What I'm looking for
I’m a Supply Chain Operations professional with 3+ years of experience in Procure-to-Pay (P2P), vendor coordination, and cost & freight validation. At Accenture, I support West US clients by owning PO lifecycle management and resolving discrepancies before Accounts Payable processing.
