YOUR IMPACT

You will serve as the primary business partner for supplier social responsibility insights within McKinsey's procurement and third-party engagement function.

In partnership with Business Insights, you will help develop dashboards, scorecards, and executive reporting to track sustainability KPIs and inform procurement decisions. Leveraging supplier ratings, predictive analytics, and data visualization, the role will identify emerging risks and opportunities to improve supplier performance. You will also support the adoption of AI-powered analytics, reporting automation, and digital procurement technologies to strengthen supplier risk monitoring and sustainability reporting.
