Manager, Indirect Procurement

Job Description

Comoto is moving fast, and our procurement engine needs to keep pace. We are looking for a Procurement Manager to take the reins of our established Goods Not For Resale (GNFR) function and professionalize it for our next chapter of growth. Reporting directly to the CFO, you won’t be starting from a blank page; instead, you’ll be the strategic lead tasked with optimizing our existing vendor ecosystem and maturing our processes. This is a role for a high-level collaborator who can navigate a complex retail landscape, refine our contract standards, and ensure every partnership we have is working as hard as we are.

Our Next Procurement Manager Will:

• Master the Spend Map: Take ownership of all non-merchandise spend, transforming fragmented departmental purchasing into a cohesive, high-leverage strategy.
• Negotiate with Purpose: Lead high-stakes negotiations, focusing on long-term value, service levels, and risk protection rather than just the lowest bid.
• Bridge the Gap: Act as a strategic consultant to our Executive Leadership Team (ELT), helping them navigate vendor selections that fuel their specific goals.
• Build the Engine: Design and implement best-in-class procurement processes that are scalable, transparent, and built for a high-growth environment.
• Protect the Road: Deeply analyze contracts and SLAs to ensure our partners are as committed to our success as we are, minimizing organizational exposure.
