Procurement Manager

Vertice was launched in 2022 to transform how companies manage their technology spend. Our agentic workflows, AI insights and expert buyers empower companies to buy smarter and scale faster, with Finance and Procurement leaders in over 30 countries worldwide trusting Vertice to manage their software purchases. In the software category alone, we have managed over $10bn in spend and have a track record of delivering 20% savings and halving procurement cycles.

Headquartered in London with offices across the world including New York, Brno, Sydney, Johannesburg and Singapore, we're shaping the future of procurement on a global scale.

And we're just getting started. Founded by serial entrepreneurs Roy Tuvey and Eldar Tuvey, who have a track record of building two category-defining technology companies to exit, Vertice has seen a remarkable 13X revenue growth in two years. This momentum has led to us being named as 2025's fastest-growing startup in the UK by the FT's Sifted, and as fourth in Europe. Following our Series C, we have secured over $100 million in funding from leading investors including Bessemer Venture Partners, 83 North and Lakestar, and are expanding our reach across our team.
