What You''ll Do

As the Enterprise Procurement and Payables (EPandP) Director, Global Process Owner – Source to Pay (S2P), you will lead BCG’s Source-to-Pay transformation through its final implementation phase and transition it into a high-performing, business-as-usual global operation. This dual-phase role blends delivery and operational excellence - requiring a strong transformation mindset now, and long-term leadership of a mature, scalable service model going forward.

In the immediate term, you will be responsible for finalizing the change agenda, completing the rollout of S2P capabilities across the remaining -50% of BCG’s global footprint. This includes working cross-functionally to deploy, align, and stabilize end-to-end processes for Source-to-Contract (S2C) and Purchase-to-Pay (P2P), while embedding effective risk, compliance, and governance practices.

Once rollout is complete, you will take full ownership of the global S2P technical solution and endto-end process, accountable for delivery, strategy, performance, user satisfaction, platform and process adoption (including Coupa), continuous improvement, and innovation. Your work will ensure that S2P becomes a fully embedded, high-value business capability - efficient, controlled, and ready to scale with BCG''s ongoing growth. Following the roll-out, this role may also evolve to take on a broader mandate leading additional technical solutioning initiatives and/or products for the Enterprise Procurement and Payables team.

You will initially lead and support two direct reports who own major parts of the solution:

The Global Process Owner – S2C, responsible for maturing S2C solutions in remaining markets, aligning controls, and expanding the use of Supplier Information Management (SIM), risk tools, and Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM).The Global Process Owner – P2P including Cards, responsible for P2P maturity, expanding buying channels and catalogues, advancing Coupa Pay, and scaling card programs globally.

In this role, you will serve as a member of the Procurement Leadership Team with shared responsibility for supporting the building and maintaining a high performing culture across EPandP and partnering across the leadership team to deliver on department level goals. You will also work closely with global, regional-, system-, and office level Finance and Operational Leadership stakeholders through the planning and implementation phases. The individual in this role will also be a key partner to the ES AI Center of Excellence and Enterprise Services Data team, helping to activate the AI agenda for EPandP - applying intelligent automation, insight generation, and predictive analytics to drive smarter, faster decision-making and more fully automated across the S2P

lifecycle.

This role sits at the intersection of process, technology, data, and change and is integral to both delivering transformation outcomes and ensuring long-term operational excellence for EPandP, Enterprise Services, and BCG.
