Job description

Macmillan Publishers is seeking a Senior Director, Procure-to-Pay (P2P) to lead and transform the end-to-end P2P function across the organization. This role has accountability for Corporate Procurement, Accounts Payable, T&E and Corporate Card Management, and Payment Processing.
The Senior Director will assess the current state, define a target operating model, and develop and execute a multi-year P2P transformation roadmap, including the evaluation and potential implementation of a unified P2P platform. The ideal candidate has done this before, thrives in environments where the path isn't yet paved, and brings both the strategic vision and the hands-on expertise to get it done.
What You'll Do:
Strategic Leadership & Transformation
  • Define and drive a multi-year P2P transformation strategy aligned with Macmillan's Finance and enterprise goals
  • Conduct a current-state assessment across all P2P functions and develop a roadmap for process standardization, automation, and technology modernization
  • Lead evaluation and potential implementation of a unified P2P platform (e.g., Coupa, SAP Ariba, Jaggaer, or equivalent) in close partnership with Technology leadership
  • Anticipate business needs and bring forward proactive insights, risks, and recommendations to senior leadership

Operational Excellence
  • Oversee the full P2P lifecycle: corporate sourcing and vendor management, purchase order processing, invoice management, T&E and corporate card programs, and payment execution
  • Establish clear policies, controls, and scalable processes that support growth and ensure compliance
  • Define and monitor KPIs across all P2P functions, measuring efficiency, accuracy, cycle time, and cost performance
  • Serve as the primary escalation point for P2P operational issues, vendor disputes, and policy exceptions

Leadership & Influence
  • Lead, develop, and empower a team of managers and individual contributors across all P2P functions
  • Build accountability and ownership at every level of the team
  • Influence stakeholders across Finance, IT, HR, Legal, and the broader enterprise to drive solutions that scale
  • Act as a thought partner to the SVP, Finance Operations and CFO on P2P strategy and spend management

Team Development
  • Invest in talent development and succession planning across the function
  • Define clear roles, responsibilities, and career pathways within P2P
  • Foster a culture of continuous improvement, accountability, and high performance

What You'll Bring:
  • 12+ years of progressive Finance Operations experience with deep expertise across Procurement, Accounts Payable, T&E, and/or Payment Processing
  • Demonstrated experience leading a P2P transformation, from current-state assessment through roadmap development and execution, including technology evaluation and implementation
  • Experience building and structuring a high-performing P2P function, ideally within a mid-to-large media, publishing, or similarly complex environment
  • Strong command of P2P technology platforms (e.g., Coupa, SAP Ariba, Jaggaer, Oracle, or comparable)
  • Proven ability to influence across IT, Legal, HR, and business stakeholders without direct authority
  • High degree of independence and self-direction; comfortable building structure where none exists
  • Strong executive presence and communication skills - equally effective presenting a transformation roadmap to the CFO and coaching a manager through a vendor dispute
  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or Business Administration required

This role will have an annual salary of $155,000 - $180,000.
This position is classified as remote but is tied to our New York, NY office located at 120 Broadway. Employment is subject to New York State tax withholding under applicable regulations.
