IT Sourcing Manager
Are you experienced in IT sourcing, negotiation, and contracting? Are you driven by building strong supplier relationships and advising stakeholders for optimal business outcomes? If so, you might be the perfect fit for our team. At Tryg, you will collaborate with top suppliers and key internal stakeholders, focusing on Nordic agreements with global suppliers.
About the Job | Drive Strategic IT Sourcing
As an IT Sourcing Manager, you will be a key player in our IT Procurement Team based in Ballerup, with the option to work from our offices in Malmø. Reporting to the Sr. Director of IT & Indirect Procurement, you will drive the planning, execution, and follow-up on a portfolio of strategic suppliers as well as IT sourcing and purchasing activities.

Your primary tasks will include:
- Analyzing and understanding the IT category spend
