You'll also lead efforts to standardize sourcing templates and processes, driving continuous improvement and operational efficiency.

  • Ensure accurate data capture and proper project closure in alignment with team standards
  • Manage the CAF / DocuSign routing process in accordance with applicable policies
  • Collaborate with the Sourcing Operations Sr. Manager and category managers to assess project requirements and determine the appropriate level of sourcing support and prioritization before assigning projects to team members

Basic Qualifications :

  • 1.5 years of experience in procurement, business, sales, finance or related fields
  • Intermediate proficiency in Microsoft Office applications, especially Excel (pivot tables) and Word
  • Ability to work effectively under tight deadlines and adapt to changing priorities
  • Basic understanding of strategic sourcing
  • Strong ability to manage and prioritize work while receiving direction from multiple stakeholders
  • Preferred Qualifications :

  • Experience using eSourcing platforms such as SAP Ariba
  • Ability to influence peers and stakeholders without formal authority
  • Familiarity with the 7-step sourcing process and category management
  • Strong organizational, collaboration and communication skills (both verbal and written)
  • What's In It For You :

    We're committed to helping people thrive at work and at home. We offer generous benefits that address your total well-being and provide support as you need it, especially key moments in your life. Our benefits include :

  • Competitive pay
  • Generous employee discount
  • Physical well-being support
  • About Us :
