Job Description & Summary

About the role:

Are you ready to shape the future of procurement through digital transformation and AI? Do you have the drive to help global organisations unlock value across their Source-to-Pay functions through technology, data and intelligent automation? Join PwC's Digital Procurement team and play a leading role in delivering innovative, tech-enabled procurement transformations. You will help clients reimagine procurement through digital capabilities, data-led decision-making and emerging AI solutions - driving efficiency, resilience and strategic value across their operations.

As a Senior Manager, you will lead complex transformation programmes across the S2P lifecycle, with a strong focus on P2P optimisation, digital enablement and AI-driven innovation and automation. You will be responsible for shaping and delivering large-scale programmes, managing senior stakeholders and leading multidisciplinary teams to deliver tangible outcomes. As an SME in digital procurement, you will guide clients on market-leading best practices, bringing deep insight into industry trends, leading technologies and innovative operating models. You will challenge existing ways of working, provide strategic direction and ensure solutions are aligned to both current needs and future-facing capabilities.

You will work closely with PwC's strategic alliance partners to bring leading technology capabilities into client solutions and collaborate across our broader Consulting practice, including Legal, Finance, Supply Chain and AI specialists, to deliver integrated, end-to-end digital transformations. By combining deep procurement expertise with cross-functional insight and ecosystem capabilities, you will help clients unlock sustainable value and future-ready procurement functions. The dynamic nature of this position requires adaptability and comfort working with diverse stakeholders in ambiguous situations, encouraging innovative thinking and exploration of potential rather than limitations.

This role can be based in London, Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Glasgow, Edinburgh, or Belfast.

What your days will look like:

• Lead large-scale, end-to-end S2P technology transformation programmes, with a particular focus on enterprise-wide transformation, from mobilisation through to sustained value realisation
• Define the strategic vision and target architecture for digital procurement, aligning business objectives with technology capabilities, data strategy and operating model design
• Oversee the end-to-end implementation lifecycle (design, build, deployment, hypercare), ensuring delivery excellence while delegating day-to-day execution to programme teams
• Lead multi-disciplinary teams across PwC and client organisations, fostering collaboration across technology, functional and AI specialists to deliver integrated transformation outcomes
• Support clients in defining their AI strategy for procurement, including opportunity identification, business case development, and deployment roadmaps
• Design and implement AI-enabled workflows and agents, integrating with procurement platforms and enterprise systems
• Act as a trusted advisor to senior client stakeholders, shaping procurement transformation agendas
• Lead large-scale programme delivery, including governance, risk management and stakeholder alignment

This role is for you if:

• Strong experience across the end-to-end S2P lifecycle, with deep expertise in P2P processes and optimisation highly preferable
• Proven track record delivering technology-enabled procurement transformations (design through to implementation)
• Experience working with leading procurement and orchestration platforms (e.g. Coupa, SAP Ariba, Agiloft, Icertis, Zip, Oro etc.)
• Experience designing and delivering digital workflows, automation and process optimisation
• Experience identifying and implementing AI / GenAI use cases in procurement or adjacent domains
• Understanding of AI workflows, agents and automation tools (e.g. LLM-based solutions, orchestration tools, intelligent automation)
• Ability to bridge business problems with AI solutions, translating concepts into practical implementation
• Experience leading large, complex programmes and teams
• Willingness to travel based on client needs

What you'll receive from us:

No matter where you may be in your career or personal life, our benefits are designed to add value and support, recognising and rewarding you fairly for your contributions.
