- Maintain strong supplier relationships, resolving queries quickly and effectively
- Track and manage licence and support renewals, ensuring deadlines are met and reducing last-minute requests
- Produce regular reports on spend, invoices, and purchase orders for stakeholders using OBI
- Improve cost efficiency by closing unused or outdated POs and releasing surplus budget
- Provide guidance and support to internal teams on PO and invoicing processes
