As a Strategic Procurement Business Partner, you will help drive our goals by:
  • Partner with CleanAir and CAS site and regional leaders as the primary point of contact for end-to-end procurement support across the assigned geography.
  • Shape and prioritize local demand to improve spend efficiency, route requests to the right JM Procurement or GBS delivery teams, and ensure clear ownership across stakeholders.
  • Build and deliver local savings plans and strategic sourcing initiatives aligned to global category strategies and JM procurement policies.
  • Represent local requirements to global category teams, helping translate global strategies into locally effective solutions and steering spend to approved suppliers.
  • Lead supplier performance management for local suppliers, including issue resolution and escalation management in partnership with sites, GBS and global teams.
  • Champion process excellence by driving compliant use of Coupa and other procurement tools, and by implementing continuous improvement initiatives at site level.

  • Proven experience in strategic procurement, sourcing and supplier management, with strong stakeholder engagement and customer focus.
