What You’ll Do

Own the Category Strategy (Create Our Future)

• Build and execute a 1-to-3-year Hardware and Digital Workplace category strategy that keeps McKesson ahead of the market, not chasing it
• Scan the landscape relentlessly: key players, disruptors, emerging pricing models, and where the technology is heading before your stakeholders even know to ask
• Research industry trends and translate market intelligence into annual Category Strategy plans that examine supplier offerings, current and future needs, and align with IT leadership
• Work with internal stakeholders on current and future IT objectives, sparking big-picture thinking and connecting sourcing to enterprise outcomes

Negotiate Deals That Move the Needle (Make Bold Moves)

• Lead complex, high-value negotiations for hardware, software, and services — often bundled into holistic solutions that don’t fit neatly into any one category
• Manage major suppliers, resellers, and systems integrators with the confidence of someone who knows the market cold
• Create RFIs, RFPs, and sourcing strategies that generate real leverage, not just process theater
• Generate savings through contract negotiations, demand management, supplier consolidation, technology transformation, and innovation
• Use data and technology to drive clarity in uncertainty — you don’t wait for perfect information to take the next step

Move Fast and Bring People With You (Move at the Pace of Possibility)

• Convert business needs into actionable sourcing events quickly, without sacrificing quality or leaving stakeholders behind
• Prioritize ruthlessly across multiple concurrent IT sourcing projects — you know what matters most and protect that time
• Remove friction. If a process is slowing things down unnecessarily, you fix it
• Provide regular, crisp project status updates so stakeholders are never surprised and always informed
• Champion the adoption of AI tools and agents, automation, and emerging technologies to enhance productivity, decision-making, and business outcomes.

Deliver Results That Last (Deliver Results That Matter)

• Deliver year-over-year financial improvements through rate reductions, asset and demand management, process optimization, and supplier innovation
• Ensure compliance with company policies, procedures, and regulatory requirements at all times
• Develop, maintain, and enforce Service Level Agreements (SLAs) with key suppliers
• Serve as the escalation point for commercial and contractual supplier issues
• Conduct yourself and the category with the highest ethical standards — decisions are always objective and fact-based

Be the Partner Your Stakeholders Didn’t Know They Needed (Lead with Purpose and Humility)

• Build trusted relationships with Business Units, IT leaders, Legal, Finance, Compliance, Risk, and Insurance — the people whose support makes great sourcing possible
• Contribute to a Supplier Relationship Management program that turns transactional vendors into strategic partners
• Work across shared services groups on contract development, including Legal, Privacy, Risk Management, and Information Security
• Seek varied perspectives and model the kind of partnership that makes stakeholders want to bring you in early

Raise the Bar Around You (Build Teams of Tomorrow)

• Share what you know — the best sourcing professionals make the people around them sharper
• Contribute to a culture of continuous learning by sharing market insights, emerging trends, and best practices across the team
• Mentor and support colleagues across the Sourcing & Procurement function, helping build future-ready skills
