Position Location Details: You will be able to work remotely, from your home location, in the United States
Purpose and Scope
The Senior Global Category Manager is responsible for developing and executing global procurement strategies with third-party suppliers in support of Fresenius Medical Care's One Procurement strategy. This senior leadership role drives end-to-end category management, strategic sourcing, high-stakes supplier negotiations, complex contracting, and ongoing supplier lifecycle management for the IT Software portfolio. This includes enterprise software, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), cloud applications, and emerging Artificial Intelligence (AI) and AI-as-a-Service (AIaaS) solutions. The role coordinates closely with Procurement Partners, IT Architecture, and senior stakeholders to elevate procurement from a transactional function to a strategic enabler, integrating early into budgetary and architectural planning.
Principal Duties and Responsibilities
Core Responsibilities and Strategic Leadership
The Senior Global Category Manager is accountable for the end-to-end strategic lifecycle of all assigned IT Software and AI spend categories globally, driving optimization, innovation, and value creation.
Category Strategy & Execution
  • Global Software Portfolio Strategy: Develop and execute multi-year global category and sub-category strategies covering Enterprise Applications (ERP, CRM), SaaS, Cloud Software, and commercial AI/Machine Learning solutions.
  • AI & Emerging Tech Sourcing: Serve as the global procurement subject matter expert for AI technologies. Architect and execute sourcing strategies for AI-as-a-Service platforms, contract intelligence software, automated redlining tools, and LLM integrations, balancing rapid deployment with strict corporate guidelines.
  • Market & Tech Intelligence: Maintain expert, forward-looking knowledge of global IT market trends, cloud hyperscaler marketplaces, AI compliance shifts, software publisher monetization changes (e.g., shifts from user-based to consumption-based models), and the competitive landscape.
  • Demand Aggregation & Standardization: Collaborate closely with IT Architecture, Digital Transformation teams, and Business Partners to harmonize cross-functional software requirements, eliminate application redundancy, aggregate global demand, and standardize software specifications across regions.
  • Comprehensive Risk Mitigation: Develop and deploy robust supply risk mitigation strategies addressing software compliance, aggressive licensing audits (e.g., Oracle, SAP, Microsoft), data privacy regulations (GDPR/HIPAA), AI data governance, cybersecurity vulnerabilities, and SaaS service-level continuity.

Strategic Sourcing & Negotiation Excellence
  • High-Value Sourcing Initiatives: Lead complex, cross-functional global sourcing initiatives (RFx) for high-value, business-critical software and AI platforms, transforming technical requirements into highly favorable commercial frameworks.
  • Advanced Commercial Modeling: Utilize sophisticated analytical techniques to establish aggressive negotiation targets, utilizing software asset management (SAM) data, shelf-ware metrics, and cloud consumption modeling to optimize lifetime value.
  • Complex Contract Negotiation: Lead negotiations for complex legal, intellectual property (IP), and commercial terms. Ensure ironclad protections regarding AI data ownership, data training models, software security indemnifications, and multi-tenant cloud hosting parameters.
  • Financial Stewardship & Cost Control: Partner with IT Finance and leadership during budgetary planning cycles by providing critical software market data, maintenance escalation projections, and cost forecasts. Actively support IT in rigorous cost control, mitigating unbudgeted auto-renewal exposures, and driving the achievement of committed global savings goals.

Supplier & Stakeholder Management
  • Top-Tier Vendor Governance: Manage strategic, long-term relationships with Tier-1 software publishers and AI providers, maintaining direct executive-level channels to align performance, innovation roadmaps, and commercial structures.
  • Structured Performance Reviews: Lead regular, highly structured Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) to monitor SaaS uptime, SLA adherence, AI model accuracy/performance metrics, and evaluate financial or compliance risks.
  • Strategic Business Partnering: Serve as the premier procurement business partner to the CIO's organization, ensuring software procurement pipelines align seamlessly with enterprise digital roadmaps and cloud-first initiatives.
  • Digital Procurement Advocacy: Champion and drive the adoption of digital procurement tools (including eSourcing, CLM, Spend Visibility, and S2P platforms) across the category to maximize process efficiency and spend transparency.

Physical Demands and Working Conditions
  • Standard corporate office environment or approved remote/hybrid setup.
  • 5% - 10% international and domestic travel is required.

Supervision
  • Accountable for managing cross-functional, virtually matrixed project teams across global regions (including the US, Europe, and Asia-Pacific).

Education
  • Degree Requirements: Bachelor's Degree in a technical field (Computer Science, Information Systems), Business Administration, or Supply Chain Management required.
  • Advanced Degrees: MBA or Master's degree in a related field is highly desired.
  • Certifications: CPSM (Certified Professional in Supply Chain Management), CIPS, or professional certifications in Software Asset Management (CSAM) or AI procurement are a strong plus.

Experience and Required Skills
  • Deep Category Experience: Minimum of 8 to 10 years of progressive experience in Strategic Sourcing and Category Management, with a definitive track record of direct ownership over complex IT Software, Enterprise SaaS, and digital solutions.
  • AI Sourcing Track Record: Proven, hands-on experience sourcing and negotiating AI-driven platforms, automated analytics tools, or advanced technology consulting services. Must demonstrate an understanding of data privacy, IP implications, and commercial models unique to AI software.
  • Global Executive Leadership: Demonstrated ability to lead, influence, and partner effectively with senior technology executives and C-level stakeholders without direct authority.
  • Ambiguity & Decisiveness: Exceptional capacity to navigate high-ambiguity environments, making sound strategic recommendations or rapid procurement decisions based on complex, shifting, or incomplete data sets.
  • Advanced Analytics & Data Interpretation: High proficiency in financial modeling, software license compliance analytics, and interpreting complex spend visibility dashboards. Expert level in Microsoft Office Suite (advanced Excel and PowerPoint).
  • Global Matrix Management: Proven experience working in and managing virtual, geographically dispersed, cross-cultural sourcing teams. Expert ability to tailor communication styles to align stakeholders across diverse regional and cultural backgrounds.
  • Strategic Negotiation Mastery: Expert negotiation skills, with documented success in executing high-impact, multi-million-dollar enterprise software agreements with major global publishers.
  • Agile & Project Management: Strong project management expertise with the ability to shepherd multiple fast-paced software initiatives from initial roadmap planning through global deployment. Familiarity with Agile frameworks and ways of working.
  • Language Skills: Absolutely fluent in English (written and spoken) with exceptional presentation capabilities.

Other Specialized Knowledge Required
  • Advanced IT Purchasing & Sourcing: Master-level understanding of the 7-step strategic sourcing process, software asset management, and global bidding structures.
  • Software Commercial Architectures: In-depth knowledge of software licensing methodologies, cloud subscription architectures, indirect use compliance, maintenance support structures, and total cost of ownership (TCO) concepts.
  • Legal and Regulatory Frameworks: Comprehensive understanding of software contract terms, including end-user license agreements (EULAs), software-as-a-service agreements, data processing addendums (DPAs), and information security exhibits.
