JOB DESCRIPTION

The Associate will support the GP Stakes Spend Management Team, with primary responsibility for coordinating, scaling, and institutionalizing an eSourcing program across the GP Stakes portfolio. The team focuses on generating tangible value for underlying GPs through group purchasing, eSourcing, and broader spend management initiatives.

This role offers the opportunity to help build and expand a formal, portfolio-wide eSourcing program, driving year-over-year adoption and measurable financial impact. The Associate will work closely with portfolio company stakeholders and the Blackstone Sourcing Center to embed eSourcing as a standard operating best practice for both existing and newly acquired GP Stakes investments.

The position requires strong relationship-building, program management, and change-management skills, with success driven through influence and partnership rather than direct authority.

Portfolio Company Enablement

• Support a select group of portfolio companies through deeper, hands-on engagement to demonstrate eSourcing capabilities and results
• Drive awareness and adoption through training sessions, best-practice sharing, and user communities
• Encourage portfolio companies to dedicate resources and capabilities to eSourcing initiatives

Tools, Analytics & Execution

• Leverage Blackstone’s Spend360 spend-visibility platform to improve data transparency and identify new sourcing opportunities
• Use spend analytics to support compliance with negotiated contracts and usage management tools
• Partner with the Blackstone Sourcing Center to execute eSourcing events on behalf of portfolio companies
• Contribute to the ongoing development of eSourcing processes, tools, and best practices

External Visibility

• Support Blackstone conferences and events where eSourcing program representation or thought leadership is required

QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor’s degree required; preference for Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, or Engineering
• 5+ years of experience in eSourcing or strategic sourcing roles within large, complex, global organizations
• Demonstrated expertise across end-to-end sourcing processes, eSourcing tools, and value delivery
• Proven track record of generating quantifiable sourcing impact across direct, indirect, and capital spend categories
• Strong analytical, project management, and stakeholder-influencing skills, and can operate as a change agent
• Advanced Excel proficiency required; experience with Ariba and spend-visibility platforms preferred
• Prior experience in private equity or multi-portfolio environments is a plus
• Lean / Six Sigma training and procurement transformation experience preferred
• Advanced Excel and PowerPoint proficiency expected
