Our take: The real work here is running commercial deals end to end and aligning stakeholders around trade-offs that balance cost, risk and long-term value.

If you love finding the deal both sides can live with, and you get a quiet thrill from turning a messy set of stakeholder wants into a clean commercial outcome, this is your kind of work. You will run sourcing end to end with real autonomy, negotiate terms that deliver value you can measure, and grow into a partner the business genuinely leans on. Bring curiosity and sound judgement more than deep category expertise, and you will keep getting better at the long game.
