Procurement Program Manager

Within Procurement, the Center of Excellence (COE) team is responsible for designing and scaling the processes, systems, governance, and operating models that enable Procurement to grow effectively alongside the business.

The COE serves as the connective tissue across Procurement, Finance, Legal, Risk, and Enterprise Platform Technology (EPT), translating business needs into durable, scalable solutions that improve efficiency, visibility, compliance, and user experience. The team leads strategic transformation initiatives across the procurement ecosystem, driving process optimization, system enhancements, automation, analytics, and operational excellence.

This role partners closely with Procurement stakeholders and cross‑functional teams to simplify how work gets requested, routed, approved, and managed across the spend lifecycle. By combining program leadership, process design, and change enablement, we help Procurement scale while maintaining strong controls and delivering an exceptional experience for employees and business partners.

As a Procurement Program Manager, you will lead complex, cross‑functional initiatives that span Strategic Sourcing, Procure‑to‑Pay (P2P), Extended Workforce, Travel & Expense, Corporate Card, Risk, Legal, Finance, and Technology teams. You will drive project and program execution, contribute to solution design, requirements development, process optimization, testing, rollout planning, and stakeholder alignment.

This is a highly collaborative role for someone who thrives in fast‑moving environments, can bring structure to ambiguity, and is equally comfortable facilitating executive discussions, building project plans, and rolling up their sleeves to help move initiatives forward.

The position is based in San Francisco, CA with a hybrid work model of three days in the office per week. Relocation assistance is offered to new employees.
