About The Position

The Regional Travel & Expense Lead represents the regional perspective across the end-to-end Travel & Expense ecosystem, ensuring approved global governance, processes, and solutions are practically applicable across countries. The role consolidates regional requirements, identifies risks, barriers, and deviations, and provides structured feedback to global owners. It does not own global policy, system administration, or operational execution, which remain with the relevant governance, system, and delivery organizations. The position serves as a regional interface between global and local HR Operations, Finance, Procurement, HR, Compliance, Tax, GBS, service providers, and other stakeholders. It focuses on country input, regional applicability, process adoption, expense compliance, reimbursement considerations, and structured feedback into the global Travel & Expense framework. Global ownership remains with the relevant governance and business owner roles, while execution in tools and processes remains with GBS or other delivery providers.

Requirements

Deep practical expertise in Travel & Expense processes, including expense policies, auditing, reimbursement, compliance controls, exception handling, VAT/tax implications, and Concur Expense environments.
Practical exposure to both travel and expense processes, rather than specialization in only one domain.
Strong understanding of how travel booking processes interact with downstream expense, reimbursement, reporting, and control processes.
Experience in regional governance, process adoption, stakeholder alignment, and global-to-local translation in complex multi-country environments.

Responsibilities

Assess and consolidate regional and local applicability requirements for global Travel & Expense directives, governance decisions, and framework changes.
Coordinate country input on legal, tax, works council, compliance, and market-specific considerations with relevant local and functional stakeholders.
Surface material deviations, implementation dependencies, and required exceptions through defined governance and escalation paths.
Support a seamless and compliant end-to-end traveler journey across planning, booking, trip execution, expense submission, reimbursement, reporting, and post-trip controls.
Identify process gaps, traveler pain points, compliance risks, and handover issues across the Travel & Expense lifecycle.
Balance traveler experience, compliance requirements, and operational feasibility in regional feedback.
Provide structured regional input on Travel & Expense tools, Concur Expense environments, and related end-to-end processes.
Coordinate country feedback, local dependencies, feasibility considerations, compliance controls, and adoption risks for Concur Travel, Concur Expense, and related process changes.
Consolidate recurring pain points, user feedback, usability concerns, and cross-country issues for relevant global owners, GBS, and service providers.
Identify regional communication, training, and adoption needs arising from approved Travel & Expense changes.
Collaborate with the Communication & Training Lead to support regionally applicable rollout and adoption without owning global strategy, content, or approvals.
