in internal technical owners as the authority

Convert validated demand into a clear sourcing scope and business case

Supply market intelligence

Map assigned categories: market structure, credible players, capacity, cost drivers, price trends and supply risk

Run primary research alongside desk research: vendor outreach, supplier interviews, site and facility visits. Verify what documents claim

Analyse vendor financial statements to assess financial health, capacity and cost position, including where reporting quality is weak or incomplete

Synthesise findings into short, decision-ready briefs for procurement and business leadership

Cost intelligence: TCO & should-cost

Build should-cost and total cost of ownership models for assigned categories

Quantify the full cost picture: purchase price, installation, operating and maintenance cost, consumables, downtime, and exit or end-of-life cost

Maintain the models so they stay usable across tenders, renewals and budget cycles

Sourcing solution design

Recommend how each category should be sourced: tender versus direct negotiation, single versus multi- source, bundling versus unbundling, lot structure and contract model

Work with stakeholders to design fair evaluation scorecards that select the best overall solution rather than the lowest quote

Ensure information flows to the right function at the right time so that decisions are made on complete inputs

Negotiation targets & deal structure

Set negotiation targets grounded in category cost structure, vendor financial position, market landscape and SPX's leverage

Propose deal structures: pricing mechanism, volume commitment, term, price adjustment, service levels and commercial safeguards

Hand over a clear negotiation brief to the sourcing team and support them analytically through the negotiation

Project leadership

Drive assigned strategic sourcing projects from problem definition to signed contract and handover: timeline, workstreams, stakeholder alignment and escalation

Coordinate inputs from Legal, FP&A, Finance, Payment, BI, and Business unit.

Document outcomes and feed lessons learned back into category strateg
