GURUGRAM: Sun Life Global Solutions posted a full time procurement vacancy for Gurugram on Monday, November 9, 2026, seeking graduates with at least nine years of relevant experience. The Senior Specialist position covers purchasing checks, contract records and payment reconciliation. The company's official contact page places its local office at Pioneer Square in Sector 62, near Golf Course Extension Road.
The vacancy carries reference JR00128016 and is listed under Office Administration. Its experience requirement covers procurement operations, tactical buying, purchasing, contract administration, the process from procurement through payment, or a related function. Applicants can read the official job posting before deciding whether their work history matches the requirements.
Experience and purchasing checks are central to the role
A bachelor's degree or an equivalent graduation qualification is required. The employer also asks for previous practical experience as a buyer, including responsibility for checking business requirements and carrying out or approving procurement transactions. The advertised duties put substantial emphasis on reviewing work before approval and keeping evidence of the decisions taken.
For purchase requisitions, the specialist will check the business requirement, the sourcing or contract reference, supplier information, financial coding, approval records and supporting documents. Contract records must also be reviewed for accuracy and completeness. Where information needs correction, the employee will explain what the requesting team or buyer must change.
Another responsibility is creating and updating contract terms when an agreement is new, renewed, amended or revised. Those records must remain consistent with the approved commercial and contractual documents. The role also requires comparisons between contracts, purchase orders and invoices to identify differences in amounts, dates, scope, suppliers, currencies or reference details.
Closing or cancelling a purchase order requires validation and communication with the affected teams. The posting identifies business teams, finance, accounts payable, suppliers and procurement among those stakeholders. When a transaction falls outside the normal process, the specialist must investigate the cause, coordinate a correction, record the decision and escalate policy or control risks when necessary.
What candidates need to demonstrate
The listing requires advanced working knowledge of SAP Ariba for procurement tasks. Relevant areas include requisitions, purchase orders, contract records or terms, supplier catalogues and transaction approvals. This requirement appears alongside knowledge of purchasing controls, invoice reconciliation, purchasing policies and the handling of exceptions.
Applicants are also expected to have experience reviewing the quality of transactions, checking work prepared by others, granting approvals or exercising operational controls. The employer asks for evidence of procurement process improvements or change delivery. Project management experience must cover planning, governance, risks, issues, communication with stakeholders and tracking execution.
Professional certification in procurement, supply chain or project management is described as an advantage. Experience in a global organisation, a shared services operation or a structure involving several reporting relationships is preferred. These sit alongside the essential education and experience requirements, rather than replacing them.
The company wants clear written and spoken communication, attention to detail, analytical ability and sound judgement within established policies. Coaching colleagues and explaining corrections professionally are part of the role. It also expects the specialist to organise competing work, take responsibility for outcomes and maintain consistent standards when transaction volumes are high.
Global schedules and measures of performance
Working hours require flexibility across United States and Asian business hours. The successful applicant must be willing to work rotational schedules and adjust hours to meet coverage, team and business needs. The listing does not provide a fixed daily shift. That makes the schedule requirement a relevant consideration for Gurugram applicants assessing the position.
Performance will be assessed through the accuracy of transactions at the first review, compliance with policies and controls, and delivery against service commitments. The employer also identifies the handling of older pending items, consistency between contract and payment records, documented resolution of exceptions, and measurable process improvements as indicators of success.
Supplier catalogue maintenance forms another part of the work. It includes reviewing content, checking data quality, coordinating with stakeholders, resolving problems and periodically updating records. Across the wider workload, the specialist must keep review, approval and exception records ready for audit and report clearly on transaction volumes, risks and dependencies.
Check the reference and deadline on the official portal
The employer's deadline fields differ: the description gives 10/11/2026, while the portal's separate end date is November 11, 2026. No closing hour or time zone is specified. Applicants should check the current posting directly and avoid assuming that applications remain available throughout either date. The listing was accepting applications when checked during this run.
The official company contact page verifies the Sector 62 office address, but the vacancy itself specifies Gurugram without assigning a particular floor. For other separately advertised local roles, readers can consult the earlier reports on contract posts in Manesar, a forensic analyst vacancy and a consulting director position. Each has its own eligibility conditions and application process.
