Vendor Manager careers

A Vendor Manager oversees relationships with suppliers and vendors, ensuring that the organisation receives quality products and services at competitive prices. You might work in industries such as retail, manufacturing, or technology, focusing on negotiating contracts, managing vendor performance, and coordinating supply chain activities. Vendor Managers aim to optimise vendor partnerships to support business objectives.

Vendor Managers play a crucial role in maintaining supply chain efficiency. You’ll need strong negotiation skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple vendor relationships. You’ll collaborate with internal teams and external vendors to ensure that agreements are met and that any issues are resolved promptly.
