At Google we spend hundreds of millions of dollars with vendors every year. The Supplier Sourcing team gets things done for Google, from tasks like buying hardware, software and professional services to managing facilities and various technology services globally. Through the strong and unique relationships we have with internal stakeholders and the right vendors, our team ensures that Google gets the best value for our purchases. As a member of a larger team, you drive a number of procurement-related activities such as guiding vendors through our shifting needs and supplying internal clients with sound purchasing advice. You craft and lead a multi-step sourcing process and innovative e-auctions to finalize high-dollar, high-risk proposals and contract negotiations. In some cases, you secure competitive rates for Google by translating our business needs into familiar "commodity" terms for the marketplace.
The Google Procurement Organization's (GPO) goal is to unlock value for Google to reinvest in what matters most. We do this by bringing velocity, efficiency, and security to buying at Google, while partnering deeply across Google to deliver solutions fit for purpose. The organization fosters a culture of collaboration and innovation while providing opportunities for ongoing career growth and development.
