Key Responsibilities
Vendor Compliance & AI-Powered Controls
- Design and enforce procurement compliance controls aligned with inDrive policies and applicable regulations.
- Implement and continuously improve AI-based controls: automated anomaly detection across vendor spend, contract terms, and approval workflows.
- Leverage AI tools to monitor third-party risk in real time — flagging concentration risks, unusual pricing patterns, and behavioural deviations.
Procurement Review & Contract Risk
- Review procurement requests and contracts for compliance issues, fraud red flags, and financial risks.
- Verify clarity of scope, approval controls, anti-fraud clauses, and vendor penalties.
- Apply AI-assisted contract analysis to surface non-standard terms and missing obligations at scale.
Vendor Due Diligence & KYC
- Conduct KYC and due diligence for vendor onboarding and renewals: financial stability, compliance history, reputational risk.
- Automate KYC workflows using AI screening tools (e.g. Dow Jones Risk & Compliance or equivalents) to reduce manual effort and improve coverage.
- Monitor ownership structures and affiliated relationships to identify conflicts of interest.
Spend Analysis & Data-Driven Insights
- Analyse procurement expenditures by cost centre, category, and project to assess economic rationale and budget adherence.
- Use AI/ML-based spend analytics to detect trends, inefficiencies, and anomalies that regular review would miss.
- Deliver actionable reports to senior management and support strategic sourcing decisions.
Vendor Monitoring, Auditing & Risk Registry
- Maintain an ongoing risk registry with third-party assessments, mitigation plans, and risk rating tracking.
- Conduct post-contract audits and performance reviews; escalate violations and coordinate remediation.
- Implement automated monitoring pipelines to continuously assess vendor behaviour against contract terms.
Reporting & Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Track compliance and anti-fraud metrics; prepare regular reports for senior management.
- Partner with Procurement, Legal, Finance, and etc. on risk mitigation and policy updates.
- Provide training on procurement compliance best practices and AI tool usage across teams.

Experience & Education

- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Law, Compliance, Risk management or a related field is preferred. Professional certifications in compliance or anti-fraud (e.g. ACAMS, ACFE) are a plus.
