Global Sourcing Specialist – IT Procurement (Contract, Hybrid NYC)

New York, NY (Hybrid, 3 days on-site) | Full Time | Contract (W2) | Mid-Senior Level | Start: late November 2026 | 6 months

MaxIT Consulting – Max Corporate Group is looking for a Global Sourcing Specialist focused on IT Procurement to join a global company in the insurance and risk advisory industry, working from its New York office.

You will own the end-to-end sourcing and contracting of IT goods and services — hardware, software and SaaS, cloud and hosting — partnering with legal, risk and technology teams in a highly regulated, global environment.

THE CHALLENGE

The organization buys a broad and complex IT portfolio across regions. This role brings hands-on, in-house procurement discipline to that spend: running competitive sourcing events, negotiating commercial and contractual terms, and turning multi-layered agreements into contracts that protect the business and deliver measurable savings.

It is a high-visibility position for a procurement professional who enjoys negotiating with technology vendors and working closely with legal and governance stakeholders.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Manage the end-to-end IT procurement lifecycle: sourcing, supplier evaluation and selection, negotiation, contracting and renewals.
• Lead complex negotiations for IT goods, services, software/SaaS, cloud/hosting and supplies to reduce cost while meeting business goals.
• Evaluate and select suppliers against price, quality, timing and reliability standards.
• Review price proposals, financial information and other data to determine reasonable pricing.
• Initiate and manage contract administration with vendors in line with sourcing goals.
• Read contracts, perform light drafting and assemble multi-layered agreements (MSA, DPA, AI addenda, security terms).
• Work with legal, risk and governance teams to manage compliance requirements.
• Implement long-term supply strategies and work with suppliers to assure capacity and continuity of supply.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Around 7 years of professional experience, including at least 3–5 years in IT procurement.
• Operational, in-house procurement experience (not only consulting).
• Experience in financial services and in global procurement.
• Procurement of IT infrastructure: hardware, SaaS/software, cloud/hosting, FinOps, storage, telecom/mobility, networks, messaging and security.
• Solid understanding of contracting processes: MSAs, renewals, termination and renewal clauses.
• Experience working with legal, risk and governance teams on compliance requirements.
• A track record of strategic sourcing initiatives with measurable cost savings or business value.
• Bachelor's degree.
• Fluent English, as the role negotiates with vendors and stakeholders daily.

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience with AI-related contract terms and data protection agreements.
• Exposure to FinOps or cloud cost management.
