Haarlem, Netherlands, 2031
We Are Teva
Our Team, Your Impact
The Director, Procurement Digital Solutions leads the design authority and execution of Teva’s end-to-end procurement technology landscape. The remit is to architect and deliver a cutting-edge, harmonized, and integrated ecosystem - spanning Source-to-Contract (S2C), Procure-to-Pay (P2P), Supplier Lifecycle & SRM, Intake & Orchestration, and supplier-facing portals - where data flows seamlessly across platforms and processes.
This leader owns the multi-year roadmap and enterprise-grade delivery of digital solutions that improve speed, compliance, usability, and resilience. The role partners tightly with IT on platform strategy, integration patterns, security, and the SAP journey (SAP ECC today; S/4HANA rollout ahead), ensuring the procurement stack stays modern, interoperable, and future-ready.
