• Identify savings, supplier consolidation, and negotiation opportunities and proactively surface them to sourcing managers.
• Partner with global stakeholders and sourcing leads to define focus areas and create high-quality analytical outputs that support strategic decision-making.
• Build and maintain dashboards, data models, and reporting tools to support procurement visibility and performance tracking.
• Drive or support global process improvement initiatives, including compliance reporting, automation, policy development, and sourcing platform implementation.
• Establish and refine processes and documentation to ensure global consistency and scalable operations.
• Assist with or lead sourcing-related projects and initiatives aligned with category strategies and procurement transformation goals.
  
  

Qualifications

Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Supply Chain, Analytics, or related field.

• Experience with ERP/P2P systems (e.g., SAP, NetSuite, Oracle, Coupa) and BI/reporting tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, Looker).
• Excellent cross-functional communication and interpersonal skills, with demonstrated experience collaborating across geographies.
• Proven ability to independently manage workload, prioritize tasks, and deliver on tight timelines.
  
  

Preferred

• Project management skills and familiarity with methodologies such as Six Sigma, PMI, Agile, or similar.
• Experience with automation or AI tools (e.g., RPA, Alteryx) to streamline reporting or analysis.
• Prior involvement in benchmarking, supplier performance evaluation, or procurement transformation initiatives.
• Familiarity with sourcing policy formation, contract compliance, or procurement governance.
