AI Business Transformation & Design Strategist - 11396

What You'll Do:

1. Vision Setting & Agentic Strategy
• AI Opportunity Mapping: Lead workshops to deconstruct legacy procurement workflows and identify where Coupa Agents (native or custom) can drive the highest ROI.
• Agentic Deployment Strategy: Help clients determine the "where" and "how" of agent deployment, deciding which processes should be fully autonomous vs. human-in-the-loop.
• Target Operating Model Design: Define the future-state metrics (KPIs) that the AI transformation must achieve, ensuring they align with board-level goals.
2. Readiness & Readiness Assessment
• Maturity Audit: Evaluate the customer’s AI Readiness across three lenses: Culture (willingness to trust agents), Data (is the intelligence layer fueled correctly?), and Process (is the workflow "agent-ready"?).
• Blocker Mitigation: Identify internal policy or workforce hurdles early and partner with leadership to dismantle them.
3. Change Management & Workforce Evolution
• Organizational Change (OCM): Advise on workforce shifts, including the creation of AI Centers of Excellence (COE) and the retraining of staff to manage an "AI Workforce."
• Policy Transformation: Guide customers on updating internal governance to allow for autonomous agent actions (e.g., automated contract redlining or tail-spend negotiation).
4. Cross-Functional Leadership
• Architect Collaboration: Act as the "Tone Setter" for the technical team. You define the Vision; the Agentic Architect defines the Build.
• Roadmap Integration: Bridge the gap between the customer’s long-term transformation goals and the Coupa Product Roadmap to ensure the client is always ahead of the curve.

What You Will Bring to Coupa:

• Agentic AI Expertise: Deep understanding of the GenAI and Agentic AI landscape (LLMs, RAG, autonomous agents). You must understand what agents can and cannot do today.
• Procurement/Finance Domain: Professional fluency in Source-to-Pay (S2P) processes. You need to understand the "Legacy" pain points to architect the "Agentic" solution.
• Executive Presence: Possess the dual-fluency to secure C-Suite buy-in on AI vision while simultaneously collaborating with functional leads to map that vision to day-to-day S2P workflows.
• Proven Digital Transformation Leadership: 10+ years of experience leading large-scale, cross-functional digital transformation initiatives at the Enterprise level.
• Coupa Experience: Previous experience with the Coupa platform is a plus, but we value Agent-First Thinking above platform familiarity.
• Consulting Pedigree: Experience in Tier-1 management consulting or leading massive digital transformation projects.
• Referenceability: Leading the client through the "25 Compose Engagements" to a state of strong, public advocacy.
• Agent Density: Increasing the number of active, high-value agents deployed within a client’s ecosystem.
• Executive Impact: Delivery of the Executive Impact Report that proves a measurable shift in operational efficiency.
