• Sourcing Innovation: Lead Request for Proposal (RfP) processes, service benchmarking, and the onboarding or transition of services to new suppliers.
• Strategic Sourcing: Partner with sourcing managers to align with global sourcing strategies, exploring modern delivery models (such as co-sourcing or end-to-end sourcing) that fit the R landscape.

Methodology& Leadership Innovation

• Agile& DevOps Champion: Drive the implementation of Agile frameworks, DevOps maturity assessments, and automation initiatives to boost operational efficiency across internal and external teams.
• Cultural Leadership: Act as a role model and mentor within the R organization. Foster a proactive, open-minded, and healthy "speak-up" culture.
• VACC Leadership: Embody Servant, Creative, and VACC (Visionary, Architect, Catalyst, Coach) leadership behaviors. Guide peers and less experienced professionals through complex problem-solving while providing constructive feedback.
