WHY THIS ROLE IS SPECIAL:
- Procurement doesn't exist yet at Joko — you'd be the first hire, building spend governance from scratch with high autonomy and direct exposure to leadership.
- Our spend is heading toward €20M+ in 2027 across tools, infrastructure, marketing, and G&A — what you build has immediate, visible impact.
- You'll work directly with Finance, Legal, BizOps, Marketing, and Tech, negotiating deals that shape how every team operates.
WHAT YOU WILL DO:
- Own vendor negotiations company-wide: marketing & influencer spend, tools, infrastructure, hiring fees, G&A, outsourcing.
- Generate measurable savings on existing spend and ensure every commitment is worth what we're paying for it.
- Build and maintain a vendor performance framework, mapping and rationalizing our supplier base.
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR:
- A senior profile with 6+ years in procurement, vendor negotiation, or strategic sourcing from a tech scale-up, consulting, or corporate procurement background.
- Real, demonstrable experience running vendor negotiations and structuring deals that hold up over time.
- Fluent English and French, with strong stakeholder management and AI-centricity.
