Company Description
Statistics show that women and underrepresented groups tend to apply to jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. Sobi encourages you to change that statistic and apply. Rarely do candidates meet 100% of the qualifications. We look forward to your application!
At Sobi, the work we do every day redefines the standards of care and transform the lives of people living with rare diseases.
As a diverse team of entrepreneurial people, we are passionate about our growth journey towards becoming a global leader, making a difference for rare disease patients, moving quickly and always challenging the status quo.
We are committed to an inclusive, sustainable and flexible workplace that fosters growth and development.

The Spend Coach team supports the business on indirect purchases, ensuring cost efficiency and compliance. Every purchase runs through ServiceNow, from quick approvals to full-scale tenders, so no two days look the same.
This is a hybrid role at our Stockholm headquarters, with on-site presence a minimum of three days per week. You will report to our Head of Indirect Procurement.

- Prepare monthly reports, monitor KPIs and log agreements in the contract management system
- Support learning and development in the team, including coaching and onboarding new colleagues
- Own and govern the indirect procurement part of the S2P process in ServiceNow, in line with business objectives
- Maintain and optimise S2P workflows to drive efficiency and automation
- Translate business needs into system functionality and process improvements
- Represent Indirect Procurement and lead the S2P module in the ServiceNow governing forum
- Act as escalation point and contact for stakeholders on S2P issues, gathering feedback to inform future improvements
- Stay current on ServiceNow capabilities and use new features such as AI to enhance process performance and reporting
