We are seeking a senior procurement practitioner to help shape the future of procurement-driven contract lifecycle management, ecosystem integrations, and AI-powered procurement workflows. This is a strategic, cross-functional role that sits at the intersection of the customer, the product, and the market.
As a Procurement SME, you will be the authentic voice of the procurement practitioner inside Agiloft—bringing real source-to-pay (S2P) operational credibility to our product strategy, sales motions, customer implementations, and ecosystem partnerships. You will help Agiloft speak the language of procurement leaders, define the use cases that matter most to them, and translate procurement operational realities into platform capabilities that drive measurable value.
As a senior individual contributor, you will use deep practitioner expertise and independent judgment to translate between procurement stakeholders and Agiloft teams, helping each function understand how procurement processes, priorities, and technology operate in real-world environments. You will influence across functions without formal authority and help connect customer and market needs with Agiloft capabilities.
Success in this role is reflected in stronger procurement relevance across Agiloft—product capabilities grounded in real practitioner needs, greater credibility with procurement buyers, procurement workflows that customers can successfully operationalize, and stronger alignment across the broader source-to-pay ecosystem.
