Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMartin Böhmer is a strategic purchaser and IT sourcing professional with nearly two decades of supply-chain and vendor-management experience and nine years focused on technology sourcing roles. Based in Zurich, he combines an MBA in Logistics, Materials and Supply Chain Management from ETH Zürich with a background in business administration and computer science to bridge procurement strategy and IT delivery. At Allianz Technology he leads software sourcing initiatives that balance commercial outcomes with technical and security requirements, drawing on prior sourcing and supplier-performance roles at Cembra, GE Capital and Zurich Insurance. Unusually for a sourcing lead, he contributes hands-on to open-source identity software—making back-end security and password-handling fixes to the widely used Apereo CAS project—demonstrating practical engineering aptitude alongside negotiation skills. He excels at turning complex contractual and technical constraints into auditable, operational supplier arrangements that reduce risk and accelerate projects. Colleagues rely on him to translate between procurement, security engineers and development teams to get pragmatic, secure solutions adopted.
