Job Description:

We are searching for the best talent for Senior Specialist, Source-to-Contract (S2C)​.

Purpose:

Johnson & Johnson is seeking a Senior Specialist, Source-to-Contract (S2C), to join the Source-to-Contract (S2C) Enablement, Americas team within Global Procurement Service Delivery. This technically-focused individual contributor advances the effectiveness, efficiency, and experience of the Americas S2C organization through data, automation, and digital enablement across North America and LATAM. The role partners closely with Category, Finance, Legal, Technology, and business stakeholders to deliver scalable analytics, tools, and automated workflows that drive measurable improvements in operational efficiency, savings visibility, and stakeholder experience.

You will be responsible for :

· Automation & Digital Tools: Design, build, and maintain Power Apps, Power Automate flows, SharePoint Lists, and Microsoft 365 solutions that streamline S2C intake, routing, approvals, and reporting; support automation and AI initiatives across the S2C lifecycle.

· Analytics & Reporting: Own and advance S2C performance analytics; build Power BI / Tableau dashboards and Excel / Power Query (M) models that deliver insights on throughput, savings, and stakeholder experience.

· Process Optimization: Implement cost-reduction sourcing strategies and standardize process improvements across departments; develop and maintain playbooks, DTPs, and SOPs for consistent execution at scale.

· Supplier & Spend Analysis: Conduct spend analysis, supplier scoring, and savings reporting to support sourcing decisions and category strategies.

· Stakeholder Enablement: Develop relationships with internal stakeholders, design training materials and user guides, and facilitate working sessions that drive adoption of new tools and processes.

· Compliance & Coaching: Ensure adherence to internal policies and regulatory requirements; coach more junior colleagues; apply J&J's Credo and Leadership Imperatives in daily interactions.

Who You Are

A technically curious, data-driven problem solver who enjoys building solutions as much as analyzing them. You are a self-directed builder who thrives in ambiguity, energized by turning manual S2C work into scalable, automated processes. You are collaborative and influential, partnering confidently across Category, Finance, Legal, and Technology teams. You have the agility to collaborate with stakeholders across all Regions. Above all, you are Credo-led, bringing integrity, accountability, and care into every interaction.
