Mark Little
@marklittle1
I lead enterprise procurement transformation, vendor strategy, and AI-driven operations at scale.
What I'm looking for
At Meta, I lead infrastructure and technology procurement operations, clearing $78M+ USD in procurement value in a single day and eliminating a 900-item MCOR backlog within two weeks. I redesign workflows, align sourcing, engineering, finance, and operations teams, and use dashboards and automation to improve delivery and decision-making.
I've reduced procurement SLA timelines from more than 100 days to 29 days, developed SOPs, and built procurement capability across 17+ professionals. I also lead a team of 10+ procurement professionals, coaching colleagues and removing operational blockers.
Previously at Deloitte Canada, I designed third-party risk management frameworks, vendor segmentation models, governance mandates, and sourcing strategies for major financial institutions. At PwC Canada, I delivered $180K+ CAD in savings on one contract, improved vendor risk compliance to 100%, and reduced contract execution timelines by 30%.
I bring procurement and commercial leadership from Canada, the UK, and Northern Ireland, with experience across technology, SaaS, infrastructure, consulting, and indirect spend. I'm building agentic procurement workflows with Claude, ChatGPT, MetaMate, and Manus so teams can spend more time on strategy.
