Procurement Senior Manager

Senior Manager of Procurement About The Role

Tebra is a healthcare SaaS company looking for a Senior Manager of Procurement to own the full procurement lifecycle for a ~$200M organization. The role is a single‑owner position that manages a vendor portfolio with over $5M in contracts renewing in the next six months across categories including SaaS, cloud infrastructure, security, and professional services.

You will report to the VP of Accounting and work closely with Legal, Finance, IT Security, and business leaders across the company. Your focus will be on operational discipline and commercial judgment – you will run procurement, not coordinate it.

• Own the end‑to‑end procurement workflow: intake, vendor selection, negotiation, compliance review, contract execution, and repository management.
• Manage daily requisition approvals in Coupa, ensuring deals move efficiently through security, legal, and finance checkpoints.
• Maintain Productiv as the contract repository of record; ensure all executed contracts are uploaded and metadata is current.
• Run a proactive renewal calendar – no contract auto‑renews without a deliberate keep, renegotiate, or exit decision.

• Lead commercial negotiations on SaaS, PaaS, cloud infrastructure, hardware, and facilities contracts – pricing, terms, SOWs, and Master Agreements.
• Drive cost reduction through vendor consolidation, volume discount negotiations, and contract restructuring.
• Partner with Legal on redlines and final review; bring commercial terms locked before involving Legal.
• Manage vendor relationships through renewal cycles and elevate risks to Finance and Legal leadership as needed.

• Serve as the procurement interface for department heads, guiding them through vendor selection, intake, and compliance.
• Support business owners on negotiations where the relationship or complexity warrants procurement involvement; step back when owners can handle the commercial relationship.
• Coordinate compliance reviews – collect required documentation from vendors and route it through appropriate approval channels.

• Own SaaS spend data in Productiv and Coupa; produce regular reporting for Finance leadership on vendor spend, renewal exposure, consolidation opportunities, and realized savings.
• Identify and flag overlapping or under‑utilized vendor contracts proactively.
• Provide input to the rolling forecast process on procurement‑driven OPEX timing and vendor consolidation savings.

• Audit existing procurement workflows and identify friction points – approvals that stall, handoffs that break, renewals that sneak up.
• Lead the adoption of AI and automation tools to accelerate procurement operations – contract review, renewal tracking, spend analysis.
• Ensure process documentation is current and the procurement policy is enforced consistently across the company.

• 5+ years of procurement experience in a SaaS or technology company.
• Demonstrated track record of leading and closing commercial negotiations on SaaS, cloud, and services contracts.
• Experience managing the full procurement compliance stack: IT security review, legal redlines, finance approvals, and signature workflows.
• Hands‑on experience with spend‑management platforms;
  Coupa and Productiv experience is a strong plus.
• Proven ability to drive vendor consolidation and cost savings with measurable results.
• Strong written and verbal communication – able to represent Tebra’s position clearly in vendor negotiations and provide Finance leadership with a clean read on spend and risk.
• Comfortable working independently in a lean structure where you own outcomes, not just tasks.

• Experience using AI tools to accelerate procurement workflows: contract review, renewal tracking, spend analysis, vendor research.
• Background supporting a PE‑backed company where cost discipline and process rigor are expected.
• Familiarity with HIPAA‑adjacent vendor compliance requirements in a healthcare technology environment.

• Competitive compensation:
  Zone 1 (National Average) range $159,000 USD – $182,000 USD.
