** Job Description
** Join a high-impact team driving procurement transformation through
** hands-on automation and value engineering**. This role is focused on
** executing business solutions that reduce manual work, improve transparency, and challenge how we spend with suppliers**. You will
** own and deliver initiatives end-to-end**, from problem definition through implementation and value realization. Success in this role comes from the ability to
** combine practical technical skills with strong business judgment
** to drive measurable impact. This is
** not a pure technical, data engineering, or dashboarding role**. It is designed for someone who can
** use technology pragmatically to solve business problems and generate value**.
*
* What you’ll do:

**
* ** Lead and deliver automation initiatives across Procurement**, translating complex problems into scalable solutions from design through value realization.
* ** Design, build, and advance automation solutions
** using data and technology to reduce manual effort, improve decision‐making, and scale digital ways of working across Procurement.
* ** Establish and evolve a value engineering framework
** to improve cost transparency, understand spend drivers, and assess whether the business is receiving the value it pays for.
* ** Partner closely with business stakeholders, IT, and Category Management
** to systematically track supplier performance, surface value leakage or over payment, and drive timely commercial or operational interventions.
* ** Act as a technically savvy, self‐driven change agent**, managing stakeholders effectively, introducing new ideas, learning emerging technologies, and translating complexity into direct, measurable business impact.
** What you’ll bring:
** Manage and Execute Automation Applications
* Own and deliver two key procurement automation initiatives, driving
** end-to-end execution from problem to adoption
*** Eliminate manual work by building
** practical solutions (scripts, Power Apps, workflows)
** that improve efficiency and scalability
* Work directly with data (SQL) to
** replace Excel/manual processes with automated, repeatable logic
** Value Engineering & Should-Cost Framework
* Build and evolve a
** value engineering framework
** to improve cost transparency and supplier performance insight
* Develop
** should-cost perspectives
** to challenge supplier spend and identify inefficiencies
* Drive identification and resolution of
** value leakage and over payment**, ensuring measurable business impact
*
* Education and experience:

*** Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, Business Analytics, or a related fi eld (or equivalent practical experience).
* 5+ years of experience building data‐driven or automation solutions in a business environment (e.g., procurement, operations, fi nance, IT).
* Strong working knowledge of SQL and data handling, applied to solve practical business problems rather than build infrastructure
