About this role

Phillips 66 & YOU - Together we can fuel the future   As Advisor III, Procurement Purchasing , you will help deliver reliable, value-driven procurement support for significant project categories and programs. You will partner with stakeholders, suppliers, and cross-functional teams to make informed sourcing, supplier, and contract decisions that support safe, efficient, and cost-effective operations.   What You’ll Do

Own and lead category plans for categories or programs, adjusting sourcing tactics based on market dynamics, business needs, and evolving supplier landscapes. Independently lead routine-to-moderately complex supplier and internal negotiations - including price, service levels, and standard contract terms - balancing trade-offs and escalating only atypical or high-value issues. Design and manage contract structures for categories, proactively addressing commercial and operational risk, and leading issue resolution directly with suppliers and stakeholders. Make sourcing, supplier selection, and contract decisions within defined category or portfolio authority limits; frame issues and recommendations clearly when escalation is required. Lead supplier performance management and improvement plans for key suppliers in assigned categories, balancing quality, service, cost, and risk across the supplier portfolio. Use financial analyses - including scenario modeling, sensitivity analysis, and risk-adjusted returns - to advise on major sourcing decisions and category strategies. Anticipate changes in customer, regulatory, or market conditions and proactively adjust category and supplier strategies to support emerging business priorities. Build analyses and dashboards that synthesize procurement insights and recommendations to directly inform sourcing and category decisions. Serve as primary procurement contact for key middle-management and some senior management stakeholders; influence decisions, resolve conflicts, and align multiple parties behind category plans. Build and manage project plans for procurement initiatives, proactively addressing risks, interdependencies, and compliance requirements. Lead cross-functional project teams; mentor junior Advisors through knowledge sharing and active coaching.
