Montvale, New Jersey, United States TSR Consulting Full time
About TSR Consulting:
TSR Consulting is a relationship-based, customer-focused IT and technical services staffing company. With over 40 years of experience, we have earned the respect of companies both large and small with well-refined candidate screening, timely placement, and a real understanding of the right skill sets required by our clients.

We believe in building a company around our vision, which is to make every employee's voice matter, their effort appreciated, and their talent rewarded. We challenge each employee daily to raise the bar on how we treat our consultants and candidates. For far too long in this industry, candidates have been ghosted, lied to, or placed at a client and then forgotten about. Our staff works tirelessly at qualifying and placing top talent with our clients in a compassionate and caring manner. Not every candidate is a match for the job, but every candidate and consultant will be treated with respect and professionalism.

Job Summary:
We are seeking a Procurement Category Manager III on a contract basis for a leading utility company. The selected candidate will work remotely and will not be required to report to any onsite location. However, the hiring manager is based in Montvale, NJ, and would welcome any candidates who can work onsite at the Montvale office 1x per week.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Provide expert knowledge in buying Technology products and services, including outsourcing, to create strategies for the purchase of products and services. This involves examining spending data, understanding market trends, collecting category-specific information, and considering business needs.
  • Create and lead the development of Request for Proposals and Requests (RFP) Requests for Quotes (RFQ) to effectively buy Technology products and services. Work with cross-functional teams to gather requirements, define evaluation criteria, and ensure adherence to organizational policies. Manage the whole RFx process, including scope development, issuing RFPs, coordinating supplier responses, and conducting evaluations. Lead negotiations with suppliers to secure beneficial terms and conditions. Keep accurate documentation and records of the RFP process.
  • Write, review, and negotiate contract terms with suppliers to ensure beneficial terms and compliance with legal and organizational requirements. This includes defining services, equipment specifications, project timing, cancellation and termination terms, acceptance criteria, service level agreements (SLA), and key performance indicators (KPI).
  • Perform thorough data analysis and create financial models such as ROI, NPV, supplier scorecards, savings tracking, and make vs. buy decision models. Use these models to execute strategic sourcing projects using established sourcing practices with the goal of delivering value in collaboration with key stakeholders throughout the organization.
  • Establish influence within the organization, evaluate existing practices, and challenge the status quo when necessary. Ensure adherence to procurement policies and foster strong, trusting relationships with stakeholders and business partners.
  • Support effective supplier performance management and foster the development of new capabilities through collaboration with suppliers and key stakeholders. Provide feedback to suppliers regarding their performance, encourage continuous improvement and innovation. Proactively identify and address any performance issues by working closely with internal stakeholders and suppliers, ensuring efficient resolution.
