The posting
Help Deliver the Future of Usage-Based Billing LogiSense is looking for a Strategic Sourcing Manager who is commercially minded, highly organized, and energized by the opportunity to build a modern procurement function from the ground up.
This role will help strengthen how we source, negotiate, govern, and manage the software, cloud, technology, and operational services that support our business.
Reporting directly to our VP, Finance & Treasurer, you will have the opportunity to function strategically with executive visibility and accountability for driving procurement strategy and enterprise value.
You will own vendor and contract lifecycle management across LogiSense , with a primary focus on SaaS, cloud, technology, and operational service providers. You will also support broader enterprise procurement initiatives, including compliance vendors, audit and SOC engagements, operational services, and strategic third-party partnerships.
At LogiSense , we believe billing should be simple and transparent. Our cloud-based billing and monetization platform helps innovative companies automate and scale complex usage-based and subscription billing models across telecommunications, cloud services, SaaS, and technology industries.
The systems behind that mission must be scalable, secure, and commercially sound - and this role will help make that possible. Why Join LogiSense ?
