Overview

This is a confidential, senior-level procurement leadership role for a large, complex, multi-site organization operating at national and international scale.

Role Orientation

  • Set clear direction and standards while empowering teams to execute effectively across regions
  • Balance enterprise consistency with the realities of field-based or distributed operating models
  • Lead through influence, data, and credibility rather than policy alone

  • Drive value creation across categories such as services, facilities, maintenance, technology, professional services, and other indirect spend common to large, distributed organizations
  • Align procurement priorities with broader enterprise objectives, financial targets, and operational requirements
  • Establish contracting frameworks that balance cost competitiveness, service continuity, risk management, and flexibility in dynamic market conditions
Supplier & Partner Management in Distributed Operations
  • Elevate supplier relationships from transactional to performance-based partnerships
  • Lead supplier strategies that support geographically dispersed, multi-site operations and field-adjacent environments
  • Define and oversee supplier governance models, including scorecards, escalation paths, and continuous improvement expectations
  • Lead complex supplier negotiations and issue resolution in high-impact or time-sensitive situations
  • Ensure supplier accountability, consistency of service, and value realization across a distributed footprint
  • Provide senior leadership and direction for digital procurement enablement, including procure-to-pay (P2P) platforms, compliance, and adoption
  • Partner with procurement operations and technology teams to advance automation, data transparency, and reporting
  • Ensure digital tools and processes support ease of use, scalability, and execution reliability across regions and operating units
Organizational Leadership & Team Development
  • Lead, develop, and mentor a senior procurement leadership team operating across regions and functions
  • Directly and indirectly manage leaders responsible for category strategy, supplier performance, and procurement operations
  • Set clear performance expectations, metrics, and development pathways for procurement talent
  • Build a culture that values ownership, accountability, collaboration, and sound judgment
  • Act as a visible leader and role model for enterprise-level decision making
Operating Model, Process & Transformation
  • Drive clarity around procurement operating model, including decision rights, governance, and ways of working
  • Lead continuous improvement efforts focused on efficiency, scalability, and execution reliability
  • Translate complex analysis into clear recommendations and actionable decisions, avoiding unnecessary over-engineering
Executive & Cross-Functional Partnership
  • Serve as a trusted thought partner to senior leaders across operations, finance, supply chain, and functional teams
  • Communicate effectively with executives, balancing data-driven insight with practical business context
  • Navigate competing priorities and stakeholder perspectives with maturity and sound judgment
