  • Represent procurement in cross-functional forums, including Finance, Legal, IT, and business unit leadership.
  • Build a procurement M&A integration playbook and lead procurement workstreams - vendor assessment, contract rationalization, and policy harmonization - to capture synergies following acquisitions.

Cost Savings and Value Delivery

  • Deliver measurable, recurring cost savings through strategic sourcing, vendor consolidation, and demand management, supported by spend analytics that track savings against targets.

Process Improvement and Operational Excellence

  • Diagnose and resolve procurement friction, prioritizing vendor onboarding and purchase requisition (PR) approval workflows.
  • Maintain the Delegation of Authority (DOA) framework to keep approvals efficient while preserving financial and risk controls.
  • Finalize and publish a comprehensive procurement policy that standardizes practices and serves as the reference for all employees.
  • Build a procurement knowledge base structured for AI-assisted guidance and self-service.
  • Develop deep functional knowledge of JAGGAER’s procurement platform and pursue self-service configuration improvements to support process goals, working with IT as needed.

Training and User Enablement

  • Design and deliver a procurement training program - covering policy, system navigation, and approval workflows - with materials that are current, accessible, and easy to maintain.
  • Drive system adoption across teams by making procurement tools and processes intuitive and low-friction.

Vendor and Supplier Management

  • Own strategic supplier relationships across key spend categories, conducting regular business reviews and performance assessments.
  • Monitor supplier risk, compliance, and performance, applying a consistent approach to flag and address issues.
