About the role
Leads IT third-party management and procurement at Capital.com, delivering against the strategy and priorities set by the VP of IT Operations. Owns the full third-party lifecycle and the procurement of hardware, software and IT services, ensuring fast, controlled buying within a regulated environment.
Responsibilities
- Lead IT third-party management and procurement and deliver it against the strategy and priorities set by the VP of IT Operations.
- Own and run the third-party lifecycle end to end: search, onboarding, relationship management and offboarding, as defined, repeatable processes.
- Own procurement of hardware, software and IT services, from sourcing and negotiation through purchase and renewal, as a single front-loaded entry point.
- Scope controls to vendor risk through triage and tiering: first-pass assessment runs in the team, with Legal, Security, Compliance and IT Compliance confirming under agreed SLAs.
- Design processes from scratch: document procedures, visualise workflows, then roll them out with training, feedback and iteration until they actually work.
- Use process automation and AI to front-load checks and cut manual effort across the lifecycle.
- Partner with Asset Management and FinOps so vendor, contract, spend and asset data stay one non-duplicated source of truth.
- Give Finance and Treasury forward visibility of spend and payments: what, when, how much, which entity, which method.
- Meet third-party regulatory and audit obligations by design (DORA register of information and similar), so reports are extracted, not assembled by hand.
- Line-manage and develop the IT Procurement team; set direction, priorities and quality bars.
Qualifications
- Experience leading vendor or third-party management and procurement in a regulated organisation (FCA, CySEC or similar); regulated experience is essential.
- A track record of delivering against an agreed strategy and roadmap while bringing your own judgment to reach the outcome.
- Proven ability to build processes from scratch: documenting procedures and visualising workflows.
- Strong process rollout skills: you train people, gather feedback and iterate until the process works in practice, not just on paper.
- Experience running the full vendor lifecycle and IT procurement (sourcing, negotiation, contracts, renewals, offboarding).
- Comfort scoping controls to risk and working with Legal, Security and Compliance as defined interfaces.
- People leadership: you lead a procurement team, set standards and develop people.
- Excellent negotiation and stakeholder skills across business, engineering and control functions.
