Flexiple is a managed marketplace that helps global companies build high-performing teams and GCCs in India.
Role Overview
As a Procurement Operations Manager, you will own the procure-to-pay process end to end - purchase requisitions, approvals, POs, and invoicing - and keep the function running on accurate data and tight SLAs. The focus is operational excellence, not category strategy.

- Drive process improvement and strengthen compliance controls
- Ideal Candidate Profile
- 3 to 7 years in procurement operations, P2P, or buying support roles
- A process-first mindset with strong attention to detail
- Hands-on with ERP or P2P systems and operational reporting
- Clear written and spoken English and a reliable remote-work setup
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in pharma, life sciences, or a regulated environment
- Familiarity with process-improvement methods (Lean or Six Sigma)
- Exposure to SAP Ariba, Coupa, or similar platforms
What We Offer
- An operations-leadership seat at a global pharma company's India hub
