Description

We’re seeking a hands-on Procure-to-Pay (P2P) / Procurement Operations Specialist to provide short-term coverage for a team member on leave. This role is heavily focused on day-to-day execution inside a purchasing / procurement platform (Coupa preferred) and supporting internal stakeholders through the full P2P lifecycle—from requisitions to purchase orders, receiving, and invoice confirmation. This is an execution-focused role for someone who enjoys keeping processes moving, troubleshooting issues, and ensuring purchasing data is accurate and compliant. What You’ll Do

  • Support internal teams and suppliers with the end-to-end P2P workflow (requisitions POs change orders receiving invoice confirmation).
  • Provide guidance to business users on best practices and how to submit requests correctly (departments / accounts, documentation, approvals, etc.).
  • Monitor day-to-day purchasing activity and follow up on items that are stalled or missing information (, missing receipts, approvals, PO issues).
  • Troubleshoot common platform / process issues and escalate more complex items through defined channels (Slack and ticketing as needed).
  • Assist with supplier onboarding and verification of supplier / business details (as needed).
  • Help maintain simple SOPs / instructions and support adoption and compliance across teams.
  • Support basic reporting and ad-hoc requests (Excel + system reporting) to track compliance and process health. Why This Role
  • Short-term, clearly scoped assignment with a strong internal support structure.
  • Great fit for someone between roles or looking for a focused sprint.
  • Hands-on work that makes an immediate operational impact.
