Senior IT Procurement Analyst

📍 Chennai 🏷️ Software Development 💰 ₹70,000 / month

About the Role

Guindy in Chennai has a Senior IT Procurement Analyst opening, part time, on site, with a team managing technology vendor relationships and purchasing decisions. Seven and a half years of experience is the expectation, and the part-time structure here comes with real, senior-level negotiation responsibility.

A Day in This Job

The work covers implementing new procurement processes based on project requirements, debugging and resolving vendor-related issues, documenting agreements for future reference, and participating in vendor selection reviews. Procurement decisions carry real financial weight, and a senior analyst here needs genuine negotiation skill, not just process knowledge.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Manage procurement processes for technology purchases
  • Negotiate with vendors on pricing and contract terms
  • Document procurement decisions and agreements clearly
  • Support vendor performance reviews

Qualifications

A bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field is expected, along with practical, hands-on project experience and strong proficiency in the relevant tools and frameworks for this role.

Skills That Matter

  • Procurement processes
  • Vendor management
  • Documentation

Good to Have

Experience negotiating a genuinely difficult vendor contract renewal, familiarity with technology licensing models specifically, and any background where a procurement decision balanced cost against real risk in a way that held up over time.

Why This Role

Guindy is one of Chennai's established tech corridors, and this analyst's decisions affect the organization's technology spending directly, giving the role real, measurable weight despite the part-time structure. Naukri Mitra has listed a few roles from this employer, and the part-time arrangement specifically has attracted senior candidates balancing this role with other consulting work, with the team clear that the scheduled hours require genuine focus given the stakes involved in vendor negotiations.

The Interview Process

Interviews include a scenario round on negotiating a hypothetical vendor contract and a discussion of a past procurement decision. Candidates who balance cost against risk thoughtfully tend to interview well.

Benefits

  • Pro-rated paid leave
  • Flexible in-office scheduling
  • Performance-based incentives
  • On-site cafeteria facilities and cab or commute support
