  • Ensure procurement is embedded early in project planning and execution stages.

  • Prepare cost analyses, performance dashboards, and ad-hoc reports.
  • Identify improvement opportunities based on data insights and communicate them proactively.
Team and process development 
  • Support colleagues across locations and provide backup when needed.
