• Create, upload, maintain, and update hosted and punch‑out e‑catalogs, ensuring accurate pricing, availability, and supplier information.
• Analyze tail spend and off‑contract purchasing to identify opportunities to transition recurring purchases into structured catalog channels.
• Execute spot buys and tactical sourcing activities for non‑catalog purchases, including obtaining quotes, negotiating short‑term commercial terms, and selecting compliant suppliers.
• Ensure tactical purchasing activities comply with established spending thresholds, procurement policies, and governance requirements.
• Manage and resolve Tier 1 and Tier 2 P2P helpdesk queries from internal users and suppliers relating to orders, payments, system access, and procurement policies.
