  • Leverage automation tools including Microsoft Power Automate, Power Apps, and Co-Pilot / Gen AI to reduce manual effort and improve P2P throughput and controls.

  • Develop and present findings, recommendations, and roadmaps to client stakeholders including senior leadership and C-suite executives.

  • Mentor and coach Senior Consultants and Consultants, overseeing their development and the quality of their deliverables.

  • Contribute to business development by supporting proposal preparation, solution design, and client presentations.

What Will Help You Be Successful:
  • You are energized by the intersection of procurement process and technology, and thrive translating complex P2P requirements into practical platform configurations and workflow solutions.

  • You are passionate about data - spend analysis, process analytics, and surfacing insights that drive measurable cost and cycle-time improvements.

  • You excel at building trusted client relationships and communicating technical concepts clearly to both operational and executive audiences.

  • You take ownership of engagement quality and are motivated to develop junior team members into strong consultants.

  • You are curious about emerging tools like Gen AI, process mining, and intelligent automation and actively bring new ideas to client engagements.

  • You thrive in a fast-paced consulting environment and can manage multiple workstreams and client priorities simultaneously.

  • Conducting spend analysis and procurement analytics, including process mining, cycle time analysis, and KPI benchmarking to identify P2P bottlenecks and savings opportunities.

  • Designing and documenting end-to-end P2P business processes, including current-state assessments, future-state blueprints, and gap analyses.

  • Developing and deploying automation solutions using Microsoft Power Automate, Power Apps, or Co-Pilot to streamline P2P workflows and approvals.

  • Building Power BI dashboards and reporting models to provide clients with real-time procurement performance visibility.

  • Supporting or leading system integration design and testing between P2P platforms and ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Workday).

  • Applying Lean, Six Sigma, or Agile methodologies to procurement process improvement and technology deployment projects.

  • Ability to evaluate, synthesize, and interpret complex procurement data to develop actionable recommendations for senior stakeholders.

  • Strong project management skills including workstream planning, status reporting, issue and risk tracking, and stakeholder coordination.

  • Experience supporting business development activities: scoping engagements, developing proposals, and presenting solutions to prospective clients.

  • Leadership and direct supervisory experience including mentoring, performance feedback, and cross-functional team coordination.

Your Educational and Professional Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in a relevant discipline (e.g., Supply Chain Management, Operations, Industrial Engineering, MIS, Computer Science, or related field).
