About Chain IQ

Chain IQ is an independent global indirect procurement company providing strategic, tactical, and operational procurement services. Headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland, Chain IQ operates from six main centers and 14 offices worldwide.

Our Team

Our team of experts works to transform procurement within an organization, utilizing market knowledge and insights supported by innovative technology to drive procurement efficiencies.

Our Approach

We apply the latest risk, sustainability, and social responsibility practices to strengthen procurement resilience. Our approach to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) supports ethical operations, business standards, and biodiversity while minimizing environmental impact.

Key Responsibilities

  • Consult and support business partners on all matters relating to the sourcing of professional services, including the development and execution of procurement strategies within complex, high-spend, and highly visible categories.
  • Independently lead the implementation of tender initiatives and contract negotiation as project lead via e-sourcing tools.
  • Establish and maintain close relationships with internal and external business partners as well as vendors, managing a challenging, broad role in a dynamic and fast-paced environment for multiple client accounts.
  • Coordinate commercial, operational, and legal aspects with relevant experts in a cross-functional team.
  • Collaborate on global procurement strategies and implement regional requirements.
  • Provide key stakeholder support in the sourcing lifecycle, including driving sourcing, RFI, RFP, evaluation, drafting, contracting, onboarding, negotiations, operational tasks related to projects and requests, and diverse aspects of supplier management (Total Relationship Portfolio Management).
  • Collaborate on special projects in interdisciplinary (global) teams.

Requirements

  • University degree in business administration, finance, economics, supply chain management, or an equivalent field.
  • Several years (more than 8 years) of progressive experience in indirect procurement of professional services in an international (corporate) environment or in sales/business development at a global professional services firm.
  • In-depth experience in reviewing, negotiating, and executing contracts with vendors, understanding how professional services contracts (including master service agreements and supply orders) are scoped, structured, and cost-controlled. Specific knowledge in sourcing consulting, audit, and tax services is preferred, as well as understanding typical risks and contractual mitigation/management of such.
  • Experience in senior stakeholder management and managing complex vendor/client relationships, including proven ability to build rapport with clients and maintain professionalism in communications with all levels of client stakeholders.
  • Expert knowledge of technologies, processes, and tools as well as contractual and legal aspects of professional services contracts. Secure command of e-sourcing tools (SAP Ariba, Ivalua, Jaggaer, Archlet) is an advantage.
  • Good analytical and conceptual skills and quick understanding of complex content, figures, and interfaces. Ability to utilize procurement and financial data to understand spending trends and leverage that information to identify procurement insights that result in process efficiencies or cost savings for the client.
  • Proactive, flexible, and client-focused personality with excellent negotiation and communication skills. Broad negotiation toolkit and ability to function effectively in the face of volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity.
