Requirements
• Experience scaling a procurement or logistics function in a fast-growing business • Exposure to AI/ML hardware procurement or GPU-specific supply chains • Familiarity with ERP or procurement management systems
Responsibilities
• Rather than a long checklist, here's what success in this role looks like: • Own and develop the procurement and logistics function — building the processes, procedures, and supplier relationships that underpin the business's ability to procure and deploy infrastructure at pace • Manage the full supplier lifecycle — selection, evaluation, approval, account management, performance monitoring, and price negotiations — with a particular focus on building strong, resilient relationships with key hardware suppliers • Drive the end-to-end purchase order process — from supporting PO requisitions and monitoring inventory and utilisation data through to generating supplier forecasts and maintaining accurate procurement records • Own logistics from shipment planning through to delivery — coordinating with freight forwarders, managing export/import compliance, resolving customs issues, and keeping inventory tracking current • Manage RMA processes with suppliers — resolving issues, claims, and credit notes efficiently and without unnecessary escalation • Continuously identify cost reduction opportunities and process improvements across procurement and logistics, and keep leadership informed of risks, challenges, and supply constraints before they become problems • We're more interested in how you think and work than in a perfect CV. You'll likely bring a combination of the following: • how you think and work • Essential • Proven experience in procurement, strategic sourcing, or supply chain management — ideally within GPU, cloud, data centre, or high-performance computing environments • Strong understanding of GPU infrastructure and the supply dynamics that make hardware procurement in this space genuinely complex • Excellent commercial acumen — cost modelling, contract negotiation, pricing management, and supplier performance • Experience managing end-to-end logistics including international shipping, freight coordination, and import/export compliance • High level of ownership and problem-solving capability, with a proactive mindset and the ability to operate without heavy process infrastructure around you • Strong stakeholder management skills — comfortable working across engineering, finance, and leadership teams
Benefits
• Competitive salary and annual discretionary bonus scheme • Employee wellbeing benefits • 25 days of holiday, plus public holidays • Flexible working arrangements (remote or hybrid, depending on role and location) • Real ownership and autonomy, with the trust to take initiative and experiment • The opportunity to make a visible, meaningful impact as we scale • Clear career progression and growth opportunities in a fast-growing company • A collaborative, international culture built on trust, transparency, and ownership • The chance to help shape NexGen Cloud's team, culture, and future alongside ambitious, mission-driven colleagues • MORE INFORMATION • Head over to our NexGen Cloud careers page to view current openings and follow us on LinkedIn and X to learn more about our journey, newest releases and hear exciting news in the neocloud space.
