Description
About the role
We’re looking for a Global Sourcing Lead to join our Procurement team in Tallinn, Estonia. You’ll be the strategic partner bridging business demand and procurement delivery for some of our fastest-growing verticals, driving commercial value at global scale. If you thrive in high-complexity, high-impact environments and know how to turn stakeholder relationships into procurement results, this one’s for you.
The Global Sourcing Lead is a senior role within Procurement team, sitting at the intersection of business strategy and commercial delivery. Reporting to the Head of Sourcing – Operations, you’ll act as the primary procurement partner for Bolt’s key verticals, including Delivery and Drive.
This isn’t a back-office procurement role. You’ll work directly with vertical leadership to shape procurement priorities, lead high-value sourcing initiatives, and build the supplier relationships that underpin Bolt’s commercial performance globally. You’ll also play an active role in developing the Procurement function itself.
Main tasks and responsibilities:
- Act as the strategic procurement partner for verticals, building trusted relationships with vertical leadership and translating business priorities into actionable procurement strategies and demand roadmaps.
- Lead end-to-end high-value sourcing initiatives, including RFx processes (using Workday/Zicus), bid evaluation, supplier selection recommendations, and stakeholder guidance throughout.
- Develop negotiation strategies and lead commercial negotiations, securing enterprise-wide agreements that minimise risk and deliver measurable value, including drafting SOWs, SLAs, and other commercial terms.
- Build and manage strategic supplier relationships across the verticals, covering performance management, contract compliance, proactive renewal planning, and regular supplier business reviews.
- Monitor market trends, conduct spend analysis, and run benchmarking activity to surface commercial opportunities and keep procurement strategy informed by accurate, actionable data.
- Ensure full compliance with Bolt’s procurement policies and the Enterprise Risk Management Framework, acting as an escalation point for vertical procurement issues and contributing to continuous function development.
About you
- Proven experience in strategic procurement or sourcing, ideally within a global, fast-growth, or technology-led environment.
- Strong track record leading complex, high-value commercial negotiations and delivering measurable savings across a portfolio of supplier agreements.
- Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills, with experience advising and partnering with senior business leaders across multiple functions or verticals.
- Confident with procurement data: spend analytics, benchmarking, and total cost of ownership modelling are a natural part of how you work.
- Clear, credible communicator in English, able to present procurement strategies and recommendations to diverse audiences.
- Familiarity with RFx tools and procurement platforms, ideally including Workday or similar.
Why you’ll love it here:
- Accelerate your professional growth with unique career opportunities.
- Enjoy a rewarding salary and stock options, knowing that as Bolt succeeds, so do you.
- Take care of your physical and mental health with our wellness perks.
- Celebrate 5 years with a 1-month paid sabbatical to recharge.
- Connect with colleagues at annual company events and smaller team gatherings.
- Balance flexibility and in-person collaboration with our hybrid model, including at least 12 monthly in-office days.
