Vendor Manager

Melbourne (Hybrid)

12 months (potential to become permanent)

Are you the kind of person who thrives on making things run like clockwork, loves connecting with people, and gets a buzz from solving problems? If you've got a few years of experience under your belt and you're hungry for a role where you can make a real impact-this is it.

We're on the hunt for a Vendor Manager who's not just organised and efficient, but also a natural relationship builder. Whether you've worked in customer success, hospitality, retail, operations, or account management, your skills are exactly what we need.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Manage and grow partnerships with our external vendors. You'll be the go-to person for keeping things smooth, professional, and productive.
  • Spot issues before they escalate, dig into the root cause, and come up with smart, practical solutions.
  • Monitor vendor performance and lead regular reviews. You'll help us optimise delivery, reduce costs, and unlock new value.
  • Create frameworks and processes that make vendor management more consistent, efficient, and scalable.
  • Work closely with internal teams to understand their needs and help shape vendor strategies that support business goals.

Key Skills:

  • 3-5 years of experience in relationship management, operations, or service delivery.
  • A positive, proactive mindset-you love learning and adapting.
  • Strong communication skills-you know how to listen, connect, and get your message across.
  • Independent problem-solving chops-you take initiative and own your outcomes.
  • A collaborative spirit-you're a team player who lifts others up.
  • Attention to detail and a knack for staying organised under pressure.

If you're ready to take the next step in your career and join a team that values your ideas, energy, and drive-we'd love to hear from you.
