Indirect Procurement Specialist (AI Infrastructure)

Budget: Open for discussion

About the Company

Our client is a next-generation AI infrastructure provider building the compute backbone for AI applications, with a growing footprint across Singapore and Southeast Asia. As the company scales its team and office presence, it needs someone to build out and run procurement for everything that keeps the business operating day to day.

The Role

Not a siloed category role — you'll be the go-to procurement partner across Engineering, IT, HR, and Admin, balancing startup speed with procurement discipline across the company's full indirect spend.

What You'll Own

• Engineering & Facilities — office fit-outs, FM, lab/engineering equipment, workplace safety
• IT & SaaS — hardware procurement, full-lifecycle SaaS management (AWS/Azure, productivity, security tools), license optimization
• HR & Benefits — corporate insurance, wellness programs, recruitment agency contracts
• Corporate Services — legal, tax, marketing/Public Relations, T&E

Also On Your Plate

• Consolidate fragmented spend across departments for better leverage
• Run end-to-end RFP/RFQ, from market mapping to final negotiation
• Draft and negotiate MSAs/SOWs with Legal
• Build a startup-friendly procurement policy and P2P system
• Track vendor performance against KPIs

What We're Looking For

• Degree in Business, Supply Chain, Engineering or related; CIPS a plus
• 5-8 years in Indirect Procurement, ideally at a fast-growing tech company or scale-up
• Strong grasp of the Singapore vendor landscape (IT distributors, FM contractors, insurance brokers)
• Comfortable switching between engineering-technical and HR/benefits conversations
• Strong negotiator, lean-cost mindset, long-term partnership builder
• Mandarin proficiency would be preferred to coordinate with Mandarin-speaking vendors/business partners

If it sounds like your next move, please don't hesitate to apply. Kindly note that only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. Appreciate your understanding. Data provided is for recruitment purposes only.
