Senior Manager-POT

Infosys

About The Position

Infosys BPM’s Digital Procurement Practice is seeking senior leaders to help clients modernize, optimize, and future-proof their procurement organizations. The practice advises clients throughout the digital procurement lifecycle, from strategy and technology selection to implementation optimization and remediation. It is technology-agnostic and acts as an advisor rather than a systems integrator, helping clients identify suitable approaches and maximize value from implementations regardless of the implementation partner. This client-facing leadership role calls for deep procurement subject matter expertise, consulting skills, and the ability to guide complex digital transformation programs. The Senior Manager advises clients on procurement technology and processes, leads workstreams or engagements, manages client expectations, coaches team members, and supports practice growth and business development.

Bachelor’s degree or foreign equivalent from an accredited institution; alternatively, three years of progressive experience in the specialty may substitute for each year of education.
