Indirect Procurement Specialist

As an Indirect Procurement Specialist, you’ll play a key role in keeping our operations running smoothly by managing the day-to-day procurement activities across a range of employee-related categories — including fleet, mobile, bikes, and other services. You’ll be the central contact point for both suppliers and internal stakeholders, ensuring seamless execution of the procure-to-pay (P2P) process, from purchase orders to invoice resolution.

This is a role for someone who enjoys bringing structure and efficiency to processes, solving problems proactively, and building strong working relationships. You’ll not only handle operational procurement execution but also support reporting, data analysis, and continuous improvements — all while making sure our procurement activities comply with policies, standards, and sustainability goals.
