Own the intake-to-PO operating model, including request validation, routing, PO creation, change management, and supplier master data.
Ensure every request and PO is complete, policy-aligned, and audit-ready, with clean metadata that supports invoice matching and reporting.
Increase first-pass invoice match rates by improving upstream data quality and exception logic.
Reduce P2P cycle time through automation, self-service, and disciplined queue management.
Codify approval rules, exception handling, and segregation of duties directly into Zip, Oracle, and connected systems.
Expand and refine AI-assisted triage, validation, and routing so more volume moves through the system with less manual touchpoints.
Build and maintain dashboards and operational metrics to track intake health, cycle time, exception rates, and control performance.
Partner with Legal, Security, TPRM, and Finance Systems to ensure controls and policies are reflected in how work actually flows.
Serve as the escalation point when operational breakdowns occur — and lead the resolution through to a clean outcome.

Requirements

10+ years of experience running procurement, P2P, or intake-driven operations in fast-scaling environments.
A strong understanding of how upstream intake and metadata quality drive downstream invoice accuracy, audit readiness, and financial clarity.
A passion for transforming messy, manual processes into structured, scalable, automated systems.
Leveraged AI/automation to improve quality, speed, and scale.
Used data and metrics to spot risk, bottlenecks, and opportunities to simplify.
A strong grasp of controls, segregation of duties, and compliance requirements across Procurement, Legal, and Finance.
Comfort being a true player-coach — designing the operating model while also stepping into the queue to unblock a PO, fix a supplier record, or resolve a high-impact exception when needed.
Strong communication skills and the ability to partner cross-functionally to design workflows that enable speed while protecting the business.
Experience with tools such as Zip, Oracle, Jira, Navan, or similar platforms.
