Use existing skills, build new ones - proactively driving efficiency with an enthusiasm to get stuck in. You'll be a successful Procurement Enablement Lead here at OVO if you Have the ability to 'translate' data: You don't just build reports; you extract insights and see the "so what?" factor. You can present complex spend analysis in a way that helps bring about a quick, confident decision. Are curious: You're the type of person who asks "why?" when you see a data outlier. You enjoy investigating the root cause of process friction and finding a permanent fix. Have a 'user-first' mindset: You have experience designing processes (like Requisition-to-Receipt) with the end-user in mind. You understand that a process only works if people actually want to use it! Are a chameleon-like communicator. You can dive into the weeds with a functional specialist to fix a PO error, then pivot to a high-level strategic discussion with a Department Head without missing a beat.
