Luxembourg Vodafone Temps plein

**Company**:
Our purpose at Vodafone is to connect for a better future. At Vodafone Group, we partner with our local markets to drive consistency and earn customer loyalty across 20 countries for over 600 million customers. We are restless and passionate about creating a better future for all. We are always open to new things, and curious to create solutions that our customers will love. We are constantly learning to innovate the way we operate, set our global standards and to deliver on our strategy. Our ambition is to improve 1 billion lives and half our environmental impact by 2025. It’s up to each of us to make this happen. Ready?
The Vodafone Procurement Company (VPC) in Luxembourg is part of Vodafone Group and drive our aspiration to connect for a better future. We purchase products and services from across the globe to help run our business at its very best. We support our people to deliver on our strategy and be a brand loved by our customers, communities, co-partners and colleagues. We give and take ownership to make the most of our many talents and we are always learning to grow ourselves and our business. We get it done, together. Aspiring to be a brand our customers love, we think big, take risks and are always curious to learn. Are you?

To maintain procurement scale benefits considering the group’s current rationalisation of its footprint the VPC is seeking to create strategic relationships with prospective partners.

**Role Purpose**:
The Media category is about buying all the traditional media space for Vodafone’s adverts across our footprint, including TV, radio, print, and out-of-home. The category is of strategic importance to Vodafone, with high exposure to Vodafone’s Group Executive Committee, as it ensures that Vodafone’s Brand teams get access to the right channels of communication to reach our target customers at the right price. Vodafone spends around €350 - €400 million per year on traditional Media and most of the spend is channeled through a global media agency that is selected via a VPC-led global media pitch process every 2.5 years (the final business case is presented and submitted for approval to Vodafone’s Group Executive Committee). Between every two pitch processes, the category requires a very focused ongoing performance and contract management of the Global Media Agency to ensure their contractual commitments are delivered and adjusted to the changing market conditions.

**Key Responsibilities**:
**Sourcing**
- Manage the global deployment and execution of the existing global sourcing strategy and the category plans to deliver the category-agreed target outcomes.
- Support the delivery and implementation of the sourcing strategy and new contractual commitments with a value of up to €1 billion.
- Support the development of the new global sourcing strategy and prepare for the next global media pitch.
- Contribute to the ongoing commercial management of the central Media agency contracts including monitoring of obligations, rights, critical dates, service credits, escalations, commercial disputes, regular business reviews, etc.

**Stakeholder Management, Supplier Management, Industry Knowhow**
- Establish and continuously develop a highly collaborative operating model with the Group and local Brand teams, and local SCM, with a focus on cross-functional teamwork.
- Develop long-term partnerships with Media agencies and Media auditors, focusing on overall value, best-in-class quality, and innovation.
- Maintain an excellent network internally and externally to continuously evolve the knowledge of industry trends, competitors, business opportunities, and threats. Continuously identify and promote best practices for innovation, operational excellence, improved customer experience, and savings.

**Innovation**
- Contribute to the development and evolution of category-specific contracting models and contract templates, while working in collaboration with Legal, Local SCM, and Brand teams.
- Contribute to the continuous improvement and innovation of category-specific commercial models, while working in close collaboration with the Media auditor, Brand teams, Local SCM, and Media agencies.
- Develop, implement, and continuously evolve know-how and approach to technology, processes, and tools required for end-to-end category management.
- Drive end-to-end sourcing projects including highly complex and holistic, pricing / commercial and legal negotiations.

**Data management**
- Contribute to the delivery of key category financial targets such as centralized spend %, savings, and working capital improvements.
- Maintain accurate global Media spend, vendor, and contract data, incl. contracts database, proffered vendor list, and category blueprints, generate and provide insight through in-depth data discovery to secure Vodafone’s competitive advantage in the marketplace.

**Core Competencies**:

- Proven track record of being part of and delivering large and complex
