About You We get excited about candidates, like you, because... • You have 8+ years of strategic sourcing, category management, procurement, agency management, or vendor-management experience, including deep expertise across multiple Marketing categories. • You are recognized as a subject-matter expert in Marketing sourcing, agency management, supplier strategy, or commercial governance, with the ability to bring networks of stakeholder
