Use spend analytics and AI-enabled insights to identify cost optimization and consolidation opportunities.
Improve supplier performance against negotiated SLAs and quality metrics.
Provide strategic reporting and forward-looking analysis on current and future spend.

Proven track record delivering price optimization, cost savings, and measurable value.
Experience partnering with suppliers, internal business stakeholders, and senior leadership.
