About us We are a global FinTech & RegTech success story scaling rapidly across North America, Europe, and Asia. With industry-leading products, deep client trust, and strong commercial momentum, Fenergo is shaping the future of digital client lifecycle management and regulatory transformation. As we continue to scale, the sophistication of our vendor ecosystem, technology stack, and spend profile has increased substantially. Our Strategic Procurement & Value Management (SP&VM) function is newly established and growing — a next-generation procurement capability that is strategic, insight-led, commercially sharp, and tightly aligned to our legal, financial, risk, and operational governance model. Built with CFO backing and a clear operating model, SP&VM's mandate is not simply to reduce cost — it is to maximise the return on external spend, drive commercial rigour, build vendor partnerships, support scalable growth, and help drive business decisions. The Opportunity We are looking for a commercially sharp Procurement Category Manager to join the SP&VM team in Dublin. This is a pivotal hire: someone who can deliver tangible cost and value outcomes today, while helping to build the systems, disciplines, and relationships that will define a world-class procurement function tomorrow. The world's leading CPOs are unanimous: procurement mandate has shifted from cost centre to strategic enabler. At Fenergo, we are building a function that reflects exactly that — and this role is central to it. You will work across the full cycle of category management, from spend analysis and sourcing strategy through commercial negotiations and contract governance, with direct exposure to Finance, Legal, and senior leadership. You will bring both the commercial discipline to deliver near-term savings and the curiosity and judgement to help shape what comes next.
