Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
Procurement operations is becoming a core scaling function in modern SaaS, especially for platform companies with global customer bases and a growing vendor footprint. This role stands out because it sits at the intersection of finance operations and tooling, with clear ownership of a source to pay system that touches security, legal, IT, and business teams. In an AI enabled enterprise SaaS context, procurement is increasingly tied to governance, spend visibility, and risk management, not just purchasing.
For a SaaS career path, the long term value is exposure to how high growth software companies standardise workflows across time zones while keeping decision making auditable. Building dashboards around spend, cycle times, and compliance develops an operator’s muscle for metrics driven execution, which translates well to other SaaS ops domains such as revenue operations, business operations, or finance systems. Hands on administration of tools like Zip, Ramp, and Navan also builds durable systems literacy that remains relevant as stacks evolve.
This role is best suited to a pragmatic builder who enjoys turning ambiguous needs into repeatable processes and documentation. It fits someone comfortable partnering with senior stakeholders and negotiating tradeoffs between speed, control, and user experience. It also aligns with professionals who prefer owning a cross functional operating cadence rather than specialising narrowly in sourcing alone.

Job Description
Why Harvey
At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate — not incrementally, but end-to-end. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come.
This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point.

The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched.
Our team is sharp, motivated, and deeply committed to the mission. We move fast, operate with intensity, and take real ownership of the problems we tackle — from early thinking to long-term outcomes. We stay close to our customers — from leadership to engineers — and work together to solve real problems with urgency and care. If you thrive in ambiguity, push for excellence, and want to help shape the future of work alongside others who raise the bar, we invite you to build with us.
At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.
Role Overview
We are hiring a Procurement Operations Manager based in Dublin to join the Finance team and contribute to Harvey’s global financial operations processes. This role is responsible for building and driving procurement operations, systems, and processes to optimize costs, simplify the buying experience, and drive value across the organization. You won’t just manage processes – you’ll build a scalable source-to-pay engine, leverage cutting-edge tools, and ensure our teams have what they need to buy well at speed.
What You'll Do
Procurement Systems & Infrastructure
Own and optimize Harvey’s integrated procurement platforms (Zip, Ramp, Navan), eliminating silos and improving the end-user buying experience.
Diagnose gaps and inefficiencies within the source-to-pay lifecycle; engineer high-impact solutions that ensure consistency, speed, and long-term scalability.
Architect and deploy the workflows required to support Harvey’s rapid growth, ensuring systems scale alongside an expanding global footprint.
Sourcing & Vendor Management
Lead the design and execution of sourcing processes that empower teams to move fast while maintaining rigorous standards for cost management and operational excellence.
Maintain the contract renewal calendar and lead vendor negotiations; turn external partnerships into strategic advantages that drive measurable savings.
Build and maintain vendor scorecards; track SLAs, manage escalations, and ensure high-quality vendor partnerships across the organization.
Process, Policy & Change Management
Develop procurement playbooks, policies, and training materials from scratch; own the full change management lifecycle including documentation and communication strategies.
Accelerate organizational efficiency by reducing cycle times and leading the seamless rollout of procurement policies and tools.
Partner with cross-functional leadership to align procurement systems and processes with Harvey’s growth trajectory.
Analytics & Reporting
Build and manage dashboards tracking spend, compliance, and cycle times that empower Finance leadership to make data-driven decisions with confidence.
Harness procurement analytics to provide a clear, real-time view of Harvey’s financial commitments and savings performance.
What You Have
5+ years of experience in procurement, sourcing, or finance operations.
Hands-on operator experience with modern procurement and spend tools — Zip, Ramp, Coupa, Navan, Airbase, or similar — including configuration, workflow design, and admin.
AI fluency – you actively use AI tools in your work.
Proven ability to build process and structure in ambiguous, fast-moving environments without over-engineering.
Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, with a track record of partnering effectively with Finance, Legal, Security, IT, and senior business stakeholders.
Comfort operating across time zones, including regular collaboration with a US-based Head of Procurement and global stakeholders.
