About the job

We are looking for a Sourcing & Procurement Solution Design professional to join the Digital Transformation Services (DTS)

team in Bangalore.

The role will focus on designing differentiated, digitally enabled S&P solutions for global clients, supporting RFPs and

proactive pursuits, and developing transformation roadmaps that combine deep procurement domain expertise with AI,

analytics, automation, workflow and procurement technology.

The ideal candidate should be able to understand a client’s procurement challenges, identify transformation

opportunities, develop the future-state solution and articulate a compelling business and digital transformation story. This

is primarily a consulting, solutioning and pre-sales role, rather than a procurement operations role.

Responsibilities

S&P Solution Design & Pre-Sales
Lead or support solution design for Sourcing & Procurement opportunities, including RFPs, RFIs and proactive pursuits.
Understand client requirements, current-state processes and pain points and translate them into a differentiated solution.
Develop future-state operating models, transformation roadmaps, solution architectures and digital interventions.
Create compelling proposal narratives, presentations and solution artifacts for client discussions and solution-defense

sessions.

Work across domain, technology, operations and commercial teams to develop scalable and commercially viable solutions.
Sourcing & Procurement Transformation
Assess S&P processes to identify opportunities for simplification, standardization, digitization and automation.
Apply strong domain understanding across procurement intake and guided buying; strategic sourcing / RFP / RFQ / e

auctions; category management; supplier management and vendor risk; contract management; tactical and tail-spend

buying; requisition-to-PO; and spend analytics.

Translate business challenges into transformation initiatives with measurable business outcomes.
Digital, AI & Technology Solutioning
Identify opportunities to embed GenAI/AI, agentic automation, advanced analytics, intelligent workflows and automation into

procurement processes.

Understand how leading procurement platforms fit within the client’s existing technology landscape.
Develop technology-enabled solutions without losing sight of the underlying process and business case.
Work with specialist technology and product teams to convert business requirements into practical solution designs.
Business Case & Value Articulation
Translate digital interventions into tangible business outcomes such as productivity improvement, cycle-time reduction,

compliance improvement, spend visibility and procurement savings opportunities.

Build transformation hypotheses and support business-case development.
Articulate the “why change, what changes, how technology enables it, and what value the client receives” story.
Develop phased transformation roadmaps rather than isolated technology recommendations.
