Job Purpose
The Associate Procurement Analyst is a GCC‑based role responsible for managing sourcing intake requests through the Buy Desk, executing tail‑spend and low‑complexity sourcing activities, and supporting supplier due diligence, onboarding, and contract execution under established category strategies.
This is a newly created role within Assurant’s sourcing organization, playing a critical part in the implementation and success of the Buy Desk operating model. The role is expected to operate with a high level of initiative, responsiveness, and execution discipline, ensuring that tactical sourcing needs are addressed efficiently while maintaining procurement governance.
