Are you ready to take your career to the next level?

As a Senior Analyst Finance Procurement, you will play a pivotal role in supporting end‑to‑end procurement finance activities by analysing, modelling, and reporting spend, savings, and key cost drivers. In this role, you will partner closely with procurement and finance stakeholders to drive cost‑efficiency, optimize working capital, and strengthen procurement financial governance.

Partner closely with Procurement and Finance teams to validate savings and ensure accurate, transparent financial governance.
Maintain and enhance Anaplan data and structures, including spend history uploads, FX updates, taxonomy alignment, and MOH adjustments.
Manage supplier rebate processes end‑to‑end, from accrual proposal preparation and posting validation to tracking and payment release.
Support budgeting and forecasting cycles while delivering ad‑hoc financial analyses to inform decisions on procurement spend, supplier performance, contract compliance, and cost‑optimization opportunities.

We offer:

The opportunity to work for a company where sustainability is much more than a claim and is core to our strategy and purpose.
A flexible work environment that empowers people to take accountability for their work and own the outcome.
An eagerness to be one team and learn from each other to bring progress to life and create a better future.
Barrier-free communities within our organization where every employee is equally valued and respected regardless of their background, beliefs, or identity.
A culture that prioritizes safety and well-being, both physically and mentally.
A space to grow by encouraging and supporting curiosity and an open mindset.

You bring:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Business Economics, or a related field.
7+ years of experience in procurement finance, cost management, sourcing analytics, or similar and strong financial acumen in modelling, variance analysis, budgeting, and forecasting.
Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills, with the ability to interpret complex data, identify trends, and translate insights into actionable recommendations.
Advanced proficiency in Excel (pivot tables, modelling), SAP, Anaplan, and PowerPoint; familiarity with BI / Power BI is an advantage.
Solid understanding of the procurement lifecycle, including sourcing, supplier management, contract terms, and P2P processes, combined with a self‑starter mindset and strong prioritization skills.
High level of accountability, integrity, and compliance, with strong communication skills and the ability to build effective partnerships across procurement, finance, and operations.
