- Experience supporting outsourced or managed service vendors at scale, where scope and volume move month to month and the contracts, purchase orders, and invoices have to keep up with each other.

- A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience

Eligibility
Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.
How to apply
- This portfolio behaves differently from the rest of the company in that it purchases goods and services from highly-specialized vendors and new programs regularly appear with real purchasing needs before any process exists for them.
- You ensure every purchase in the portfolio is coded, dated, received, and accrued correctly, so research spend is right in the books every month.
- Review every purchase request in your portfolio for the things that matter downstream: the right vendor record and contracting entity, complete commercial documents, correct spend categorization and service dates, and the approvals the purchase actually needs.
- Act as the dedicated operations partner for our research services vendor portfolio, where engagements are structured as master agreements with frequent work orders and scope changes, and where speed and documentation discipline both matter.
- Serve as the first line reviewer for month end accruals on your portfolio, gathering estimates from vendors and budget owners for variable spend and confirming or correcting proposed amounts so Accounting can close on time.
- Support audit and reporting requests that touch your portfolio, including commitment schedules and control evidence, with data you can stand behind.
- Apply purchasing policy consistently and explain the why, including approval thresholds, signature authority, and when an exception is and is not available.
- Continuous improvement Maintain the playbooks, intake guidance, and standard operating procedures for your portfolio so the path is repeatable and does not live in one person's head.
- Minimum qualifications Proven track record of owning a high-volume purchasing portfolio end-to-end in procure-to-pay and intake platform.
- Prior ownership of month end accrual review or open PO reconciliation for a large, variable spend portfolio Experience designing tiered intake or approval frameworks that sped up low risk purchases without weakening controls.
- We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification.
