IT Category Leader

Techconnect.id · Jakarta, Indonesia · Full-time · Posted 2026-08-26

Workplace: on_site

Department: Star Capital - Procurement

Description

We are a global investment holding group managing more than USD 1.5 billion in assets across three high-growth sectors — energy, infrastructure, and financial services — with operations spanning Jakarta, Singapore. As our portfolio expands, technology has become one of the sharpest levers we have for unlocking value, and right now that lever is underused: IT spend, platforms, and vendor relationships sit fragmented across business units, each negotiating and building on its own.

We're looking for an IT Category Leader to change that — someone who can step into a genuinely blank-canvas mandate, build the Group's first unified IT category strategy from the ground up, and turn scattered spend into a single source of negotiating power. This is a rare opportunity to shape how an entire multi-sector group buys, governs, and standardizes technology, with direct visibility to senior leadership and a mandate that touches every business unit in the portfolio.
