We’re looking for an experienced Product Owner to join at a pivotal stage in its Source-to-Pay (S2P) Transformation Programme.

This is a high-profile role that will sit at the heart of a major enterprise transformation, helping shape the future Source-to-Pay landscape while ensuring operational continuity across the existing estate. The initial focus will be on the discovery phase, working closely with Procurement, Finance, Technology, Architecture, Engineering teams, and third-party partners to define the future-state solution and delivery roadmap.

We’re seeking someone who can hit the ground running, bring deep S2P transformation experience, and understand what good looks like within a complex enterprise environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead product ownership activities across the Source-to-Pay technology landscape.
  • Drive discovery activities, helping define the future-state operating model, processes, technology architecture, and roadmap.
  • Work closely with Procurement, Finance, Technology, Product, Engineering, and Architecture teams to define requirements and shape solution design.
  • Coordinate operational and technology activities, joining processes together across multiple functions and platforms.
  • Manage product backlogs, priorities, dependencies, risks, and delivery plans.
  • Partner with Engineering and Architecture teams to ensure solutions align with enterprise standards and integration requirements.
  • Represent the S2P technology domain within wider transformation programmes.
  • Manage stakeholder engagement across business and technology functions, driving alignment and decision making.
  • Support the transition of new capabilities into the ongoing product and support model.

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience leading or supporting enterprise-scale Source-to-Pay implementation or transformation programmes.
  • Strong understanding of end-to-end Source-to-Pay processes, including procurement, sourcing, supplier management, invoicing, receipting, and payments.
  • Experience operating as a Product Owner, Product Manager, Business Analyst, or Technology Lead within a complex S2P environment.
  • Strong technical understanding of architecture, integrations, system dependencies, and technology landscapes.
  • Experience translating business requirements into technology solutions and product priorities.
  • Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work across Finance, Procurement, Technology, Architecture, Engineering, and third-party suppliers.
  • Strong governance, planning, dependency management, and problem-solving capabilities.
  • Experience working within large, complex enterprise organisations.

Essential Technology Experience

Candidates must have implementation, transformation, or product ownership experience with one or more of:

  • Oracle
  • SoftCo
  • SAP S/4HANA
  • Source-to-Pay platforms and ecosystems
  • Procurement and Finance transformation programmes.
  • Product-led delivery models.
  • Retail or consumer-facing organisations.

This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in a major transformation programme, helping shape Primark’s future Source-to-Pay capability while working with senior stakeholders across Procurement, Finance, and Technology.
