• Manage categories across multiple business lines, contributing to a robust and evolving supplier management framework
• Drive cross-functional collaboration by guiding stakeholder teams through sourcing strategies while fostering innovation with supplier partners
• Build and maintain strong supplier relationships, including leading enterprise-level “Top-to-Top” engagements with key vendors

• Proactively manage contract pipelines and renewal strategies, partnering with business lines to anticipate needs, consolidate spend, reduce supplier fragmentation, and identify opportunities to streamline supplier contracts
• Use spend analytics, market benchmarking, supplier scorecards, and performance insights to inform category planning, sourcing recommendations, and data-led supplier decisions

• Act as a key escalation point for supplier-related issues with enterprise-wide impact
• Influence enterprise spend and cost optimization efforts across the organization
• Ensure consistency and discipline in procurement practices across business groups
• Champion a client-focused culture, leveraging broader Bank relationships, systems, and knowledge
• Operate within the Bank’s risk framework, ensuring all activities align with operational risk, regulatory compliance, AML/ATF, and conduct standards
• Lead and develop high-performing teams by fostering an inclusive environment, supporting career development, and communicating a clear vision and strategy
