Posting Start Date: 15/06/2026

Summary

You will be part of the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Project Team, playing a key role in the implementation of a large-scale ERP transformation. As the Procurement Business Analyst, you will lead the design and delivery of end-to-end procurement processes, ensuring alignment with organisational objectives, government policies, and best-in-class procurement practices.

You will partner closely with Procurement stakeholders, Finance, and the appointed System Integrator to translate business needs into scalable, efficient, and compliant ERP solutions. This includes driving process harmonisation, strengthening governance, and embedding digital capabilities across the Procure-to-Pay (P2P) lifecycle.

What to Expect

Lead the end-to-end implementation of procurement processes (e.g., sourcing, vendor management, contract management, requisition-to-pay) within the ERP system.
Engage stakeholders across A*STAR to gather, challenge, and refine procurement requirements, ensuring alignment to policy, compliance, and operational needs.
Facilitate design thinking workshops and user journey mapping sessions to co-create streamlined, user-centric “to-be” procurement processes.
Advise on and implement government procurement policies, controls, and best practices, ensuring auditability and compliance.
Work closely with System Integrators and software vendors to configure and optimise procurement modules, ensuring functional fit and scalability.
Drive process standardisation and automation, identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, reduce cycle times, and enhance spend visibility.
Assess impact of change requests and propose continuous improvements to procurement workflows and controls.
Oversee integration with external systems (e.g., GeBIZ, finance systems, vendor platforms) to ensure seamless data flow across the procurement ecosystem.
Lead and support User Acceptance Testing (UAT) where relevant, ensuring procurement scenarios are comprehensively validated.
Manage delivery within timeline and scope, ensuring high-quality outcomes.

Requirements

3–5 years of experience in ERP implementation, business analysis, or project management, preferably with a focus on Procurement or Procure-to-Pay (P2P) processes.
Strong understanding of procurement operations, policies, and governance, ideally within public sector or regulated environments.
Experience in P2P process design, including sourcing, purchasing, contracts, and vendor management.
Ability to translate business requirements into functional specifications and work effectively with technical teams.
Proven ability to engage stakeholders, facilitate workshops, and drive consensus across diverse groups.
Familiarity with SAP ERP modules (e.g., S/4 HANA, Ariba) and integration with external platforms (e.g., GeBIZ) is advantageous.
Strong analytical, problem-solving, and process improvement mindset.
Self-driven, adaptable, and able to operate independently in a fast-paced project environment.
Experience in design thinking, user journey mapping, and change management is preferred.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels.
