This role will own Procurement's knowledge ecosystem—SOPs, templates, tools guidance, playbooks, and communications—so teams can execute faster, with clarity, and with the right controls.

In addition to content ownership, you will document current-state processes, identify where users experience the most friction, and translate those insights into clear enablement guidance and prioritized roadmaps (in partnership with process owners).

This is a high-impact opportunity to shape how Procurement is experienced across the organization—making processes clearer, faster, and more scalable while maintaining the right governance and controls. You'll reduce friction for employees by creating the content and knowledge foundation people use, and you'll help teams move faster by documenting processes, surfacing the biggest friction points, and turning them into prioritized enablement roadmaps.

• Identify top friction areas through stakeholder interviews, data intake, and cycle-time/rework signals; synthesize themes into clear problem statements and enablement implications.
• Translate friction into action by turning process insights into:
• Clear user guidance (decision trees, checklists, FAQs, what to expect" walkthroughs)
• Standardized templates and "golden" SOPs
• Prioritized enablement + documentation roadmaps aligned to business needs and compliance requirements (partnering with process owners for execution)
• Standardize SOPs, templates, and communications to reduce cycle time, minimize rework, and support compliance requirements.
• Develop internal communications that proactively notify stakeholders of process changes, enhancements, new tools/features, and key reminders (launch notes, release comms, "what changed" summaries).
• Create clear, user-friendly guidance for end users and internal teams (how-to guides, quick-starts, role-based documentation, training modules).
• Translate policy into practical guidance that aligns with cross-functional requirements (Security, Legal, Finance, Accounting, Tax, IT, HR) while remaining simple and usable.
• Use data for storytelling—turn metrics and insights into compelling narratives that highlight Procurement wins, improvements, and the evolving end-user experience.
• Own enablement content for key workflows (intake, approvals, contracting, supplier onboarding, invoicing, T&E) content and knowledge management ownership; not operational execution.
• Partner with SMEs and operators to capture tribal knowledge and convert it into durable, scalable documentation and training.
• Continuously improve the enablement experience through feedback loops, stakeholder interviews, content performance/usage analytics, and periodic content audits.

Required Skills

• 5+ years (or equivalent) in knowledge management, enablement, program/content management, operations, or process documentation in a fast-paced environment.
• Proven ability to create and maintain SOPs, templates, playbooks, and training content that are clear, scalable, and adopted.
