We're changing that. One product at a time.\nLunar is a Nordic challenger bank building the future of financial life with AI at the core. Our engineers, designers, and product people work on problems that actually matter. Making money simpler, smarter, and more rewarding for over a million registered users across the Nordics.\nFully licensed and founded in 2015, with offices in Copenhagen, Aarhus and Stockholm.\nWe move fast, we build with purpose, and we're just getting started.\nAs our new Procurement Manager you'll join our Finance organization reporting to our Legal Directo r in Aarhus. You'll build Lunar's procurement function from the ground up and run it: setting the policy and framework for how we buy, leading the procurements and renegotiations that matter, and making sure we get value for what we spend, across IT, services, consultants, goods and leases.\nYou won't work alone. Procurement sits in Legal, and works daily with experts on GDPR, Finance and Company IT.\nEvery supplier follow a shared process: you own sourcing, price and negotiation, Third Party Risk Management owns the risk view and sits alongside you rather than inside the deal, Legal shapes the contract, and GDPR checks personal data and other requirements before anything is signed. Most of what Lunar buys is technology, so DORA's requirements are built into every ICT purchase. Finance owns the purchase order flow and cost control with you, and Company IT partners you on software licences.\nWhat will you do?\nBuild the function. Set up the procurement policy, procedures and approval thresholds for all spend, from software and hardware to consultants, marketing, travel and leases, and make sure the business knows them and follows them.\n\nRun procurements and negotiations. Lead tenders, vendor selection and negotiations with business owners, from business case to signed contract, together with Legal and Third Party Risk Management.\n\nStop paying for what we do not use. Work with Company IT on licence management and with business owners on renewals, so no contract renews without a decision and we cut what we use too little.\n\nRun one process with our control functions. Set up the handover with Third Party Risk Management, the DPO and Legal, so each supplier gets a clear risk classification, a GDPR check and contract requirements before we sign, without slowing the business down.\n\nMake cost control data based. Together with Finance, set up the purchase order flow and one overview of contracts and spend, so we know what we have committed, with whom and why, and whether business cases deliver what they promised.\n\nDevelop Vendor Management. Define our approach to vendor management (what happens after signature), and build recommendations that make sure we get what we pay for and where we have clear vendor termination processes.\n\nMove from control to strategy. Over time, build category management and strategic sourcing for our main spend areas, consolidate vendors and negotiate with a multi year view.\n\nWhat are we looking for in you?\n5+ years of experience in procurement, strategic sourcing or category management, with a large share of it on IT, software and technology spend.\n\nExperience from the financial sector, energy, defence or another regulated industry, where procurement has to stand up to audit and regulatory scrutiny.\n\nNegotiation results you can point to: contracts renegotiated, vendors consolidated, savings delivered.\n\nYou have built or matured a procurement process before, including policy, thresholds, approval flows and purchase orders, and you know how to make the business actually use it.\n\nComfortable working with Legal, Data Protection and Finance on the same supplier. You know that a good deal can still fail a GDPR or DORA check, and you plan for it.\n\nStrong commercial and contractual understanding. You read a contract and see what it means for price, term, renewal and exit. A background in business, law or supply chain, for example cand.merc. or cand.merc.jur., or equivalent practical experience.\n\nA clear writer who is comfortable challenging vendors, business owners and senior stakeholders. Fluent in English.\n\nBonus if you bring:\nWorking knowledge of DORA or the EBA outsourcing guidelines.\n\nExperience with software asset or licence management.\n\nExperience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central or a similar ERP, or with procurement and spend management tools.\n\nA year from now, Lunar has one procurement process the business knows and uses, a full overview of our contracts and spend, and fewer licences we pay for but do not use.\nWhat you get\n4 days in the office. We're a team that builds together, thinks together, and moves together. Showing up is part of how we work.\n\nState of the art equipment. The newest computer, monitor, mouse, and keyboard. We want you to do your best work without anything slowing you down.\n\nPension, health insurance, and enhanced parental leave. From your financial future to your family moments. We've got you covered.\n\nAre you ready to join the journey? Apply now and let's find out more!\nWhile you hold on tight for us to get back to you, curious to see what we're up to? Follow us on LinkedIn and Instagram.\nDepending on the regulations in the country where you will be employed, we will ask to see or obtain information about your criminal record.\nPlease note that our employment is conditional upon you not being registered in RKI (Ribers Kredit Information).\nWe welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds. If you need any adjustments during the recruitment process, please let us know.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5637,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":["Health insurance","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Supply Chain","Digital Banks & Neobanks"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-09T13:35:42Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":22,"reasons":["conf:2","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-09T16:16:51Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/lunar-procurement-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/lunar-procurement-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-09T16:16:51Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":23553,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-10T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":55301},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=55301"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Flunar-procurement-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Flunar-procurement-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Flunar-procurement-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/lunar-procurement-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Flunar-procurement-manager"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3964916}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"lunar.app","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3964916},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
