• Drive process improvement and strengthen compliance controls

Ideal Candidate Profile

• 3 to 7 years in procurement operations, P2P, or buying support roles
• A process-first mindset with strong attention to detail
• Hands-on with ERP or P2P systems and operational reporting
• Clear written and spoken English and a reliable remote-work setup

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in pharma, life sciences, or a regulated environment
• Familiarity with process-improvement methods (Lean or Six Sigma)
• Exposure to SAP Ariba, Coupa, or similar platforms

What We Offer

• An operations-leadership seat at a global pharma company's India hub
