Toronto, Canada Grant Thornton Full time

**Who we are**
You know those big cities that still feel like small towns? Where everyone’s friendly and helps each other out? That’s like Grant Thornton. Except here we’re all professionals and there isn’t a mayor or a general store. What we’re trying to say is that we’re a large and growing professional services firm that still feels like a community. We employ over 3000 people across Canada, and we truly care about our colleagues, our clients and the communities where we work and live. That’s what’s most important to us. We’re building a thriving organization that’s purpose driven and still want to remember what your favourite milkshake flavour is.

**As a Procurement Specialist your responsibilities will include**:

- Review, Negotiate and file agreements such as MSAs for SAAS and professional services contracts

Create PO’s upon getting appropriate requisition approvals, and issue PO’s, obtain PO confirmation and track PO status with the vendor
- Assist with invoice and agreement discrepancy resolution with vendors and internal clients
- Verify and modify requisitions to make sure tax code, delivery address, pricing and other conditions are in line with the Agreements and business requirements
- Work with requesters to gather business requirements and obtain quotes from vendors
- Provide assistance on sourcing activities, e.g. conduct market research and vendor due diligence for establishing sourcing strategy, execution of Non-Disclosure Agreements, etc.
- Prepare, analyze and maintain reports and databases regarding procurement-related activities and spend on goods and services
- Assist and educate requisitioners with procurement processes and procedures

Take a proactive approach to duties and responsibilities, and provide suggestions for improvement to procurement process efficiency and effectiveness
- Other duties as assigned and required

**Be Grant Thornton**
If you’re a bit like us, you’re driven to connect with how others are feeling and thinking. Here we walk in others shoes before taking action. Just imagine being part of a team that puts “we before me”, where flexAbility is a mindset, and where you trust your colleagues to have your back. At Grant Thornton, you’ll work with inspiring leaders who support your development, both personally and professionally. This is a place where your insatiable curiosity enables you to think, see and hear from a variety of perspectives, a place where every day is different and having the courage to grow is part of who you are. And when all this comes together, well that’s when the magic happens

**Think you’ve got what it takes to be a Procurement Specialist? Like the colour purple? Great. Here's a few more boxes we’re also hoping you can tick**:

- Post-Secondary education in a relative field of study or equivalent
- 2-3 years of contract management experience in a procurement role in a centralized environment
- Experience negotiating SaaS contracts is a must
- Technical knowledge of procurement policies and procedures, directives, legal opinions, vendor responses to procurement requests and experience required
- Knowledge of procurement contracts and related RFX documentations, including Negotiated RFPs and strategies, evaluation approaches and formats
- Strong analytical, customer service, and collaboration skills
- Proficient mathematical skills
- High level of integrity and accountability
- Solid attention to detail with consistent follow-through
- Ability to prioritize and execute tasks effectively
- Solid organizational skills, including multi-tasking and the ability to work under pressure
- Ability to work both independently and as part of a team
- Aptitude for learning and adhering to existing standardized policies, processes and procedures
- Committed to excellence and getting the job done
- Excellent interpersonal skills with a positive, “client first” focus

At Grant Thornton we’re focused on making a difference in the lives of our clients, our colleagues and our communities. That’s our purpose. Or, as we like to say, living our purple.

**What's in it for you?**

Profit sharing, Flex days, RRSP contributions, Firmwide holiday closure, Wellness benefits, Concierge-like benefits, Work from anywhere in Canada in the summer for 4 weeks, and more
