IT Category Leader

We are a global investment holding group managing more than USD 1.5 billion in assets across three high-growth sectors — energy, infrastructure, and financial services — with operations spanning Jakarta, Singapore. As our portfolio expands, technology has become one of the sharpest levers we have for unlocking value, and right now that lever is underused: IT spend, platforms, and vendor relationships sit fragmented across business units, each negotiating and building on its own.

We're looking for an IT Category Leader to change that — someone who can step into a genuinely blank-canvas mandate, build the Group's first unified IT category strategy from the ground up, and turn scattered spend into a single source of negotiating power. This is a rare opportunity to shape how an entire multi-sector group buys, governs, and standardizes technology, with direct visibility to senior leadership and a mandate that touches every business unit in the portfolio.

Lead group-wide IT category strategy and consolidate IT spend across business units Align sourcing with digital transformation and standardize core IT platforms Strengthen supplier governance, negotiation leverage, and enterprise framework agreements Enhance spend transparency, rationalize vendors, and secure long-term commercial value across the Group Requirements 7–10+ years in IT procurement, technology sourcing, or category management.

Proven experience managing IT categories such as hardware, software, cloud, telecom, IT services, cybersecurity, and professional services. Strong track record in strategic sourcing, tender management, commercial negotiation, and supplier management. Experience managing large, complex IT spend across multiple BUs or enterprise environments.

Experience driving cost optimization, supplier consolidation, contract governance, and value creation. Experience working with senior IT and business stakeholders and managing strategic technology vendors.
