Responsibilities

  • Vendor Sourcing & Negotiation: Initiate outreach to new vendors and independently manage mid-tier vendor accounts to negotiate pricing, catalog offerings, and affiliate terms directly.
  • Cross-Functional Contribution: Support and contribute to larger vendor negotiations led by managers, developing a working understanding of global vendor landscapes and pricing structures.
  • Catalog Operations: Develop deep fluency in how the redemption catalog works end-to-end - fulfillment capabilities, root-level navigation, and how clients actually use the marketplace day to day.
  • Communication & Reporting: Clearly relay vendor and catalog updates across departments, clients, and vendor partners, keeping their manager informed on account status and opportunities.
  • Track record of directly negotiating pricing or commercial terms with external partners (not just supporting negotiations).
