About the Role:

The Sr. Analyst, IT Procurement leads and supports sourcing initiatives and contract negotiations for Subway’s lower-spend, less-complex technology and vendor categories. This is not a purely administrative tracking role — the Sr. Analyst runs competitive bid events, negotiates commercial terms directly with vendors, and owns contracts end-to-end for their assigned categories, while partnering with senior sourcing leadership on larger or more complex deals.

On a given week, the Sr. Analyst might be leading an RFP for a software or services renewal, negotiating pricing and terms directly with a vendor, drafting and redlining a statement of work, or reviewing SLA performance with a technology stakeholder ahead of a renewal decision. Vendor performance tracking and license compliance remain part of the job, but the core of the role is sourcing and negotiations — running the deal and driving meaningful savings and performance improvement, not just monitoring it after the fact.

Reporting to the Director, Technology Sourcing & Procurement, this role partners closely with Technology business owners and managers, and coordinates regularly with stakeholders and Legal teams throughout sourcing, negotiation, and contract execution. It’s a strong seat for someone who wants real, hands-on negotiation experience in their career, can deliver meaningful results, and demonstrate strong leadership with a clear growth path over time.

What You Will Do:

Sourcing Strategy & Negotiation

• Lead or support sourcing initiatives for technology and other indirect categories from opportunity identification through supplier selection
• Run competitive bid events (RFPs/RFIs), building bid packages, evaluation criteria, and comparative analysis to support award recommendations
• Negotiate pricing, commercial terms, and service levels directly with vendors on agreements, escalating higher-risk or higher-value negotiations to senior sourcing leadership
• Use market analysis and benchmarking to identify savings opportunities and inform category strategy

Contract Management & Execution

• Draft, review, and redline standard vendor agreements, statements of work, and amendments for assigned categories, partnering with Legal on nonstandard or higher-risk terms
• Serve as the point of contact between internal business stakeholders and vendors throughout contract development and negotiation, coordinating with Legal as needed
• Track contractual compliance and flag potential risk that contract or scope changes may pose to the organization
• Prepare negotiation and contract status updates for management and help resolve open contract issues

Vendor Performance & Compliance

• Track, measure, and report on vendor service performance through periodic reviews with key stakeholders, monitoring KPIs and SLA compliance
• Maintain license compliance tracking, contract renewal/expiration records, and vendor certification deadlines, flagging risk before it becomes a lapse in coverage

Category & Stakeholder Partnership

• Build strong working relationships with business stakeholders to understand demand and align sourcing strategy with business priorities
• Support the demand management process and identify opportunities for spend consolidation or standardization within assigned categories

Skills & Qualifications:

Technical & Functional Skills

• Sourcing & RFx leadership: able to run RFPs/RFIs end-to-end from bid design, evaluation criteria, comparative analysis, and award recommendation
• Contract negotiation: comfortable leading negotiations on pricing and commercial terms
• Contract drafting & redlining: able to draft and mark-up standard vendor agreements and amendments, escalating higher-risk or nonstandard terms to Legal
• Category & market analysis: uses spend and market data to identify savings opportunities and inform negotiation strategy
• Vendor performance & license compliance: tracks SLA/KPI performance and license usage against entitlement to keep cost and compliance aligned with business need
• Strong Excel and PowerPoint skills for negotiation prep, tracking, and business-ready presentations
• Experience with Procurement tools including CLM and Spend Analytics

Interpersonal & Collaboration Skills

• Confident negotiator: holds firm on the company’s interests while building durable, working vendor relationships
• Clear communicator: translates contract and negotiation detail into plain language for technical staff and business stakeholders
• Reliable coordinator: serves as a dependable liaison between Technology, Procurement, and Legal throughout the sourcing and contracting cycle
• Sound judgment: knows when to close a negotiation independently and when to escalate scope, risk, or value to senior sourcing leadership
• Detail-oriented and organized: manages multiple active sourcing events and contracts at once without dropping details
• Coachable and growth-oriented: eager to build toward a category or sourcing management career path

Experience & Background

• 5+ years of experience in strategic sourcing, procurement, or contract negotiation; technology/IT category experience required, other indirect category experience a plus
• Demonstrated experience independently negotiating and closing lower-dollar, less-complex vendor agreements
• Comfortable drafting and redlining standard commercial contract terms, with good judgment on when to involve Legal
• Working knowledge of the procurement lifecycle from sourcing strategy through contract execution; direct RFx leadership experience preferred
• Experience reading and interpreting vendor license, maintenance, and service agreements
• Proven track record of driving meaningful savings and service level improvements
• Bachelor’s degree in Technology, Engineering, Business, Supply Chain, or a related field, or equivalent work experience
• Experience with e-sourcing, spend or CLM platforms
