Stakeholder support. Serve as day-to-day procurement contact for stakeholders in assigned subcategories, providing guidance on process, supplier options, and requirement definition. Build understanding of stakeholder priorities and demand pipeline.

Supplier and contract administration. Maintain accurate contract, supplier, and pipeline records in procurement systems. Track renewals and expiries, support supplier onboarding, and assist with performance reporting and scorecard preparation for assigned suppliers.

Compliance and continuous improvement. Ensure sourcing activity follows procurement policy, approval thresholds, and documentation standards. Identify process improvements and contribute to playbooks, templates, and knowledge assets for the category team.

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
