JOB DESCRIPTION SUMMARY

The Director, Procurement Governance & Systems – Operations leads the day-to-day administration, performance, and continuous improvement of Greystar's procurement governance infrastructure. Procurement Governance & Systems includes end-to-end Source-to-Settle (S2S) process as its core operational responsibility. S2S is comprised of two halves: Upstream Functions (Source-to-Contract), which include supplier compliance, bidding, and contract management; and Downstream Functions (Procure-to-Pay), which include procurement/purchasing, invoice processing, and payments. This role operates as a force multiplier for the Senior Director, ensuring governance infrastructure runs reliably at scale while proactively identifying and implementing efficiency gains, process enhancements, and system optimizations as business needs evolve. The Director will partner closely with Energy & Sustainability Services (ESS), Finance/Accounting, Treasury, Legal, Risk, and regional operations teams across the entire company to keep governance infrastructure audit-ready, efficient, and customer-service oriented.

JOB DESCRIPTION

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Upstream Functions (Source-to-Contract)

• Own day-to-day administration of Upstream S2S functions — supplier compliance, bidding, and contract management — ensuring consistent, reliable operation across regions and business units.
• Supplier Compliance: own operational execution of the Supplier Compliance Program, including maintenance and enhancement of the supporting SOP, the Supplier Performance Agreement (SPA), Ts&Cs and supplier-facing onboarding forms across the company.
• Supplier Compliance: manage the supplier credentialing and monitoring ecosystem in partnership with NetVendor and related third-party risk platforms; lead compliance workstreams against regulatory deadlines and resolve non-conformance issues.
• Supplier Compliance: support ongoing supplier ESG/emissions data collection (e.g., Scope 3) in partnership with related teams, ensuring methodology aligns with GHG (Greenhouse Gas) Protocol standards and platform capabilities.
• Bidding: administer and continuously improve bid management processes and tools, ensuring bidding activity is consistently documented, auditable, and aligned to sourcing policy.
• Contract Management: oversee contract lifecycle administration — repository management, key-term tracking, renewal/expiration monitoring, and compliance with contracting standards — partnering with Legal where needed.
• Monitor Upstream process performance, proactively identifying inefficiencies or gaps and driving enhancements to improve speed, accuracy, and user experience.

Downstream Functions (Procure-to-Pay)

• Own day-to-day administration of Downstream S2S functions — procurement/purchasing, invoice processing, and payments — ensuring consistent, reliable operation across regions and business units.
• Administer procurement/purchasing workflows and system configuration, ensuring policy compliance and a positive user experience.
• Oversee invoice processing performance, partnering with Accounts Payable and Finance to resolve exceptions, reduce cycle time, and maintain accurate audit trails.
• Monitor payment processing and controls in partnership with Treasury/Finance, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance with internal controls.
• Monitor Downstream process performance and system health, proactively identifying inefficiencies, bottlenecks, or gaps and driving enhancements to improve speed, accuracy, and user experience.
• Partner with technology and platform teams to scope, prioritize, and implement system configuration changes, automation opportunities, and process improvements as business needs evolve.

Systems, Tools & Operating Model Oversight

• Maintain and evolve procurement governance policies, standards, and processes spanning both Upstream and Downstream functions, reinforcing the function's role as governance and oversight — distinct from transactional procurement.
• Maintain current-state process documentation and training materials across the S2S lifecycle, ensuring they stay accurate as enhancements are introduced.
• Manage tools and platform administration including the supplier management platform transition and ongoing enhancements.
• Oversee related portfolio visibility tools, partnering with the OPO (Operations Processes and Optimization team) on SOP updates and cross-functional compliance.
• Serve as a point of escalation for supplier and contract disputes, driving issues to resolution and documenting root cause and corrective actions.
• Support headcount and resourcing analysis across the initiative portfolio, identifying capacity gaps and recommending resourcing or process solutions to the Senior Director.
• Develop internal communications, training materials, and enablement content for governance programs, systems changes, and supplier-facing processes.
• Own governance and administration of existing and future procurement programs — including the Diverse Supplier Program and other enterprise-wide procurement initiatives as they are introduced — ensuring each program is administered consistently, auditably, and in alignment with broader S2S governance standards.

BASIC KNOWLEDGE & QUALIFICATIONS

• 5–8 years of relevant experience in procurement, supplier risk/compliance, or enterprise governance program management.
• Demonstrated experience administering and optimizing large-scale ERP/procurement systems spanning Source-to-Contract and Procure-to-Pay processes in a steady-state operating environment.
• Working knowledge of supplier compliance, third-party risk management, and credentialing platforms
• Familiarity with bidding/sourcing processes and contract lifecycle management practices.
• Experience operating across multiple regions/geographies with sensitivity to local regulatory and operational nuance.
• Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent initiatives and shifting priorities in a fast-paced, matrixed enterprise environment.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including experience preparing materials for senior leadership and steering committees.
• Bachelor's degree in business, supply chain, finance, or related field, or equivalent professional experience.

SPECIALIZED SKILLS

• Systems thinking — able to map policy-to-platform alignment and anticipate impacts across Upstream (Source-to-Contract) and Downstream (Procure-to-Pay) functions.
• Strong cross-functional influence without direct authority; skilled at aligning ESS, Finance, Treasury, Legal, and regional teams around a shared roadmap.
• Comfortable balancing steady-state operational rigor with a continuous-improvement mindset; able to translate operational feedback into a practical enhancement roadmap.
• Detail-oriented program and supplier management skills, including SLA/metric design and non-conformance resolution.
• Customer-service orientation toward internal stakeholders and suppliers, reinforcing governance as an enabler rather than a barrier.
• Self-sufficient and resourceful; able to operate effectively amid resource constraints while maintaining program momentum.
