Global Principal Category Manager for Travel & Expense
We are looking for a forward-thinking and transformation-driven expert to take our general Travel & Expense (T&E;) function to the next level.
This is not a typical operational role. You will redefine how we manage travel, expense, and employee experience globally — shifting T&E; from a transactional process into a strategic, data-driven, and future-ready capability.
As part of this journey, we have recently introduced a new T&E; platform, which now needs to be scaled, embedded, and continuously optimized across our global organization.
You will play a key role in driving adoption, harmonizing processes, and unlocking the full value of this platform, while shaping the future of spend management across a complex, global environment.

Define and implement a forward-looking global T&E; strategy
Align travel and expense programs with business priorities, cost optimization, and sustainability goals
Position T&E; as a strategic enabler, not just a control function

Ensure successful global rollout, adoption, and continuous improvement of the newly introduced T&E; platform
