Technical Solutions and Implementation Lead, Third Party Management & Procurement

Job description

The opportunity Own the systems that power how Wise onboards third parties, signs contracts, and runs key approvals and reports on them! Wise works with a wide range of partners, including third-party vendors and banking service providers, managing contracts and approvals across the board. This role improves the systems and workflows behind that lifecycle. You’ll turn processes into simple workflows, ship automation through fully hands-on platform configuration, and improve speed + reliability across the third-party lifecycle.

This is not a software engineering role. Instead, you’ll deliver outcomes through technical solution design, hands-on platform configuration (no-code platforms), integration/API delivery with partner teams, vibe-coding and disciplined releases.

What you’ll be doing Hands-on configuration & implementation

build and maintain processes in our non-code platforms (forms, templates, routing rules and logic, approvals, automations). Own complex changes and owner of the systems.

Technical solution design

translate business requirements into a technical build plan (workflows logic, data model, edge cases, permissions, audit needs) and make effective use of AI where possible.

Integrations & APIs

drive API-based integrations with partner teams such as finance, risk (data mapping, validation, failure modes, rollout). Troubleshoot cross-system issues with logs and structured debugging.

Release, reliability & governance

own testing/UAT, rollout and rollback plans, release notes, incident handling, and root-cause prevention.

System expert + enablement

be the go-to technical owner for your platforms - maintain runbooks/standards, train the team and key stakeholders on “how it works”, and raise the overall capability so we’re less reliant on external providers What success looks like Complex changes ship fast and safely with low regression rate and clear release standards (testing, rollout, rollback). Integrations are stable and owned (fewer repeat issues, clear failure handling, faster recovery when things break).

Platform health improves

cleaner configurations, clear standards/runbooks, faster troubleshooting and fewer “mystery” behaviours.

Reporting becomes reliable and usable

key lifecycle metrics are measurable (even if pragmatic/manual at first) and the team can explain what’s slow and why. KPIs move in the right direction because the systems work better: shorter cycle times (onboarding/contracting), fewer manual steps/rework, and clearer operational visibility for stakeholders.

Qualifications

What you will need Hands-on platform delivery (strong)

you’ve configured/administered enterprise tools and shipped workflow changes to production (rules, approvals, routing, templates, automations).

Integration mindset

you can lead confidently with API docs and integrations - define payload requirements, map fields, validate responses, understand auth basics (API keys/OAuth)

Systems thinking

you understand cross-tool dependencies and how a change in one system impacts downstream workflows, reporting, audit trails, and controls.

Release discipline

you can run safe releases end-to-end (testing approach, rollout plan, rollback plan, post-release monitoring).

Operational ownership

you can handle escalations calmly (triage → reproduce → fix/escalate → RCA → prevention) and keep standards/runbooks up to date. Nice to have Experience with CLM / procurement / third-party risk / service management platforms / finance systems Familiarity with webhooks, SSO, data sync patterns, integration monitoring Experience building “good enough” reporting from imperfect tools What we are not looking for Strategy-only roles with no shipping track record Pure project management roles without hands-on tooling/configuration delivery Candidates who avoid tools, ambiguity, or cross-functional work
